📄 2037 Dance Partners, Building a Better Bracket w/ EC Hood: Part 1 Feb 13th

Dance Partners, Building a Better Bracket. A bracketology presentation by EC Hood

It’s time for the first bracketology of the 2036-37 CBGM season. What stands out is the amount of very strong low-to-mid-major teams at the top of their leagues. We could see a lot of mayhem in the conference tournaments this year if there are upsets, because several of these schools are going to earn at-large bids in the game.

The Rules:

1. No two teams from the same conference will play each other before the Elite 8 unless impossible to avoid.
2. No at-large teams will be seeded below the 12 line unless impossible to avoid. The play-in at-large teams will always be the last four at-large teams that made it.
3. Note: Conference champion bid predictions are determined by the team with the best in-conference record, and higher NET ranking if tied, at the time of the update if the league title game hasn’t been played yet.
4. This is not a prediction of what the actual bracket will end up being in the game. It is a prediction of what the bracket would be if this season occurred in real life right now and was picked by the NCAA committee.
5. I’m not quite the NCAA committee – I’m not going to examine every injury to determine if a result was legit or not and I probably won’t have time to drill down into every team sheet. In the end, this is just for fun.
