Falcons’ Bijan Robinson has perfect bracket after Day 1 of tournament

The first day of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament featured its share of upsets, including No. 14 Oakland knocking off No. 3 Kentucky. If you filled out a bracket this year, there’s a high probability that you didn’t make it past Day 1.

Well, unless you’re Falcons running back Bijan Robinson, that is. While only .0396 percent of brackets remain perfect entering Day 2 of the tournament, Robinson is among them.

Robinson has gone 16-0 with his picks thus far. While he still has a long way to go before completing the perfect bracket, it’s a pretty impressive start. The Falcons rookie has No. 7 Texas going all the way, defeating No. 1 UConn in the National Championship game.

Not many have Texas winning the tournament but at this point, it may be wise not to pick against Robinson. Day 2 kicks off Friday at noon ET. We’ll see how long Robinson can remain perfect.
