Harvard number crunchers like MU upset over Xavier
It's not all business at Harvard. The gang at the Harvard College Sports Analysis Collective, a student-run sports analytics group at Harvard University, reports, via the Wall Street Journal, that Marquette is the low seed with the best chance of advancing to the weekend. The group gives 11th seeded MU a 74.22% chance of knocking off 6th-seeded Xavier.

Article titled 'Its time to go upset shopping'
Here are some paraphrases:
'Harvard analytic club figured out which teams are the most likely to pull off an upset in the 1st round'
'Marquette is the most likely to upset, with a 75% chance'
'Results are based on X's weak schedule, and MU's ability to force turnovers, strength of schedule, etc."
