Mr. Speaker,Phaninc the (former) president's NCAA brackets.
Former President Barack Obama released his brackets for the NCAA men's and women's basketball tournaments early Tuesday morning.
In the men's field Obama played it safe with just a few upsets in the first round. In the later rounds, he favored some of the more successful programs in recent years, giving UConn, Baylor, Kentucky and Purdue his Final Four spots. In the end, he picked UConn to cut down the nets after defeating Kentucky in Glendale, Arizona.
On the women's side the 44th president heavily favored the higher seeds with three No. 1 seeds – South Carolina, Southern California and Iowa – along with No. 2 seed Stanford in the Final Four. He chose the Gamecocks to lift the trophy in Cleveland.
Obama has picked the men's tournament winner twice since he began releasing brackets in 2009 and the women's winner six times since he began picking that tournament in 2010.
