A record-shattering 264 contestants entered the 12th annual Living Room Times men’s basketball pool.

That number may fall slightly due to possible disqualifications, but it easily beats last year’s record of 218 contestants.

The first set of standings will be available after the conclusion of the opening trio of games, in which #4 Maryland vs. #13 Davidson and #7 Boston College vs. #10 Texas Tech are both close at halftime, while #6 Louisville is crushing #11 Stanford.

UPDATE: You can view everyone’s brackets here.

The most popular picks to win the championship are Florida (46 out of 264), Ohio State (45), Georgetown (37), Kansas (33), North Carolina (25), UCLA (17), Wisconsin (14) and Texas A&M (10).

UPDATE 2: Boston College is the first winner of the NCAA Tournament round of 64, beating Texas Tech 84-75. And it’s a matter of time until Louisville’s win over Stanford becomes official. The one game still in doubt is Maryland-Davidson. Go Wildcats!

UPDATE 3: Maryland wins. D’oh!

I’ve updated the pool standings on the assumption Louisville wins. They’re up 77-50 with 4:16 left. As B. Minich said, the University of Alcoholic Trees appears to be hungover.

86 people are tied for the lead through three games. Complete standings after the jump.
