I read, Freakish Final Four, by Carl Fisch. In this very short article, Fisch said that of the nearly 6 million entries for the Final Four results, only 2 were correct. At the end of the article, he asked whether the reader thought this number should have been higher or lower. My answer to this is that I have absolutely no idea. Though I know Mrs. Smith prefers that we pick a side on controversial topics, I really don’t know if this outcome is odd or completely normal. By the way, I know this is not a very controversial topic. But if I had to choose one side, I would honestly imagine that this number would be at least a little bit larger. I find it odd that even though there are probably millions of different possible outcomes for this famous competition due to the fact that 64 different teams compete, that even with the use of logical deduction due to what teams have proven superior in the past only two people guessed correctly. I think this number should be higher by at least 4 charts.
