McNeese and Drake busting brackets 💥
Welcome to Day 2️⃣ of the NCAA Tournament! We are only one day in and there is a good chance that your bracket is already busted (or at least mine is 😒). If Day 1 was any indication though, we are in for an electric weekend, including an epic matchup of legendary coaches with Calipari (Arkansas) taking on Pitino (St. John’s)!
Just in case we didn’t have enough madness in our lives already, the Women’s Tournament also starts today, so you should have more than enough chaos to take in on this Friday. FWIW, you won’t be the only one sneaking in some Tournament action during the workday today 😉
Here’s to hoping your bets - and brackets - leave you feeling better than the ACC after Day 1 of the Tournament! And remember friends…
Don’t Gamble. Bet Bettr!
