Welcome to the 12th annual Brooktown NCAA Pool, with, as you know, the best spreadsheet in the bracket business.

Please complete all sections on the spreadsheet, you can download it at the bottom of the page - https://sites.google.com/site/brooktownleague/ncaa-tournament-1 and email it back to BrooktownNCAA@gmail.com

PICKS ARE DUE BY 1AM THURSDAY MARCH 17TH

This year the NCAA has gone out of their way to annoy me and add 4 play-in games, 2 on Tuesday and 2 on Wed.

If you look at the attached sheet you will see these areas highlighted in yellow, for all intensive purposes, and to keep scoring uniform with years past, I am ignoring these games, and you do not have to pick them.

For example in the first game, on my sheet it says Ohio St. vs. Play in Game 1 - you can pick Ohio St, or you can pick either UT-San Antonio or Alabama St.

Here are the Tuesday/Wednesday Pay in Games:

Play in Game 1 - winner to play Ohio St

16-UT-San Antonio

16-Alabama St

Play in Game 2 - winner to play West Virginia

12-UAB

12-Clemson

Play in Game 3 - winner to play Georgetown

11-USC

11-VCU

Play in Game 4 - winner to play Pittsburgh

16-NC-Asheville

16-Ark. Little Rock

You don't have to pick the winner of the play in game, but you can use any of those teams to advance in their first round games and beyond.

That's it kids, remember to download the attached sheet to your computer, fill it out, save it and email it back to me. Enter as often as you like and feel free to pass it along to as many people as you wish.

Also remember to type in the TEAM NAME IN THE BOX ON THE SPREADSHEET, not their seed number.
