Bracketology Contest

After the tournament is announced we will compare the bracketologys of Ryan Steawart, Joe Smeltzer, and Bradley Stewart.  Look at the Bracketology page for matchups for Bradley's bracketology.  The formula used is This rubric awards 3 points for each team correctly picked, 3 points for each team correctly seeded, and 1 point for each team not seeded correctly but was plus or minus one seed line (to compensate for procedural moves the NCAA does to make the bracket).  With 68 teams, a perfect score is 408. My goal is to have the points and ranks finished by Thursday.

Standings: 

1. 67/42/61 Bradley 346
2. 65/34/61 Ryan 324
3. 66/33/55 Joe 319
