The Official 2018 Frat Bracket: Elite Eight

frat bracket elite eight

It’s March and we’ve got bracket fever, so we ran back the Frat Bracket. The goal of the Frat Bracket is for the public (that’s you) to rock the vote as a means of determining the year’s frattest thing, whether that be an object, concept, action, event, or what have you. Follow along and help us decide what reigns supreme in the 2018 fraternity world.

The Elite Eight is coming to you LIVE with every 1 seed as well as a Cinderella still alive. An 11 seed made it to the Final Four in the NCAA tourney in Loyola Chicago, so what’s to stop #11 Jumping on foldable tables from doing the same in the Frat Bracket? Granted #1 Hazing is a bit more formidable an opponent than the lowly #9 Kansas State Wildchokers, but it’s still a matchup to vote on then keep an eye on. This week also features a few super heavyweight matchups in JUULing vs. Smirnoff Ice (Icing) and Fortnite vs. BP. Should be a wild time.

The 2018 Frat Bracket is brought to you by Man Outfitters, the #1 spot on the internet to buy apparel that I just made your day by making you aware of if you aren’t already a Man Outfitters customer.

Let’s get to our first region.

All polls will be closed this Friday, March 30 at 9:00 a.m. CST

The East Coast Region

#1 JUULing vs. #2 Smirnoff Ice (Icing)

This is up there with the 2016 Frat Bracket Championship Game when it comes to heavy-hitting faceoffs in Frat Bracket history. If you asked me right now who is going to win this matchup I couldn’t tell you. I have a feeling I know who this guy’s voting for, though…

I want to love anything as much as this kid loves his Juul (@HankHalverson)

This whole family, too.

Now it’s your turn. Who you got?

The West Coast Region

#1 Fortnite vs. #6 Beer pong

Two big-time pregame activities — one new and one timeless. A matchup that will serve to fully demonstrate or disprove the power of fads. I know a lot of you out there have had issues with Fortnite’s 1 seed given the seeding of fraternity mainstays like beer pong, and this matchup right here will see if your argument has merit or is t-t-t-trash. Evidence of the deserving nature of each:

Let’s see how this one goes.

The Midwest Region

#1 Natural Light vs. #3 Rush boobs

The defending champ, Natty, has made it back to the Elite Eight. An impressive feat, though unsurprising to anyone with even cursory knowledge of the role Natural Light plays in fraternity life. Just click here if you need a refresher.

Rush hooters, Natty’s opponent, certainly have a niche carved out for them. But I think it’ll take more than a niche to dethrone the king.

The South Region

#1 Hazing vs. #11 Jumping on foldable tables

Last Frat Bracket’s runner-up jumped up to a 1 seed this time around and has been on cruise control ever since. Its lack of passing any real, meaningful tests thus far may spell its demise, however, as hazing faces off against Cinderella — #11 Jumping on foldable tables. Will this epic storyline continue, or will hazing paddle the underdog into submission? You tell us.

      Was about to post virtually the same thing…

      Fortnite is for dweebs with no social life, and juuls are for snarky GDI’s.

    Juuling and fort nite are completely gay who the fuck writes this horseshit? At least pretend literally ANY of your sites traffic comes from college kids. If you juul and play fortnite all day you are not “frat” you’re a complete fucking loser I’d be surprised if you were even in a frat

      Heard you the first time but, yeah, it’s a sad state of affairs. Next year the Tide Pod Challenge will win the whole thing.

        Ya didn’t post this twice so idk, but I’m sure I’m somehow wrong and vaping/no life-ing video games is actually super duper frat according to the idiots on here

    Natty v. hazing and juuling v. beer pong… in a perfect world this would come down to hazing v beer pong in the finals but it looks like julling v (hopefully hazing just cause natty won last year). I hope hazing wins.

      But if the actives of today have to compare juuling and hazing to see which is more frat, they obviously don’t have a firm grasp on how to haze properly (or it’s purpose for that matter). And no, hazing “harder” is not necessarily proper. Just ask if something is bringing pledges together as a class and preparing them to start on a journey towards carrying your letters when you’re gone, if it’s not, don’t do it. If it is, ask yourself if there is something less harmful but more effective you could do? We are looking for efficiency and effectiveness, not “I got hazed harder than I should, not it’s MY turn and I’m gonna haze harder because I’m more frat!” No.

      Harm is not the point. Discomfort, sure. All good change is uncomfortable. Don’t confuse the two.
