The NCAA Tournament hasn’t even started yet, but that hasn’t stopped us from cracking on with the Idaho Statesman Sports Bar bracket. And now that Boise State is in the mix, there is even more excitement in the Treasure Valley.

Last week we concluded the Round of 32 after you voted on your favorite spots to watch March Madness, and before the men’s and women’s tournaments have even tipped off, we’re ready to move onto the Sweet 16 at the Statesman.

Every single vote counts! We already saw some tight matchups in the Round of 32, with Suds Tavern squeaking past Double Tap by just five votes and Big Al’s beating out Jumpin’ Janet’s by one vote.

The Sweet 16 will see Big Al’s take on The Lift while a tight matchup between Hooligan’s Pub and Legends Sports Pub and Grill is in the cards.

Scroll down to vote on the bars that you think are the best for watching March Madness and you want to advance to the Elite Eight. You can also check out all 32 bars that participated in the bracket on the interactive map below.
