Going for a perfect NCAA bracket? You're more likely to win Powerball
The odds of picking a perfect bracket in the annual NCAA men’s basketball tournament are one in 9.2 quintillion, according to calculations by Jeff Bergen, a mathematics professor at DePaul University.
I don't even know what a quintillion is.

Should've read the whole article.
Oh, and in case your wondering: A quintillion has 18 zeroes.

What is between a trillion and quintillion? Quadtillion?

If anyone is wanting to track their brackets on their phone/tablet, Yahoo used to have a stand alone app in the past but it looks like now it is tied into their Yahoo Sportacular app. You can sign in and get all your updates through that app.
