NCAA 360 Double Elimination Tourney
Now that I finally have a 360..I guess I oughta make use of it.
I figured I’d try to organize something a bit different that wouldn’t eat up as much time as a full blown league. Plus, leagues are tough to finish and touneys seem to have a higher connect rate as far as actually getting it done.We actually completed the 64 team NCAA CH2K6 tourney last year.
I don’t think the game supports what I want to do, so it will mosty likely be done by hand with the info posted online.
I’m setting up a 32 team double elimination NCAA 07 360 tourney. The catch is that the teams involved must be rated no HIGHER than a “B” OVR. I want to make it mildly fair so there isn’t an Ohio State playing Duke. I just think it’ll be more interesting with B lvl teams rather than the usual A-Rated suspects.
I believe the B rated teams are: (these are Xbox ratings and I assume it’s the same on the 360. My 360 is waiting on my new monitor..)
Please note that some teams are already spoken for. I have designated these teams with the *.
Arizona
*Boston College
*Colorado State
Duke (is Duke really a B?)
Fresno St
*Hawaii
*Iowa State
*Kansas State
*Maryland
*Minnesota
*Mizzou
*Miss St
*Navy
*Nevada
New Mexico
*North Carolina
Ohio
*Okie St
*Ole Miss
*Pitt
*San Diego State
Southern Miss
Stanford
*TCU
*UCLA
UNLV
UTEP
*Virginia
Wake Forest
*Washington
*Western Mich
*Wisconsin
Of course if you want a B- (or worse) team feel free to take them. Brackets will be drawn up randomly after all 32 slots are filled.
If you want to play, pick and team and secure a spot. Post a comment or send us an email.

Who took my Aztecs???
I’m in with Nevada. They shredded my first dynasty season and kept my edited team of supermen from unlocking the “#1 Offense” achievement.
I guess I better play a few games with them…

pb, is Penn State a ‘B’ team on the 360? (I dont know, I dont have it in front of me. If so, then that’s cool.)

My NCAA keeps crashing. Microsoft says 10-14 days until I get my 360 back from being repaired. So if I can start as late as August 13th or so, I’d like to play with North Carolina since I guess my Clemson Tigers must be ranked a B+?

I can check tonight and verify Penn State and Clemson’s ratings, but the existing list in this post isn’t entirely accurate. My Mizzou Tigers weren’t there originally. I guess the rosters and ratings differ from Xbox to 360.

I’ll post an updated list when I get my monitor or someone else could throw me a bone.
August 1st, 2006 at 8:22 am
i think psu is higher than a B…if so i’ll take Navy…my bad…pb

What’s the schedule/timetable? Any other rules for the league?

Anyone wanna play a practice game later tonight? I need some practice with Hawaii as I’ve never played with or against them. Gamertag is Yankeefan4444.
