The countdown has begun! It's time to pin that bracket to a dart board and let'em fly. With Arkansas-Pine Bluff crushing the hopes of the Winthrop faithful, the opening game is officially in the books. This qualifying game gives the The Golden Lions the dubious honor of playing the number 1 ranked Duke Blue Devils on Friday evening to kick-off the 64 team Tournament.

The 2010 March Madness Bracket Buster Contest is ready to roll. Prizes will be awarded for the top 3 finishers. The prizes include:

1st Place: $100

2nd Place: $60

3rd Place: $40

All picks need to be made prior to the tip-off of the first game (Thursday, March 18th at 12:20 pm EST).

The format is simple. Pick the winners of each game. Point totals are awarded for correct picks and esculate in value per round (1,2,4,6,8, and 16). The tiebreaker will be the total combined points of the championship game.

Best of Luck!
