There's no Cinderella, and other keys to picking bracket winners
I know the look. For the last three decades, every year at this time, I get the look. A friend or family member will slowly approach with a piece of wrinkled paper, a chewed-off pencil and a wistful stare. It's always someone who doesn't follow sports. It's often someone who doesn't know whether a basketball is inflated or stuffed. I know the look. I call it Bracket Eyes.
For every Lehigh or Norfolk State, there are dozens of small schools that are blown out by the first half of the first game. March Madness is a myth. The tournament is about March Greatness. The real madness this year is in picking a team like Davidson or Iona or South Dakota State. Don't do it. Only one team seeded 12th or lower has ever even won a Sweet 16 game. And, no, rich and established Butler is not a Cinderella. 2. Go Goliath.
