    Women's hoops: Nebraska not in Obama's Final Four

    8:26 p.m. President Barack Obama filled out the women's NCAA tournament bracket for an ESPN segment scheduled to air this week. But he doesn't have Nebraska in his Final Four.

    Obama picked the three other No. 1 seeds – Connecticut, Tennessee and Stanford – to make it to San Antonio. He has No. 2 seed Notre Dame coming out of the Kansas City region.

    Just like last year, Obama also filled out a men's bracket for ESPN, this time selecting Kansas, Kansas State, Kentucky and Villanova as Final Four teams.

    Obama's picks are to be unveiled during Wednesday's 11 a.m. edition of “SportsCenter.” His interview about the women's tournament is planned for Friday.

    Last season, Obama correctly predicted that North Carolina would win the men's national title. His bracket ranked 903,125th overall, just above the 80th percentile in the ESPN's online contest, according to the Associated Press.
