ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Bilas is surprising everyone with his national title pick.
The longtime ESPN college basketball analyst is picking No. 4 seed UConn to win it all this year.
Bilas revealed his pick on ESPN on Sunday night.
UConn has been playing very well as of late, and earlier this season, the Huskies looked like a top five team in the country.
But it's still pretty bold to go with a No. 4 seed to win it all.
"Looks like it’s a first round exit for the huskies again" one fan wrote.
"I’ve always loved Jay Bilas! Never said a bad thing!" another fan wrote.
"Long Live the Metrics," one fan added.
"He must not have seen the last 5 mins of the semifinal vs Marquette… they looked horrible with the game on the line" another fan wrote.
The 2023 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament begins on Tuesday with the First Four games.
