March Madness bracket: Don't make these 7 mistakes this year
Forecasting the NCAA men’s basketball tournament has become an American tradition, a fun activity for fans of all ages as winter fades and three weeks of March Madness begins
It’s easy to drift off course, however, so here are seven mistakes to avoid when filling out your bracket
Following your heart, instead of your head
Of course you want your school to win the national championship. The NCAA tournament is a popular and entertaining event because every team starts off six wins removed from clipping the nets
Don’t let loyalty cloud your judgment, though, and foolishly project your squad into the Final Four or, even worse, pencil them in as the national champion
Be honest in your assessment of their chances to survive-and-advance. Nobody knows your team better than you do, you’ve watched them through the good and bad all season
Try to make a sober and rational decision when deciding how long they’ll enjoy the Madness
Picking a No. 16 seed to beat a No
No. 1s and No. 16s have met 124 times in the NCAA tournament. And the No. 1s have won every time
Sure, there have been close calls. No. 1s Georgetown and Oklahoma escaped with one-point victories in 1989. Purdue nipped Western Carolina by two points in 1996
UNC Asheville pushed Syracuse to the brink in 2012 and Western Kentucky made Kansas nervous in 2013. One day a 16 will stun a 1. We’re certain, and perhaps this is the year
It wouldn't surprise anyone considering the wacky results of the regular season. As fans of college basketball, we’ll watch and enjoy (unless it’s our team that loses). Still, good luck correctly forecasting it. Guess wrong and you lose a valuable No
1 seed entirely too early and give away easy points to your fellow bracketeers
