What happens when you combine NCAA Men’s Basketball and Congress? Well, we just did . The traditional Roll Call March Madness bracket is ready for your picks and complete with the member of Congress who presides over the school.

We’ve created a friendly competition among members. So fill out your own bracket and tweet at us with the #RCNCAA16 with which member you picked winning the tournament this spring.

As a proud Villanova alum, despite their tough loss at the Big East Tournament, I’m choosing Rep. Patrick Meehan, R-Pa., to go all the way.

Tweet it out and check back for more updates throughout the tournament — Go Nova!
