The 2026 Final Four is officially set and while we have no unfamiliar faces, not many bracketeers went 4 for 4 picking the semifinal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Only\u00a00.3358 percent of total men’s brackets had No. 1 Arizona, No. 1 Michigan, No. 2 UConn and No. 3 Illinois all in the Final Four. These four programs have\u00a0eight national championships<\/a>\u00a0between them.<\/p>\n

We could have seen some even smaller odds, however. Iowa was one game away from being the first nine seed to make the Final Four since Florida Atlantic did it in 2023. Only 0.74 percent of brackets picked the Hawkeyes to be in the final weekend. Likewise, only 1.9 percent of pickers had six seed Tennessee in their Final Four if it was able to get past Michigan.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at how well the nation did guessing these teams.<\/p>\n
