So it begins!
Before we start today's match-ups, we should let everyone know that the Ghost of Ed Gaylord beat the Ghost of Oral Roberts by a vote of 237 - 176 in the Ogle Madness play-in game. I'm not sure what that means, but either way, it's scary.
Also, here are some more things to review before we officially tip- off Ogle Madness;
"¢ Here is the 65 man/women/thing tournament bracket. This one may be easier to view and print than the previous one we posted. Also, we eliminated some typos. To stay true to form, we added some, too.
"¢ Some people have asked us what the voting criteria is for Ogle Madness. Basically, there isn't any. I guess it's just vote for whoever you want to advance or for who you like more. That is, of course, unless you are voting for Patrick. Patrick is handsome. He's also possibly writing this.
"¢ In Ogle Madness, polls are open for only one day. That means you need to drop by each day to cast your vote for each round or region.
"¢ Please don't be a tool and try to rig the ballot box.
"¢ If you want a good recap of last year's bracket, check out the "One Shining Moment" video above.
