Due to the massive amounts of free time afforded to BubbRubb by the employers of America, I have gone ahead and created a printable bracket with a HoyaTalk theme. I wanted to upload a .pdf or at least link to it, but I don't know how to do that (the Oakland school system was too busy teaching ebonics when I was growing up to give me any useful computer knowledge), so thanks to nodak for getting this done. The link is in his post below...enjoy!

I like it. Good effort.
One question and one comment:
Why is George Washington changed to "WG?" Is there more to that story or is it simply a literary correction since, at least in some eyes, names in any list are always properly considered alphabetically, starting with the last name first?
If this isn't it, then not only did curiosity kill the cat, but it led me into the firing line for insults if it is something I should already know.
Comment: since it wouldn't really offend anyone, and since it is also indisputable, why not correct the Buckeyes to a more appropriate name: "Gators whipping boys!"

And thanks for the reasonable post. As I understand it, a few members of the 2nd Colonial Army (the first having successfully driven off the British a few hundred years ago) had the audacity to show their faces at the Duke game last year. Problem was, one of said GW fans had improperly applied his (her?) face paint, writing "WG" instead of "GW" on his face (An unconfirmed report also had this same fan stumbling about after the game asking people if they had found his baseball. As I say, this is unconfirmed.). There are so many reasons why this is hilarious and telling, but the lasting outcome is that George Washington University will forever be known to those (of unquestionably superior intellect) on the Hilltop as WG. As for The OSU, I could care less if the Gators beat them. Your lucky that you came along (as the only HT poster to get a shout-out on the bracket! Well done.), otherwise I would have called FU "Florida State's Beotch." Zing!

They were there, pulling for SJU, hoping to be able to mock Gtown. The problem, of course, was that the Hoyas destroyed SJU out of the gates and so instead, they got a lot of mocking. sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2006/writers/luke_winn/02/15/dc.part2/1.html
