LAS VEGAS (AP) — Perfect brackets on the ESPN Tournament Challenge site fell hard after second-seeded Ohio State's exit Sunday in the second round action of the women's NCAA Tournament.
Seventh-seeded Duke rallied from 16 points down to defeat the Buckeyes 75-63, causing 1,283 perfect brackets to drop to 154.
Just .05% were perfect on CBS' site by Saturday night, but there was no update by early Sunday afternoon. CBS does not release totals.
Sheldon Jacobson, who runs the Bracketodds website, said going with chalk in the women’s bracket was more effective than on that men’s side.
