Just for clarity, once again, the play-in games artificially referred to by the NCAA as the first round are not a part of the UMTailgate.com tournament challenge. Your brackets are due Thursday before the first game.

GO BLUE!
Surprised doesn't quite describe it. And ya, that's me saying "fu*king 8 seed." An 8-9 matchup on Friday at 12:40pm in North Carolina against the Jim Tressel of college basketball. This is going to be fun.
A great end to a great week for Michigan at Crisler Arena.
In the wake of the tsunami and Earthquakes, I have received several inquiries about Mitch, affectionately known as "Mascot" at the tailgates, who returned to Japan last year after a long term assignment in the U.S. that included attending every home Michigan Football game for 3 years.
I received an email from him this morning, and I am happy to report that Mitch and his family are all fine. We look forward to seeing him back at The Cove next season.
Couple of quick notes about this year's tournament challenge...
1) Yes, of course we are doign it again this year!
2) We will again be using pickhoops.com to manage the scoring
3) We will be ignoring the "play in" games
4) If you don't get an email invite and you think you deserve one, email me at frank@umtailgate.com
Heading to the selection special party at Crisler tomorrow...pics and other nonsense to come.
