    I had UConn, UCLA, Texas, and Boston College.

    Most people didn't even correctly pick a Final Four team so i'm happy.

    I had UCLA, LSU, Uconn, BC, so I had 2 out of the 4. Even I wasn't biased enough to pick the Gators. [​IMG]

    I went with Villanova, UConn, LSU, and Gonzaga.
    1/4, Good thing for my LSU bias because I almost picked Duke to win their division.

    I had Duke, UCLA, UConn, Florida. So I got 2/4 which is pretty solid for this years crazy bracket.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Fast Luck:</div><div class="quote_post">I had Florida and LSU. Who else had those two??</div>Oops, this turns out not to be true. Okay, it IS true, but I did two brackets on Yahoo, and my JBB bracket did NOT have LSU and Florida. That was my bracket for the Bucknuts forum. [​IMG]

    Mine had Iowa instead of LSU on Yahoo, but I did one on facebook with LSU in it.

    Yeea, I had LSU and UCLA right. But I picked wrong on UConn and Villanova. I'm doing pretty damn good on my bracket still.

    If I did more than one bracket like it seems you guys did, I probably could have gotten one more team, but they're not that important to me, so I just filled out one on a whim, and the only team I had survive was UCLA. I had Duke, UConn, and Ohio State filling the rest out. I still think Ohio State could have won it all if they had just beaten Georgetown too. Dials would have made Noah look stupid, and they match up well with Villanova.

    I picked UCLA beginning of year, and they were only one that really did good. I picked Duke, Texas, Zona, and UCLA beginning of year, I had 2 team close.

    I filled out about 5 brackets and used the same exact thing on every single one of them. [​IMG]

    I don't get the point in filling out a few brackets and using different picks on each of them...

    ^ Yea, me too. I only picked for the Yahoo! competition, mostly because I don't consider myself an expert on college ball. If I had known my bracket would do this well, I would have tried to make some money off it.

    I did it on 2 different services, facebook and Yahoo. I had the same exact bracket, except for Yahoo, I accidentally put Iowa over LSU in the Final 4.

    I don't get the point in filling out a few brackets and using different picks on each of them...</div>One year I had all different brackets and then I never knew who I wanted to win.

    So now even though I fill out more than one, I make them 95% identical with just a few alternate scenarios thrown in.

    I heard on the radio that only 4 people in the entire world correctly predicted the final four on espn.com.
