(AP) --  March Madness is back at the White House, and
President Barack Obama is picking the top seeds to advance to the
Final Four.


For the third straight year, Obama has filled out an NCAA
tournament bracket for ESPN. He says Duke, Kansas, Ohio State and
Pittsburgh will make the men's Final Four.


Obama predicts Baylor, UConn, Stanford and Tennessee will
advance in the women's tournament.


The president's entire brackets, including his choices for
national champions, will be revealed on ESPN on Wednesday,


The basketball-player-in-chief is 1-1 when it comes to college
basketball's national championship.

He correctly picked North Carolina to win in 2009. Last year, he
went with Kansas, but Duke ended up taking home the trophy.
