It’s that time of the year again. For some, it’s just another month. Maybe you’ll go on a nice vacation for spring break. However, for the college basketball superfan, it’s finally time for March Madness. March Madness, the nickname for the widely televised men’s and women’s NCAA Division 1 Basketball Tournaments, is a spectacle filled with levels of intrigue and suspense unrivaled in the sports world. Every NCAA Division 1 conference tournament winner receives an automatic bid for entry, meaning that underdog squads are pitted against the juggernauts and titans of college basketball. Some notable upsets include #16 seed Fairleigh Dickinson’s shocking dismantling of #1 seed Purdue in the 2023 men’s tournament, and #16 Harvard triumphing over #1 Stanford in the 1998 women’s tournament. Stunning wins against the college basketball blue-bloods during this upcoming tournament may add to this list of improbable victories, but in most cases, the championship comes down to a battle of college basketball behemoths. As a result, here are a few of the favorites to watch for in the men’s and women’s March Madness tournaments.
