Statistically speaking, the odds of getting a perfect NCAA tournament bracket are 1 in 9,223,372,036,854,775,808.

That’s 9.2 quintillion which is 9.2 billion billion. If everyone on earth filled out 100 brackets, it would theoretically take 13 million years to get a perfect bracket.

To put in in the context of the lottery, you have better odds winning the Powerball jackpot (1 in 125 million) three times in a row than you do in getting a perfect bracket.
