March Madness

As many sports fans know March Madness is about to start on March 21st. Every basketball fan has their eyes on Duke’s dynamic trio; Zion Williamson, RJ Barrett, and Cam Reddish. Many believe that Duke is the favorite to win it all, but the past says otherwise. Don’t get me wrong, I want to see Duke Succeed, but this tournament is called March Madness for a reason. Crazy upsets happen all the time. For example, last year first ranked Virginia lost to sixteenth ranked UNBC. The first one seed loss to a sixteen seed ever! The amount of upsets along with participating in filling out brackets to predict the winner is what makes this event so popular. This allows fans to get involved and even compete with friends. When filling out your bracket, think. There are “millions of possible ways to fill out your 2019 March Madness bracket” (CBS Sports staff). With the chances of filling out a perfect bracket so little at  1 in 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 a lot of money is at stake.
