The first two rounds had some surprising upsets including beloved ESPN college football analyst and No. 14 seed, Lee Corso, taking down No. 3 seed Terry Bradshaw. Other upsets included No. 11 seed Keyshawn Johnson beating out No. 6 seed Joe Buck, and No. 10 seed Emmanuel Acho taking down No. 7 seed Darren Rovell.

“This is a fun, tongue-in-cheek tournament,” said The Spun’s editor-in-chief, Andrew Holleran. “The Spun has hosted similar tournaments in the past between 2016-2019, but this is the first time we’ve done one strictly for football media. It’s in jest and a fun way to celebrate the upcoming season. We’ll crown our champion next week, right before NFL Week 1 games kick off.”

In this year’s tournament, three of the No. 1 seeds (Stephen A. Smith, Skip Bayless and Nick Wright) and one No. 2 seed (Paul Finebaum) garnered the most votes.

In the 2019 bracket, Wright was a No. 16 seed and made a Cinderella run to win it all. Other past winners include Jemele Hill and Stephen A. Smith.
