NCAA 2026 Sweet 16 Pool

Hi everyone - in the interest of not wanting to wait until the last minute to get situated and have everything randomized, I am going to have a stop date/time of 5pm Sunday, March 22nd to fill the 2nd pools.

If they don't fill by then, I will refund anyone who is in them and has already sent escrow.

Hi everyone - sweet 16 pools are closed with 1 of each pool. Sadly, the 2nd $20 and $50 did not gain interest.

PM me if I owe you money. Think I already sent the $20 and the$50

All escrow is received for sweet 16 pools, thanks!

Name lists have been randomized and sent to a holder for verification.

Once all sweet 16 teams are determined, I'll ask for 2 sets of teams to be randomized 3 times each (1 set from each side of the bracket, 3 times for 3 pools).

The first set will correlate to the $20 pool, the 2nd set to the $50 pool, and the 3rd set to the $100 pool.

Please wait for me to post the lists in here then randomize them at that point.

Good luck everyone!

Sweet 16 is set! Below are the 2 lists that need randomized. I will need someone to go to random.org and use the list randomizer. I will need 3 separate randomized lists for each set. The first of each set will be used for the $20 pool, the 2nd of each for the $50 pool, and the last of each for the $100 pool.

The only person who cannot do this is the names list holder. Anyone else can randomize a list or all of them.

Thank you!

Set 1 (left side of the brackets):

Duke
St John’s
Michigan State
Nebraska
Illinois
Houston
Iowa
UCONN

Set 2 (Right side of the brackets):

Arkansas
Texas
Purdue
Michigan
Iowa State
Tennessee
Arizona
Alabama

Fingers crossed for some good teams! Freerolling in the regular squares so if its not too much to ask I'd like to hit at least one side of the $100 here

We'll see what happens once the teams get randomized so that I can put the lists together. Lol

Thanks! I will need each set randomized 2 more times - for the other 2 pools. Anyone can do this aside from the names list holder.

First glance it appears I'm gonna need some major upsets

Guess UConn gives me a chance. I expect Purdon't to fold up soon.

GL everyone!

Thank you sweet baby Jesus. Feel like I have already won.

I was watching to see if you got Arizona....lol

Earl made sure that he's an accomplished scooper!
