Introduction to March Madness
The NCAA men’s and women’s basketball tournaments are underway, and the top-seeded teams are looking strong. The highest-seeded teams playing at Fiserv Forum on the opening weekend were No. 3s Iowa State and Kentucky. However, the focus is on the No. 1 seeds playing elsewhere.
Men’s No. 1 Seeds
The men’s No. 1 seeds are Auburn, Duke, Florida, and Houston. According to a recent poll, Duke is the favorite to go furthest in the tournament. "Ah, Duke — something completely different," @RonaldVoigt4 commented, his sarcasm button activated. Voter @ronw_sportsnut observed that it would be a great way for Cooper Flagg to go out on top, as the Blue Devils freshman is expected to be the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft.
Poll Results

The Blue Devils’ top three players are freshmen, which could haunt them in the end, but there’s no denying the talent on this team is extraordinary.
