March Madness is truly living up to its name this year. For the first time in tournament history, a 16 seed knocked off a 1 seed. So is your bracket busted yet?
I like to fill out multiple brackets each year to cover different scenarios. So far, most of mine are on life support. It’s not pretty.
I had both Arizona and Tennessee going further than they did. I certainly did not foresee Virginia falling by 20 to UMBC. I doubt anyone who didn’t graduate from the University of Maryland at Baltimore County did.
Every year, I have delusions of grandeur. I always think at the very beginning that this could possibly be the year that I get one of my brackets 100% right. That usually lasts until maybe halfway through the first day of the tournament.
The odds are that somewhere out there, somebody’s got a perfect bracket. Someone picked that 16 seed to win. Not me. Probably not most of you.
Usually at some point, I give up on my brackets and start pulling for as many upsets as possible. But not just yet.
