Obama Picks Indiana Over Louisville In March Madness Bracket

President Obama completed his annual ESPN March Madness bracket with Indiana defeating Louisville in the NCAA national championship. The president predicted Louisville, Indiana, Ohio State and Florida would reach the Final Four before deciding on the Louisville-Indiana final.

"I'm going with Louisville. I know it's not a surprise pick," he said on a tape shown on "SportsCenter" Wednesday. "And I'm going with Indiana. These are the two best teams right now, and for the championship I'm going back to the Big Ten. I think this is Indiana's year."

President Obama admitted he is heavily favoring the Big Ten in this year's tournament. The Big Ten ended the season representing five of the top-25 ranked teams and hold seven spots in the 64-team field of the NCAA Tournament.

Obama filled out brackets for both the men's and women's tournaments Tuesday in an exclusive interview with ESPN. This is the fifth consecutive year Obama has filled out a men's bracket with the channel.

He correctly picked two Final Four teams -- Ohio State and Kentucky -- last season. However, the president chose North Carolina to win the national championship, while the Tar Heels fell in the Elite Eight.
