Bijan Robinson Finishes Day One of March Madness with Perfect Bracket

Former Texas running back Bijan Robinson went viral following the opening day of the 2024 NCAA Tournament with a perfect bracket after 16 games.

Robinson holds one of 1,825 remaining perfect brackets out of a whopping 22,112,822 entries. Robinson accurately predicted upsets, including Duquesne over BYU, Oakland over Kentucky, NC State over Texas Tech, and more.

 

Robinson correctly picked each of the first 16 games of the NCAA Tournament. Some of the biggest surprises headed to the Round of 32 include No. 12 Grand Canyon, No. 14 Oakland, No. 11 NC State, No. 15 Western Kentucky, and No. 11 Oregon.

Robinson’s bracket features a final four field that includes No. 1 UConn, No. 3 Baylor, No. 1 Houston, and his alma mater, No. 7 Texas. The Longhorns would go on to defeat the UConn Huskies in the National Championship, which would go down as the team’s first trip to the Final Four since 2003, and their first basketball National Championship win ever.

While no one has ever completed a perfect bracket in March Madness, in the event that the NFL star can make it out of the first round unscathed, making history would be an understatment.
