2011 PSB: Elite Eight Round

We have quite an interesting tournament here, don’t we? As we begin the elite eight round of the third annual best Pittsburgh sports blog tournament, only two #1 seeds remain while three #2 seeds have been eliminated. We also have two #6 seeds and a #8 seed still alive. You just can’t get this type of detailed analysis of this tournament anywhere else!

Voting for the elite eight round begins now and will run until 10:00 PM Eastern time tomorrow (2/24). You may notice that I’m using different polling software, so I added a few extra hours to this round just in case there are some user errors in setting this up. (Please leave a comment if you have any issues voting.)

I think that’s it. Here’s your updated bracket:



Johnny Ray Division



#1 Mondesi’s House vs. #3 Pirates Prospects




John Cullen Division



#4 Raise the Jolly Roger vs. #6 Faceoff Factor




CARLTON HASELRIG DIVISION



#2 PensBurgh vs. #8 Pitt Script




JEROME LANE DIVISION



#1 Steelers Depot vs. #6 Rum Bunter



Once again, thanks to Cotter for designing the fantastic logo.

UPDATE: Voting for the elite eight round is now complete. The final four voting will begin on Monday, 2/28 at 9:00 AM and run until Tuesday evening. The championship will take place from Wednesday 3/2 through Friday 3/4.
