President Obama picked Kansas last year, and this year he's doing it again.

The president played it safe with his brackets on ESPN, by choosing all four number one seeds in March Madness.

In the final, he chose Ohio State to lose to the Jayhawks.

Obama is an enourmous sports fan, on top of being an avid hoops player.

Standing with Andy Katz and studying Baracketology, the president jokingly admitted he read Katz's article on the tournament, but disregarded it.

There are 16 games starting on Thursday, in the second round of the 68-team tournament.
