The Alabama County Corona Virus Bracket Challenge
I’m pretty sure Madison county is about to be fucked
The odds are not in our favor
Lee has it
Really liking Randolph
Randolph has it lol
Source: my mom is a nurse in the hospital there
Ive heard this about a lot of counties. No reason for them to keep it secret
Agreed.
Randolph hospital is now going to be doing screenings on every single person to walk into the building from here on out. (For the foreseeable future) so we’ll probably be seeing many more cases everywhere soon
Not on the ADPH yet?
Test just came back yesterday. Idk how long it takes to get put in tho🤷🏻♂️
Update: I will post a new bracket next week if people really want to keep up with this.
New results as of 3/17 10:40am:
Madison County goes down. Thus Mobile has defeated Madison and Jefferson County and wins the play in and will face Greene County
Sumter (2) defeats Lee (15)
Hale (4) defeats St. Clair (13)
Yes, please.
Please keep this going!!!
Let’s go, Lauderdale!!!
Yup! I'm holding out for a lack of testing upset win. We got this easy like.
With all the people that work in Madison, the only thing going to help us is the lack of testing.
This is extraordinary. Please keep us updated
You got this Marion County!
Just realized Jefferson should have been seed 4a and Montgomery 1a
Calhoun County. High traffic section of I20, Oxford Exchange at one exit, Walmart Supercenter at other exit, next nearest Walmart going east is in Bremen, GA. Huge influx of obvious out-of-towners last week cleaning out Walmart, Target, Publix, etc. Georgians afraid to go east towards infected Atlanta, so came west for their hoarding emergency supplies.
Half of the retail and restaurant employees at those two exits are probably infected.
Friend of mine is sick, some of the symptoms but no fever. Called doctor, they said "maybe" but no tests available. Stay at home, ride it out, call if it gets worse. :(
Well my parents live probably 2 miles from the Exchange and they arent infected!..
Trying to figure out if this is a joke or not . . .
Yeah me too... Calhoun Co. is no more effected than any other county in Alabama.
Yo this is bullshit. How are you gonna match Tuscaloosa to a tiny county? Unfair :/
Well, Tuscaloosa's population did drop by about 30,000 last week lol
I bet traffic there is so good now.
The point is to seed the bigger counties all low since they are gonna go out first. At least Tuscaloosa isn’t playing in the play in game
Oh. That explains why Crenshaw is a 3 seed. Was very confused for a minute there
Madison should be the last seed since Redstone arsenal has SO much travel work.
Let’s go Tallapoosa!
Maybe I’m just blind, but where’s Coffee County?
Edit: Nevermind, I’m totally blind. Found it
Helaha!😉
Lawrence is my Cinderella upset special pick.
Amen amen. Honestly, wouldn’t be the worse thing to happen. Tornado in ‘12 and Champion shutting down is rough... and my parents wonder why I don’t consider moving back. Bless them.
One little quibble. How does Lowndes Co. take down "The Redneck Riviera" of Baldwin Co? I bet they aren't even testing down there in Trump Country!
Baldwin had the extra money lying around, so they walked off their county. /s

Must have been a Mobile commuter. Oh, well. Maybe next pandemic!

Makes perfect sense. If you get sick and want to be tested, you go to where they are testing.
How exactly does this work?
When a county has a detection they are eliminated
So, go for the poorest and most fundamentalist? Because it's already here, we're just not testing

Yup places like this one

Looks like the playin's decided.
I can’t find Sumter county. Did I miss it?
No I made a mistake. The upper left section is where Sumter should be. They would be the #2 seed there. If you notice Greene County is listed twice and that is where Sumter should be. Ill fix it when I update it
Anyone have a link to the one in baldwin?
Google is your friend
Go Blount county
Lee at 15 seed? What about the Auburn SEC caliber defense? Sleeper pick for sure
I heard it was in mobile for sure
Ive been hearing this for over a week. There is no reason for them to keep it quiet
Cherokee...we are bringing in the GA population to the lake.
Sees Shelby County as 16th seed
Not pulling a UMBC this year boys...
Why leave out Shelby
Let’s go Covington!
[removed]
Yeah but in PDF. Here it is if you want it
[removed]
You know those Camdenese got it
Greene's in there twice.
I know. 2 seed there should be Shelby. Will correct next week
I nailed it! Calhoun County confirmed first positive today.
Did I win anything? Like, maybe, a free case of corona . . . virus?
It sometimes gets lonely here up at the top.
Jefferson for the win!
You’re already out bro. Just a matter of if you lose to Mobile or Madison
Do you win by being the last without it?
Yup
It's ok, I'll play golf rules with you. Lee County checking in.
So DeKalb is a 12 because we are a relatively big county?
Correct. The larger the county the higher the seed
Took 9 days but we are the last high seed off the board.
Yeah I am thinking of updating sooner if I get the time.
Tallapossa 🤣 I like this whoopsie.
