Obama Picks Temple, Nova β€” in the 1st Round

President Barrack Obama chose Temple to win over Arizona State in his NCAA bracket.

While the Prez picked Temple to make it to Round Two, that’s as far as TU gets, according to his bracket.

When it comes to Villanova, Obama thinks they will make it to the Sweet Sixteen, but lose to Duke.

Obama also admitted that expects Arizona to lose to Utah.

ESPN reporter Andy Katz asked the President if his choice has anything to do with his ex-opponent in the Presidential race, John McCain, an Arizona senator.

"It has nothing to do with McCain," Obama said. "I think Arizona is a great state. I love playing golf there. But they just squeaked in."

President Obama is an avid college sports fan (he openly supports the creation of a college football playoff system).

Obama is a Columbia University and Harvard Law alum, but favors UNC to be the National Champion. Pittsburgh, Louisville and Memphis round out his Final Four.
