ESPN bracketologist Joe Lunardi of Drexel Hill isn’t going to let the coronavirus or the NCAA stop him.

Even though the NCAA tournament has been cancelled, Lunardi still put together a final bracket Sunday, projecting what the NCAA tournament selection committee’s picks would have  been,  writes Terry Toohey for the Daily Times.

Lunardi usually updated his bracket as each conference tournament closed, than released a final bracket before the NCAA revealed the official 68-team field.

This year, there won’t be an NCAA reveal, but that’s not stopping Lunardi, who’s released a final bracket from the tournament cancellation Thursday.

“There won’t be any changes to it. I’m going to update tip times and point spreads and I’m going to assign ESPN announcers and then I’m going to tweak the tournament as it goes, like 7 o’clock on Tuesday night when Prairie View plays whomever, we’ll see if that has any traction. So I have actually fictionalized the tournament all the way through Friday at this point. That would be down to 32 teams.”

Like the rest of us, Lunardi is still trying to wrap his head around a March with no madness.

“It’s sad,” he said.
