Jack Gohlke filled out his bracket for the 2025 NCAA Tournament this week and he couldn’t resist taking another jab at Kentucky.

Gohlke, who led Oakland to a historic upset over UK in Round 1 a year ago, once again has the Wildcats bowing out early in the NCAA Tournament. This time, Gohlke projects Kentucky will lose the 14th-seeded Troy.

It’s the biggest upset in Gohlke’s bracket, which does include a staggering 12 double-digit seeds reaching Round 2. However, the Final Four is somewhat-chalky with Michigan State, Florida, Duke and Houston reaching San Antonio. Gohlke is predicting the Cougars will win it all.

Here’s a full look at his bracket, which he shared with the NCAA this week:

Gohlke scored 32 points and made 10 3-pointers in an 80-76 win over Kentucky last season.

The Wildcats will be looking to make a deeper run this season, although injuries may keep them from doing so. Kentucky is currently an 11.5-point favorite, per BetMGM.
