    Bracket troubles reported on ESPN

    Check out Eric Karabell's round-up here

    According to an article on ESPN.(go.)com, of over 3 million brackets filled out for the NCAA tournament, only 35,000 had GMU advancing this far (with 7k predicting a Wichita State-George Mason game in the Sweet 16). Not one person has all of the brackets correct, and only 12 people have 15 of their Sweet 16 picks still in the tournament. However...about 500 have lost ALL of their teams already and another 4200 with only one team left. Almost 500 people have either GMU or Bradley winning the entire tournament. Haha. Fan loyalty can be...interesting.

    I had a friend who doesn't watch any kind of sports fill out a bracket. She picked Oral Roberts to win it all, because the name made her laugh.

    By the way, I had Wichita State, but not George Mason. I picked GMU to lose 2nd round.

    I knew it had to be ugly. my brackets are blown sky high, and yet one of them is still ranked in the 93rd percentile.
    Common sense is what tells you the Earth is flat.
