HOW IT'S DONE:
Not very well.- List all current conference leaders and "select" them as the projected winners.
- Referencing NET and KenPom, find the lowest ranked automatic bid and place at 68.
- Review results from 2/13 - 2/20.
- Move teams up/down along the seed line from last week.
- 3 wins or 2 losses is considered high yield up/down respectively.
- Inactive teams are used as a placeholder. 2 wins by the next lower result in a switch, then seed line adjustment.
- Re-evaluate teams placed significantly different from the Matrix.
- Clemson, Maryland, North Carolina, Oklahoma St.
- Fill 1-12 by some algorithm (in my head) of AP, NET, and KenPom.
- 13-16 are primarily based on NET rankings.
NOTES:
- Bracket fill-in is auto-generated by the S-curve.
- Teams are moved along the same seed line to avoid an opening round rematch.
- For simplicity, First Four teams are placed on the 11 line.
