Barack Obama picks Arizona and UConn as men’s and women’s champions in March Madness bracket
Continuing his own March Madness tradition, former president Barack Obama unveiled his NCAA Tournament brackets on Wednesday.
Obama, who has been doing this since his presidency in 2012, has Arizona winning the men’s tourney and UConn coming out on top among the women.
Both brackets are fairly chalky, as is often the case with Obama.

He has all four No. 1 seeds on the women’s side — UConn, UCLA, Texas and South Carolina — making it to the Final Four and beating the No. 2 seed in the Elite Eight in all but region (he has No. 3 TCU beating No. 2 Iowa in the Sacramento 4 bracket).

For the men, it’s No. 1 overall seed Duke against Arizona in the championship game, with South No. 3 seed Illinoi and Midwest No. 2 seed Iowa State making it to Indianapolis. His lone upset beyond the 8-9 and 7-10 matchups: No. 11 South Florida over No. 6 Louisville in the East.
Of course, Obama isn’t the only celebrity who got in on the action.
