Tennessee went down.
Duke went down.
Georgetown went down.
North Carolina won a squeaker.
UCLA and Memphis rolled.
And we have some newbies...Portland State coached by my friend, Ken Bone. American, they showed a solid effort in their conference championship, and the winner, in the "we-have-never-been-here-before-but-our-university-name-is-really-long," category is... Ganza Prognosticators let me introduce to you the, University of Maryland Baltimore County.
The Bracket will be set tomorrow evening. Can you smell it? Feel it? Taste it? Ahhh, March.
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.
