Welcome to the Marathon "Nothin But Net" Men's College Basketball Tournament Contest on WANE.COM!
How does it work?
Just pick the winner for each game up to 20 minutes before it is scheduled to start. If you don't pick in time the computer will select the most picked team for you. So, instead of predicting the entire tournament before it happens you get to pick the winner of each game as it goes along. Also check out our printable bracket for a special offer from our title sponsor Marathon.
Are there prizes?
Yes! You could win $1,000,000 if you pick all of the games correctly. You could win $10,000 if you only miss one or two games. Locally you have the chance to win a $500 Marathon gift card if you are the overal local winner.
And, you could win $1,000 if you only miss three games. For more details (including how ties are broken) see our rules page.
Additionally, the national grand prize for the player with the highest score is a iPod Touch sponsored by Upickem and a Sapphire Series
College Watch sponsored by Game Time Shop.
See all prizes.
