Weather Forums March Madness 2024


Recommended Posts

Welcome to March Madness 2024, Weather Forums version. I have found 106 recent posters and they are ranked according to a formula, shown below.

0.5 * (Member's Posts/Most Posts) + 0.5 * (Member's Reputation/Highest Reputation)

The top 68 members were picked. The results of this contest are based on the actual results of the NCAA Tournament. Colleges are ranked according to the BPI Tournament Rankings on ESPN.com. The ranked members have been matched up with the ranked colleges. If your college (in the table below) advances in the NCAA Tournament, you also advance. Can you make it to the Sweet 16 or the Elite 8 or the Final 4? Only one member wins, which will be determined by April 8.

You can see the rankings and the brackets below. Brackets will be updated as the NCAA Tournament takes place.

EDIT: I originally had incorrect numbers for T-Town. This has changed his ranking to 40 and the members previously ranked 40-47 are now ranked 41-48.

Did I win yet? 

When does this thing start? 

Elevation 580’ Location a few miles east of I-5 on the Snohomish Co side of the Snohomish/Skagit border. I love snow/cold AND sun/warmth!

being the resident troll really does pay off.

What's great is I picked UCONN in my real bracket. I also know my first round opponent personally, so that should add a bit of motivation to this grudge match.
