Barack Obama and I Have Almost the Exact Same Bracket
Tournament time is upon us and I'll admit that I've already filled out more brackets than I can remember. I have pools with friends, pools with co-workers, pools with people I've never met...There are a lot of Matt brackets out there. And, now, I may have to change them all because President Barack Obama and I have nearly the exact same bracket!
For the past four years, President Barack Obama has made his picks as part of ESPN's Barack-etology. It's always fun to see who the POTUS picks because he truly does know his stuff. However, I don't ever remember a year where he and I had a bracket that is as similar as it is this year.
Obama and I have 7 of the same Elite 8 teams and our Final Four, Championship Game, and Champion are exactly the same. Here's how Barack and I think the Final Four will play out:
- Midwest Final Four Participant: Louisville
- West Final Four Participant: Ohio State
- East Final Four Participant: Indiana
- South Final Four Participant: Florida
- Championship Game: Louisville vs. Indiana
