The Basketball Tournament Prediction Extravaganza is a nationwide prediction competition between basketball fans based upon the Annual Men's College Basketball Tournament. We feel the clean family humor, salty wit and sarcasm, and interesting year-to-year statistics make the 'Ganza, as we affectionately call it, one of the most enjoyable tournament contests on the Internet. We hope you join us and come to the same conclusion.

Although the format is similar to an office "pool," the Extravaganza is NOT a pool -- no prize money is awarded! In fact, our slogan is "This Ain't No Pool!" The prognosticator who scores the most points in the 'Ganza is awarded the Coveted Ostertag Plaque, one of the finest examples of laminated pressboard available and easily the most talked about sports award in my house. The Ostertag Plaque has often been mentioned in the same sentence as the Lombardi Trophy and the Stanley Cup. Especially if you read the previous sentence out loud.

The votes have been counted...

Not much of a surprise, your favorite Ganza Brass is the incomparable Benevolent Grand Pooh-bah. We at Brass HQ are proud of our fearless leader, and it seems that you prognosticators are too. The Director had a whopping 6 votes whilst the Deputy had 1 vote. We look at things through rose colored glasses here at the Ganza hq, and assume that 1 vote is representative of the Deputy being number 1 in our book. Way to go Deputy Dan.

Well, in college hoops news the Div II Gardener Webb Dawgs pounded the #20 Kentucky Wildcats in a stunner. I don't know about you but if that keeps up the KU Wildcats aren't getting passed round 1 for me. My beloved Gonzaga Bulldogs are off to a good start and are deep, look out elite 8.

Looking forward to keeping up with you all through out the season. Ahhh, March is looming!
