jimdahl Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 I think I have the bracket working pretty well. Ever since accidentally putting up one where the regional champs advanced to meet the incorrect foes a while back, I always post it here for a while before adding it to the front page. 2012 NCAA hockey bracket challenge You can save/load picks with your forum account. Let me know of any problems you see. My guess is that we're going to see more UND wins it all picks than usual this year, but it will be interesting to see.

Snake Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Don't they configure the bracket so the region containing the #1 overall seed plays the region containing #4 overall seed? That would be true "bracket integrity." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andtheHomeoftheSIOUX!! Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Are we going to be able to see the percentages of who picked what this year like in years past? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiSioux Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 As much as I want to pick based on who I think will win, I find myself picking based on emotion and who I like. Some how ever time I pick, UND wins it all. Hopefully this will be the year I am right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxczech29 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 UND has a chance to beat pretty much all of their top NCAA rivals on their way to #8. UMtc BC Mich Looking forward to the same support at the X as there was this past weekend. Come on Sioux fans! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEagle Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Boston College Miami Denver Western Michigan I have a strange feeling that UND and Minnesota might be looking ahead in the first round, and then BU will have a letdown in the regional finals.

Some how ever time I pick, UND wins it all. Hopefully this will be the year I am right! I gave up trying to not pick based on emotions awhile ago. I do try to pick not by what I really hope might happen...but sometimes..you gotta do what you gotta do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big A HG Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Yeah, that always takes me an extra day... Distribution of picks More picks for BC to get out of the first round than UND. That must mean that there is no possible chance BC could lose. I guarantee they move on to the regional finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sagard Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Michigan will only have to beat one of UM, UND, UMD, BC, BU, or Maine. That is a good draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YaneA Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 You've got it right. UND would play BC, and Union would play Michigan (assuming the 1s all advanced). Thanks, JIm. Feeling less dumb by the minute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkster Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Considering how I did in the Dance brackets this year, it's probably the kiss of death for any team I pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimdahl Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 How is the scoring done for the bracket? Each round is worth the same amount, so 1 - 2 - 4 - 8 points per round. So, you've pretty much gotta get the champ right to win under that system, so I also post a leaderboard by straight correct picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
