Enough on oil prices and the Fed. I know what you’ve all really been waiting for is the 2012 Econbrowser NCAA tournament challenge, where you can test your skills (and luck) at predicting the outcomes of the U.S. college men’s basketball tournament. All you have to do is go to the Econbrowser group at ESPN, do some minor registering to create a free ESPN account if you haven’t used that site before, and make your picks for the winners of each game. Just make sure you complete your entry before Thursday, because the Econbrowser group only allows predictions before the tournament begins. And be forewarned that some of the people who enter this group really know what they’re doing!
Whole lotta Big Ten!!!
Lotta Big Ten here as well, to a point anyway. Between this and the 70-degree weather the rest of this week in Dairyland. BRING IT! Hey Menzie – you got any side bets planned for that possible second-round matchup with Harvard? You got connections out there, right?
By the way, is that former Daily Show correspondent Mo Rocca in our group?
Big Ten? How about the Big 12!!! Whoo-hoo – go ‘Hawks!! Can’t wait to knock out Purdue.
Mike The Big Ten is where Big 12 teams go when they get full size (e.g., Nebraska). Unfortunately, neither conference is much on arithmetic skills, with the Big Ten having twelve teams and the Big 12 having ten teams.
I know y’all have an econometric model carefully calibrated to historical data!! bring it!!

Perhaps, but the corollary is that the Pac 12 is where non-KU Big12 teams go if they want a chance to win a conference championship in basketball(e.g., Colorado). That’s just embarrassing.
