NFL March Madness: The Elite 8

And then there were eight. The NFL March Madness touchdown tournament has been pared down to eight touchdowns, including three from Adrian Peterson. Will anyone be able to stop AD? We’ll find out in the Elite 8.

NFL March Madness has advanced to the Elite 8 and as was the case during the NFL season, Adrian Peterson is dominating.

Peterson touchdowns make up nearly half of the remaining entrants as three of AD’s 2012 scores are still alive. At least one, however, will fall as the Elite 8 brings us a Peterson vs. Peterson matchup. It may be the first of two Peterson vs. Peterson show downs, but we’ll have to wait to see how the voting shakes out. Elite 8 voting opens today and will remain up until 8 p.m. ET on Saturday.

Here’s a look at the remaining bracket.
