Amaze Us With Your Obscure College Trivia

Selection Sunday is ... Sunday! That means we must begin the time-honored tradition of Deadspin's patent-pending NCAA Tournament Preview Capsules.

Once again, we would like to showcase three interesting tidbits about each school participating in the men's basketball tournament that begins ... holy crap ... next week! However, no single human could possibly hold all that knowledge, so we must outsource it to you, the experts. If you would like to contribute, send an email to me with the subject: "Tourney Capsule — FAVORITE TEAM NAME" only don't actually write FAVORITE TEAM NAME in all caps or I will hate you. Write the school's name and give a reason or two why you should be trusted to represent that team to the world.

Below is a list possible/probable entrants. This is obviously a fluid enterprise, so do not complain about omissions/errors or I will hate you even more than the guy who writes in all caps. Here is a link to last year's work if you need a refresher. Good luck.

* means the team has an automatic bid. X means they are spoken for.
