My Bracket Was Gone

With apologies to the Pretenders

I looked in at Yahoo
But my bracket was gone
There was no Wisconsin
There was no MSU
Indiana had disappeared
All my favorite picks
My bracket had been pulled down
Reduced to empty pages
Cough, choke, way to go Iowa

Well I went back to Yahoo
But my bracket was gone
I read all the game scores
I had few teams left
I was stunned and amazed
My careful picks
Slowly swirled past
Like water in the toilet
Cough, choke, way to go Illini

I went back to Yahoo
But my pretty bracket
Had been torn down the middle
By college teams that had no pride
The teams of the Big Ten
Had been replaced by other squads
And sadness filled the air
From gyms to dorm halls
Cough, choke, state university of Ohio
