Ok kids, here is your chance to play a little bit of bracket-ology here at PF.

Pick your Sweet 16, Elite 8, Final Four and National Championship game teams.

We'll decide the winner by giving

1 point for EACH correct Sweet 16 berth
2 points for EACH correct Elite 8 berth
3 points for EACH correct Final Four berth
and 5 points for the EACH of two teams in the National Championship game.

Rules

You must be a registered PF.com member to play. Do not register multiple accounts to submit more than one entry. You will be found out.

You must select teams that make sense based on the brackets. Yep, you'll have to read the brackets and pick winners each step of the way. If you disregard the brackets you will totally screw yourself out of a chance to win. The brackets are BIBLE.

You will be given ONE opportunity to revise your predictions after the post editing limit has passed. You must Private Message your revisions to roscoe36 before the deadline. The forum date & time on your PM will be considered the postmark. Do not email.

Deadline

Your predictions must be in by 11:00 AM Eastern on Saturday March 18th. That will mean the first round is complete and there will be 64 teams left. All prediction posts after this time will be considered null and void.

Prize

The winner will receive a PF.com T-shirt by mail. This prize has a cash value of $0 (means you can't ask for cash instead). Winners must be willing to provide a name and shipping address (privately) to receive their reward. In the event of a tie on points, we will award multiple prizes.

How to Play

Select your Sweet 16 teams based on the brackets (that will be in the 4th round).

Then pick the 8 teams that advance to the next round, the four teams that advance to the round after that, and the final 2 teams that advance to the championship game.

You can view the brackets HERE, and you can view a printable version with schedule HERE.

Questions can be posted to this thread, however question posts will be removed and the answers added to the first post in the thread for the benefit of everyone (and to keep things neat and tidy).
