Midnight Madness NCAA Bracket Projection

October 10, 2009 bracketguy 1 comment

How time flies. Midnight Madness opens October 16.  With that, we begin our second online season at Bracketville.  And since March Madness is only six months away, why not offer our first pre-season bracket projection?  As we move through late October and early November, I may update this effort with a true pre-season bracket.  I’ll also be moving this post to the Bracketology section soon.    For now, you can find my Final Bracket Projection for the 2009 tournament at that location.  Have thoughts?  Please send me a rebound.

   We’re only about three weeks away from Midnight Madness.  That’s the time we start gaining momentum toward the tip-off of the 2009-10 NCAA men’s basketball season and NCAA Tournament.   In preparation, we’ve launched a new page called Team Capsules that will allow me to list key wins and key losses as the season progresses.  …   It won’t be long until we post our first pre-season bracket projection.  Hard to believe the off season is almost over.  Please send along your thoughts and rebounds.  I look forward to another fun basketball season.  If you have ideas, let me know – Dave

Spokane/Oklahoma City switch dates for 2010 tourney

August 22, 2009 bracketguy Leave a comment

     The NCAA announced it has switched dates for the Spokane and Oklahoma City first/second-round sites for the 2010 NCAA Tournament.  Spokane will become a Friday-Sunday site with games on March 19 and 21.  Oklahoma City will thus move to a Thursday-Saturday site with games on March 18 and 20.  Changes are reflected under Tourney Sites.

    There’s not much to this change; mostly logistics.  Since Spokane is now a Friday-Sunday site, it would mean that location would be unavailable to BYU if the Cougars were to make the NCAAs again.  Spokane would be their closest location, but BYU will not play on Sundays.  If any further news develops between now and Midnight Madness, we’ll keep you updated.

2009-10 Power 24

  1. Kansas - Jayhawks stay in place as our preseason favorite.
  2. Michigan State – Spartans are a small step behind.
  3. Texas - With Damion James back, the Longhorns will push KU and the nation.
  4. North Carolina – There’s still a lot of talent in Chapel Hill.
  5. Villanova - A small drop, but the Wildcats will probably be the Big East favorites. Read more…
