Most Anticipated Contests

The Most Anticipated Contests in GameFAQs Contest history, based on each a poll that CJay and SB have run every season on the night before brackets lock, asking if people have submitted their entry yet. Every Contest is ranked by the percentage of GameFAQs users who anticipated the bracket enough to send in an entry for that season.

It should be noted that these results also partially reflect how easy it was to submit an entry that year; for the Top Ten games you literally only had to select 10 games from a dropdown list, whereas the '07 and '08 brackets wanted you to pick out 128 results between all the first and second place finishes, which surely seemed too time consuming for some.
