So, we’ve had some fun with our Wacky Brackets … but now that it’s tournament day (the most wonderful day of the year, in our opinion), it’s time to get serious. Here are our real Final Four and national championship picks for your perusal. Enjoy the hoops. (And visit back here often this weekend!)

Wacky Brackets: Best and Worst
On to the next three wacky methods of picking a bracket. This time, the Dorm Room Hoops staff rated the schools in the tournament based on things they’re either really, really good at … or really, really bad at. Methodology this time? Best football team, worst graduation rate, and best basketball player in team history. (That last method led to a whole lot of debate in the newsroom.)
Wacky Brackets: Let’s Play Games

Sitting around and picking brackets can be kind of boring … so if you can add some activity to the process, that can make it a bit more enjoyable. So, we picked three brackets that involved some sort of activity. One bracket was picked by an epic game of rock, paper, scissors. Another bracket was picked by coin flip – and came out remarkably decent. And the last bracket was picked by a game of trash can basketball … which seemed to never end. Next time, we’re picking better shooters.
