Crafting a perfect March Madness bracket is nearly impossible to do, but for those willing to try, it might be helpful to know the percent chance each seed has of winning in the first round. A #1 Seed has never lost to a #16 Seed in the history of the tournament, and statistically, speaking, a #9 Seed is a slight favorite against a #8 Seed.
