The 2019 NCAA bracket has been released, and about the only good thing I can say about it is that means it’s time for our annual bracket challenge! This will be our 6th year doing a bracket for the team tournament, and yes we will be doing an individuals bracket as well. Follow the steps below to create your FREE bracket. If you have any issues, feel free to reach out to me or any of your friendly neighborhood bloggers. At the very least, the winner will get a Blog interview. At the most, can you say guest on next year’s selection show?! Without any further ado, click the link below and follow the instructions to get started on your 2019 bracket challenge!
1) Click on the link above.
2) Click on the link for “2019 NCAA Tournament” (after which you should see the draw).
3) Click the “Predict It” link, in the top left corner of the draw.
4) You do have to register with the site, but it’s completely free and in 5 years I have not gotten one email from them.
4a) Enter your name and REAL email. This is important. The name doesn’t have to be real, but the email does because you will get a confirmation link.
4b) Get your new password emailed to you (this is instantaneous).
4c) Enter your new password with your email into the site (after which you should be taken back to the draw).
5) Pick your 1st round matches! You pick a winner by clicking the bubble next to a team’s name. You do not need to do anything with the teams that have byes, as the bracket automatically advances them. You can enter scores into the text box that appears in each match section. These are not necessary, but a fun way to distinguish yourself from the competition.
6) After picking all 10 1st round matches, click enter at the bottom of the page (after which you should be taken to all 2nd round matchups). PLEASE NOTE ALL MATCHES WILL BE LOCKED IN AFTER PRESSING ENTER. IF YOU WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PREDICTIONS, YOU WILL HAVE TO DELETE YOUR BRACKET AND START OVER (at the bottom left of the page).
7) Pick all 16 2nd round matches.
8) Press enter at the bottom of the page to be presented with 3rd round matchups.
9) Continue picking and hitting enter at the end of each round until you have picked a winner!!!
10) Remember, the deadline is Thursday morning at the start of the first match! If you have any questions, feel free to comment, email (D3Northeast@gmailcom) or tweet at any of your friendly neighborhood bloggers. Have fun, and good luck!
9 a.m. EST as that’s when the first match starts!
My bracket is unstoppable. I totally know what I’m doing.
Only Mens? Or women’s too?
The Women’s team is working on it. Thanks!
