Let the Madness Begin
March 15, 2009 1 Comment
In approximately 29 minutes, the bracket will be announced for the 2009 NCAA Tournament. The bracket announcement is just the beginning of what is sure to be an amazing month of college basketball. In our minds, March Madness is the greatest sporting event of the year. We expect after all is said and done this year that our view will remain that same. Before the bracket is announced, though, Barney will give his predictions of what 64 teams will make it to the Big Dance, and which seeds each of these teams will occupy. Of course, this is just the beginning to what will be extensive coverage of this year's tournament, so we hope you will come along with us for what is sure to be a wild ride.
