Only 0.6% of perfect brackets in the NCAA women's tournament remain after Virginia's upset win over Georgia

· Yahoo Sports

It took a little bit of time, but we finally had an upset in the women’s NCAA tournament.

That, of course, eliminated a massive amount of perfect brackets that were still standing as the second day of play got underway.

After a very straightforward day of play on Friday, in which there wasn’t a single upset across the board, about 29% of brackets filled out by Yahoo Sports users were still perfect. But finally, after No. 10 Virginia knocked off No. 7 Georgia in overtime on Saturday afternoon, a massive amount of brackets were wiped out. That was the first true upset of the tournament.

The Cavaliers’ win in Iowa City brought the amount of perfect brackets still standing down to just 0.7%. Notre Dame’s win over Fairfield later on Saturday cut that down even further to 0.6%. 

Virginia forced overtime after a huge 3-pointer from Romi Levy late in the fourth quarter, which eventually forced the extra period and propelled the Cavaliers to the 82-73 win. They had to pull that off inside of a very hot Carver-Hawkeye Arena in Iowa City, too. That venue doesn’t have any air conditioning, and Eastern Iowa was being hit by a rare March heatwave.

Things have been very chalky on the women’s side so far. By comparison, only six perfect brackets were left standing on the men’s side after the first round of play. But slowly, women’s brackets are falling. We’ll see how many will be left standing entering the second round come Sunday.

This post will be updated with more information shortly.

In Jaipur, members of the Shia community staged a massive protest following the Eid prayers. Slogans were raised against the Israeli Prime Minister and the U.S. President.

Looking at the protests, tight security arrangements were put in place in Jaipur. Police and RAF personnel were deployed around all major mosques, including the Eidgah, Chowk Jama Masjid, and Chak Shia Jama Masjid. Police teams also conducted surveillance using drones, and flag marches were carried out in several locations on Saturday.

Similar protests were seen in several parts of Ajmer as well. Maulana Syed Taqi Jafar, the Imam-e-Juma of Dorai in Ajmer, said that Muslims are observing a period of mourning following the martyrdom of Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. While people came to offer Eid prayers wearing black armbands in Sikar.
