FiveThirtyEight Exclusive: Obama NCAA Bracket Suggests Bias Toward Schools from Swing States

Comments

I must have a swing state bias, too :(

[brassbikini]

LOL.. swing state good basketball bias..

And while I looove Obama picking my Memphis team to beat UCONN, I must disagree with him going further. Tigers all the way to the NC, baby. :)

I've got Memphis going to the final but losing to Pitt.

Hopefully you guys can shoot your free throws this year! (I'm sorry, too soon? lol)

[brassbikini]

Haha. No it's all good. We're actually much better at FTs so far this year. Hopefully they can still come through in clutch time like they did in the game against Tennessee.

I just wonder how Pitt's going to fair outside the Big East.. as far as refs and Blair being called for fouls where he normally wouldn't in conference play. If he goes out, I think they go down.

Going to the ESPN comment boards is even scarier. Tons of people are freaking out and being like "OMGZ MAYBE U SHULD B FIXINS UR MONEY MESS INSTEAD OF FILLING OUT A BRACKET!!?!!111!1!"

Nevermind that filling out a bracket takes about oh.. 15 minutes at the most..
