Filling out a perfect bracket in the NCAA Tournament has been an impossible task for anyone who has ever tried. And after day one of the big dance, there are only a select few perfect brackets remaining. One of these perfect brackets comes from someone more familiar with an entirely different sport, which makes it all the more impressive.

On ESPN’s Tournament Challenge platform, there are just 1,825 perfect brackets remaining after a crazy first day of the tournament that saw several huge upsets, including No. 14-seeded Oakland knocking off No. 3-seeded Kentucky.

Miraculously, one of these perfect brackets comes from Atlanta Falcons star running back Bijan Robinson, notably a Texas Longhorns alumni who has the program winning it all.

Naturally, fans couldn’t believe this bit of news about Robinson, praising him on social media for some of the bold calls that he made.

 

Bijan himself even took notice of the rare feat, seemingly surprised by his own success thus far in a social media post.

“Perfect day 1 haha kinda dope,” wrote Robinson on Twitter/X.

Going into Day 2 of the tournament on Friday, Robinson has some even more bold calls upcoming that could certainly spell an end to his perfect bracket.

In what would be the biggest upset of the tournament thus far, Robinson has the No. 15-seeded Western Kentucky Hilltoppers knocking off the No. 2-seeded Marquette Golden Eagles on Friday. Another big upset he has on Friday is Grand Canyon over St. Mary’s.

Will Robinson actually pull off the impossible? Chances are that he doesn’t. But regardless, even getting this far with a perfect bracket is certainly no easy feat.
