    Only 108 NCAA tournament brackets remain.
    There were 14.7 million brackets entered in ESPN's Tournament Challenge prior to the start of the NCAA tournament. After just 16 games, only 108 remain unblemished.

    108 left out of almost 15 million.

    You really don't need to know how math works to figure out that percentage.

          I know, I always fill out one or two free one just for shits and giggles but never spend more than 2 minutes on them.
          Brackets are dart throwers paradise.

              No such thing as picking upsets. It's still fun for me and I've been doing them for nearly 30 years.

                    Yeah it's fun, and yeah, if it's for free how can it be for suckers?

                    Like I said before though the odds of a perfect bracket are like a gazillion to one, actually the odds are 1 in 9 quintillion.
                    That's 'quintillion' with a 'q' so I don't spend more than 2 minutes with them because you can spend 2 days trying to figure out a bracket and you still ain't hitting.
