I feel like a little kid getting ready for the Ganza. I can't wipe the "I want to win the Ostertag" smile off my face. I am currently watching the Florida State/North Carolina game. Carolina looks so good, great "d," very solid offense and are 9 deep. A very good pick. I think the top seeds will be, North Carolina, UCLA, Memphis and Kansas. That is my first prognosticating of the season.
I am sure you are beginning to size teams up; watch the conference tournaments this weekend to get a glimpse of who's who. Remember, look at the all important RPI, that will, and should determine who will advance in your bracket. Of course, if you want to lower your wimp factor (see http://www.ganza.com), pick a lower seed for the always exciting upset.
TWO more days...hee-hee, giggle, hee-hee.
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.
