QuoteThe teenager predicted that Northern Iowa would beat the Kansas Jayhawks. He picked Ohio to knock off Georgetown. And Cornell to knock off Wisconsin.

In fact, he picked every game through the first two rounds correctly. The odds of anybody doing that? One in 13,460,000, according to BookofOdds.com. It's easier to win the lottery. Twice.

Heard that this morning on Mike & Mike.  He picked Purdue to win it all - went with his heart and not his head.  Big mistake (then again, I may be eating my words come April).

If they were going to fake it, why not wait for the entire tournament to finish?

I may be autistic, but I am NOT a teen!

Oops, not about me... sorry... nm

Should have known it wasn't about me. I had one first round game (MU v UW) and one second round game wrong!

"Autistic Teen Has A Perfect Bracket So Far" is just itching for a politically incorrect joke followed by an apology tour and 10 hours of sensitivity training.

Has anyone listened to Tony Kornheiser's radio show yet?
