[Cracked Sidewalks] Bring on the Madness!

[brewcity77]

Here's the final update. A few changes to the bracket, guessing I'll regret at least one of them...

• Richmond knocked out North Texas. I really wanted the Mean Green in and hope the Selection Committee surprises us, but they were last in and Davidson is definitely in the field.
• Xavier out, Michigan in. This was tough because of Michigan's W/L record, but Michigan is better in every single metric, has better Q1 wins, and has fewer losses outside Q1. Xavier isn't out because of their recent play as much as the totality of their resume isn't as good as the totality of Michigan's. If I'm wrong, at least it's good for the Big East.
• No other changes from today's results. Too late for Tennessee, Houston, Purdue, or anyone else to improve at this late stage.
• I'm glad to be done. This is always a lot of work, but it feels like exponentially more with a toddler and newborn complicating matters.

Looks like MU may match up to Murray State.  I guess only Greg still around from the first matchup.

357 Paymon Score, which was the same score I had last year. 66 correct, 47 exact, 19 within one line. Missed Loyola by 2 & had TAMU & SMU in ahead of Rutgers and Notre Dame.

Write up on UNC coming Brew?

He’s already posted they are average O rebounding and poor pick and roll so there is some good news.

The glass won’t be our friend of course so MU will likely need to hit a lot of 3s I would guess

Well, you weren't wrong about Rutgers and ND.

Great job as always. Much appreciated!

Please explain to me how X lost out Rutgers, ND and Indiana.

Because they have Wojo 2.0 coaching them. Xavier fans must be really pissed. They aren’t used to missing the tournament this often.

Sort of reminds me of MU a few years back. Many, including myself, thought there was a good chance they’d make the dance. Weren’t even first four out either.

Does someone post results of all prognosticators?

Bracketmatrix usually throws something together. SHOCKER!!! Joe lunardi usually isn’t very close to the top. People need to stop relying on him.


Congrats to brew. Good work dude!

Not yet, but the more scores I see the better I feel I did.
