High Point's upset of Wisconsin ends the hope of a perfect March Madness bracket for millions
The bid for a perfect NCAA men's tournament bracket disappeared for over 25 million people by mid-afternoon on Thursday, fueled by 12th-seeded High Point's first-round stunner over fifth-seeded Wisconsin. ESPN reported that just under 900,000 blemish-free brackets remained after the opening wave of games. The upsets also took a toll over at Yahoo, where 83% of the entries included a win by Wisconsin in the first round.
