ESPN: No perfect NCAA Tournament brackets remain in contest
March Madness is a double-edged sword.
Fans love to see wins from the likes of Middle Tennessee State, Yale and Hawaii.
Fans hate to see teams like Michigan State, Baylor and Cal lose, because it means their brackets are busted.
Before the Round of 64 games were even completed on Friday, ESPN reported that none of its roughly 13 million entries this year were perfect.
Brackets officially busted! There are no perfect brackets remaining in the ESPN Tournament Challenge. https://t.co/04wm7OfVJA

And it wasn’t just ESPN.
No perfect brackets on ESPN or CBS.
