The second round of Ogle Madness tips-off today with second round games from the Northeast Region.
We'll begin with a couple of notes:
• Here's the updated bracket. Just about everyone who competed in our Bracket Challenge still has a chance. That is, everyone except the 10-year-old boy who picked Street Outlaws. I guess that's fine, because I would hate to see the dinner for eight to LOCAL wasted on grilled cheese sandwiches and Capri Sun.
