It’s finally that time of year when baseball is back but
perhaps the greatest tradition of March is college basketball’s “March
Madness.” The NCAA Basketball Tournament is one of the greatest traditions in
sports as 68 teams enter the single-elimination tournament having the goal of
winning a title. From the underdogs upsetting the perennial favorites to the
buzzer beaters that define a college basketball player for the rest of his
life, March Madness brings over three weeks of excitement for college
basketball fans everywhere.
This year,
the defending champion didn’t even make the tournament, a school was awarded a
#1 seed for the first time in school history, and we saw the last of the Big
East. We still have yet to see a team prove that they are the best in the nation like Kentucky did last year. From watching college basketball this year, expect the unexpected.
Now comes
the hard part where millions of people try to pick the correct bracket. Do you
go with the favorites such as Kansas and Indiana? Or is this the year that a
New Mexico or VCU makes the Final Four? Picking a bracket can be so stressful
but just go with your gut.
Now it’s
time to let the Madness begin.
