President Obama got burned by UB last year when he picked them to upset West Virginia in his annual March Madness bracket with ESPN.
Obama’s not letting that happen again. In his 2016 bracket, revealed Wednesday, the president picked Miami to beat UB and Arizona before falling to Villanova in the Sweet 16. His national champion is Kansas.
UB, seeded 14th, is being picked to beat Miami in only 7.7 percent of ESPN.com brackets. Vegas Insider lists the Bulls as 14-point underdogs.
Here’s Obama’s full bracket. It’s worth noting that his picks last year only finished in the 40th percentile of all ESPN.com brackets.
Obama has filled out a presidential bracket every year since 2009, correctly picking the national champion once in his first year (North Carolina).
