That will make my job SO much easier than looking at the daily conference scores pages on ESPN!Here's a good link for following each conference tournament:

Some of the links in there are definitely better than others, but it seemed pretty comprehensive. I like how they list the dates for each round. It's easier to chronicle my demise.

Here is who is still alive going into Thursday, March 6th
I will try and update this on a daily basis. This is just the first group. Working on getting 2nd group made. If you see a mistake, let me know!

This is great! If you do this, then all I have to keep updating is the leaderboard with wins, losses & remaining teams.
That's cool! Thanks for tracking that.
If you & KC keep going like this, I won't have to do ANYTHING.
Yeah, but if we screw up, we'll blame YOU!That's cool! Thanks for tracking that.

Group 2 submission deadline in 24 hours.
I don't think it applies to many contestants, most have posted both groups already.
It DOES apply to me, so I s'pose I'd better get busy livin', or get busy dyin'!

Fun thing I hadn't realized: Big Sky tournament, held in Boise, is nicknamed "Starch Madness."
Leader Board after the completion of the games on 6 March.
FGCU lost on day one (dammit), and Army and Milwaukee lost today. Cyinthenorth has a second loss by default as he forfeited the pick for the ASun league.

4 hours until Group 2 deadline. I think I'm the lone straggler, but just in case, sending an alert.
My group 2 choices are ready, @ImJustKCClone. I updated my initial post (#40). Let me know if you prefer I post separately.
