Sydney Thomas isn’t afraid to go off the board.

The former MikeTyson-Jake Paul ring girl, who has turned heads on social media, showed off her NCAA men’s basketball tournament picks this week ahead of the tournament.

The NCAA’s official account shared her bracket.

Thomas, who is a student at the University of Alabama, picked the Crimson Tide to win it all, with Michigan State, Houston and Missouri also reaching her Final Four.

She also picked arch-rival Auburn to get upset by Alabama St. in the first round.

Thomas also went with No. 12 seed UC San Diego going all the way to the Elite Eight.

Thomas had told DailyMail.com before the Super Bowl she has been stunned by her out of nowhere fame following the Tyson-Paul fight.

“I get people coming up to me now and asking for pictures, that’s been an adjustment for me,” she said. “It’s weird walking around in public now and getting recognized.

“I never really thought that’s a position I’d be in. It’s great but it’s also a bit overwhelming.”
