    Alright guys, here is the 2017 Final Pour Locals Edition! Just a refresher on the rules:

    Everyone will be randomly assigned one team (#15 and #16 seeds will not be assigned) from each region in the bracket and you will get points based on the round they win multiplied by their seed number. The rounds are scored as follows:

    Round 1 - 2 points
    Round 2 - 4 points
    Round 3 - 8 points (Sweet 16)
    Round 4 - 16 points (Elite 8)
    Round 5 - 32 points (Final Four)
    Round 6 - 64 points (Championship)

    So a #10 seed that wins their 1st round game would get 20 points while a #1 seed will only get you 2 points. So it is pretty advantageous to have a lower seed that wins a couple of games. The play-in games are not scored.

    The top two finishers will receive boxes and will not have to ship. Each box will be at least 64 oz of good local beer. First place will get 8 boxes and second place will get 4 boxes.

    Here are this year's participants (including myself):

    I'm looking to have it done on Monday so you can follow bracketology throughout the conference tournaments.

    @johnyb if you'd like I'd split my entry with you. If we win (we won't) we split the boxes.

    When we lose (we will) we each send a box.
