For the second third year in a row, Split Zone Duo presents a revolutionary idea:

A college basketball bracket competition from a college football podcast? Yeah it’s weird, but no weirder than Georgia Nebraska making the tournament.

We’ll use ESPN’s “Tournament Challenge” platform. Be mindful that your fellow competitors will be able to see your picks and ESPN display name, and you’ll need to have an account on the ESPN site. Everyone is limited to one entry for the men’s and women’s tournaments. If you already have a bracket on ESPN’s platform, it’s extremely easy to enter it in our group.

Information after the paywall jump here, because the bracket contest is limited to paid subscribers. Stick with us!
