First Four Picks

If you missed our bracket reaction and region breakdowns, view the last couple of blogs. In this blog, we're giving you our picks for the Play-In games. These picks will not actually count for our official tourney picks, but they will be added to our score in our "secondary picks" contest. The details are below:

On Wednesday, March 20, Greg and I will be posting our Official Tournament Picks. We will be picking the winner of every game from the "Round of 64" to the "Championship Game." To borrow a term from Mike and Mike, we will reveal our "Sheets of Integrity". This will serve as our primary March Madness contest. The first (second) round games will each be worth 1, then 2 for the next round, then 3, 4, 5, and 6 for the championship.

We will also have our "Secondary Picks" contest. These picks will consist of the First Four games (revealed below) and our re-do picks (explained here). After the first and second weekends of the tourney, we'll make picks for the upcoming weekend based off the the previous results. So if we were wrong the previous weekend, we can re-do our pick for what is still to come. These re-do picks though will only be worth 1 point. Same goes for the First Four picks below.

So without further ado, here are our picks for the First Four games.
