Those four teams are South Carolina, Gonzaga, Oregon and North Carolina.

He is one of 657 people out of 18 million to predict the Final Four correctly. Isaiah’s bracket ranks 101st out of 18 million brackets in the ESPN bracket challenge.

Isaiah picked Gonzaga and UNC to match up for the NCAA championship game.

He thinks Gonzaga will win it all.
