ZipsNation Bracket Challenge - CBSSports

[Let'sGoZips94]

I've created a ZipsNation.org bracket pool. 

 

Click here to enter.

 

Free & Fun. 

 

FYI - scoring is exponential points (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32) + seed. i.e. If you take Akron and they beat UCLA, that's 1 pt for the 1st round correct pick, and 13 pts for Akron's seed for a total of 14 pts for getting that correct. 

 

Good luck & Go Zips!

 

z.i.P.S. If you don't take Akron in Round 1, you're a Flushes fan.

We have the best board in the MAC (probably one of the best in the country). Happy to do this for ZipsNation.

[blueandgold]

All set up, bracket filled out and ready to go!

[Let'sGoZips94]

Little over an hour left. If you haven't joined/completed your bracket, do so ASAP. 

 

Go Zips!

@Let'sGoZips94 Will you be posting any sort of standing on here as we go along?

I would have loved to have played Michigan and knock that punk Juwan Howard out.

I can most certainly do this if it's unanimous that people are ok with their real name being posted in here. Or I can use some sort of initials, etc. 

 

Let's see what the group says. If it's a yes by everyone, would y'all prefer round by round standings or daily standings?

[Blue & Gold]

You can use my name. I have nothing to hide. Lol.  Except my shame after my bracket is busted after Round 1. Lol

[MDZip]

Crap. My bracket ended up in the CBS tournament pool and not in the zips tournament pool. I guess I'll keep track of it there against everyone else. 

[johnnyzip84]

Real names are OK by me.

[mes102]

I'm okay with the real names.

I'm good with names as long as the feds aren't notified

I will post the standings tomorrow following Round 1.

 

Those of you who took UCLA, I wish I could award you no points.

94 - Disqualification for anyone who took Calipari to win it all (... and probation for any of us who may have taken UCLA).
