My wife spotted this and pointed it out to me. Some of it is in earnest, and some is firmly tongue in cheek. There is a Lent Madness bracket, with the participants voting on which saints advance toward the Faithful Four and eventually the Golden Halo.
Bracket 2017

And there is also an analysis of the level of saintliness of the various schools involved in March Madness, broken down into "The Obvious", like St. Marys and Notre Dame, "The Perhaps", like Louisville (because they are Cardinals, although recent events argue that they're not very saintly), and "The Give Me A Break", like Duke - "Duke University (Blue Devils) - It does not matter how many games or titles Coach K has won. Your team is named after a blue tinted version of Satan".
I'm sure that many here would agree.
Bob Valvano even did a breakdown of Lent Madness on ESPN Radio, which was pretty funny. He bemoaned the lack of Joe Lunardi's assistance, and brought in ecclesiastic advisor for some bracketology.
