Looks like it is based off of projected seeds and has not been updated to reflect actual seedings yet.

However, I've run it twice, and both times, Marquette defeated Xavier for the NC.  Hmmmm....

Marquette ousted by Duke in my simulation run. That was a final four match-up, by the way, after wins over the likes of Tennessee and Kansas.

I'll take it...despite the faulty brackets.

The bracket caster was done BEFORE the teams were announced, but put in the teams you want head to head to get a result

Espn.com also has a simulation based on Accuscore bracketcaster. It only took six tries to get MU to the Final Four bowing out to of all teams West Virginia who than upset Tennessee.  Kind of fun if you have some time to kill.
