Wow Mike. You're currently ranked in the 4th percentile, as in 96 out of 100 have done better than you. What's your method? Want to make sure I don't use it!

Down to 5% Mike,and you, like me, have your bracket busted with Villanova's loss.

My niece did her picks one year based on which mascots she liked better. Did you use a similar system?

If anybody is wondering or cares...

I did recover from my 5% level by virtue of having the Tarheels in the championship game. Unfortunately, I had them losing to Villanova :no: . No one had the Heels in the group - most were on 'Nova or Gonzaga to win it all. Here are the rankings with percentile against all ESPN brackets (over 13 million).

T1. 78.2% Corey (GunnerJr)
T1. 78.2% Cody (Neal Anderth)
3. 77.5% Will K. (William K)
4. 68.8% Ryan (Tezcatlipoca)
T5. 67.7% George J. (geojanes)
T5. 67.7% Brad S. (bradsour)
7. 65.2% Mike (SLOTerp)
T8. 31.0%William K. (WillyCII)
T8. 31.0% Brad B. (bbauska)
T8. 31.0% Jared P. (n/a)
11. 0.0% Tim C.(jadthegrey)
