PERFORMANCE

YOU ARE LOOKING LIVE!
at the humble web site for the
Basketball Bracket Challenge
as we await the tipoff to the
2026 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament.
Come back to this site during the tournament for stats, standings
and the sort of tournament analysis you simply will not find anywhere else.

PRIZE MONEY
2026 Prize Money results are listed below. The number of prize paying positions and the amounts will vary based on number of entries.
Basic rule of thumb I follow is about 10% of the pool ends up in the prize money and the champion earns about half.
We have 84 entires this year. That is a total prize fund of $420.00. The prize breakdown is listed below.

SITE VIEWING RULES
|
The following rules apply to emails too!
1. I write. I don't proof read. I don't edit (unless the errors are eggregious, then I'll consider editing)
You will find misspellings, typos, grammatical errors and missing words in almost every article.
If you simply treat this as part of the folksy charm of my site, it will be a more pleasurable experience for both of us.
2. Use the Google Machine To Decipher Cryptic References
I'm a big fan of off the wall references. If you suspect your missing the joke, see if you can find it on google.
3. I Mean You No Harm
I promise any jokes made are in fun, with no intent to offend or hurt feelings. But you know how color blind people can't tell the
difference between greens and reds... well I can't always see the line between appropriate and inappropriate, and before I know it I'm on the wrong side.

LEADERS BY CHAMPION
|
The list below shows the sheet with the most points for each national champion pick. In theory, as long as you stay withing 25 points of the leader (the value of the championship game),
you are still in contention to win. Oh! and your team is still in the tournament.
