The 2021 NCAA Tournament has seen more upsets than usual with a No. 15, No. 12, and two No. 11 seeds still alive in the Sweet 16. After the first two rounds, we’re left with what is officially the most Cinderella-laden Sweet 16 in NCAA Tournament history. This year’s Sweet 16 features the lowest average seed of any year since the tournament expanded to 64 teams in 1985.
Many of you in the ASOR Bracket Pool picked the No. 13 seed Liberty upsetting No. 4 Oklahoma State, and understandably so. With so many 2, 3, and 4 seeds already eliminated, the ASOR men’s bracket pool looks pretty rough.
Congratulations to ESPNFAN87168910, whoever you may be (and nice bracket name by the way), who is leading our tournament challenge, yet he (or she) only has two of their Final Four picks still around. Everyone currently in the top 10 has Gonzaga winning the championship, with the exception of one whose selection of Illinois is already eliminated, and GoffHog’s selection of Baylor.
Thanks to all who submitted a bracket this year, and check back next week for the post Regional Finals recap!
