Maybe it’s just amnesia, but the recency/reactionary bias on the matrix seems out of control*

Auburn just moved above KU and UK in the Matrix*

There are so many brackets that it ends up being useful, but at least one is a high school club

I think those are the old rules. Nearly positive we could be their 3*

Nope. Top four seeds from a conference can’t be in the same bracket*

Question: when evaluating quality wins (quads) shouldn’t that be based on when the game is played?

In general I think teams are what their season says they are, not the streaks. *

I guess that's a risk with firing Holtmann mid season to "get a head start"

Did anybody else lose sound on the Florida game?

I don't believe they lost sound, I think the situation is so severe that they just stopped talking*

I swear they've updated Bracket Matrix 4 times today. We are now tied with Duke for 3rd 3 seed*
-
Carl Spackler
March 17, 2024, 11:51:16
Makes sense. Assume the sources are being updated today in light of yesterday.
-
ATL
March 17, 2024, 12:09:11
We should absolutely be ahead of Duke. Duke should be 14 or 15 on the Matrix. Bama is the clear 16

Still bracing for a 4 seed.

I think it’s happening. You can’t get KU off the 3 line unless you factor current form

I think we should clearly be in front of Duke, but I don’t disagree with your KU / UK analysis *
-

March 17, 2024, 10:24:29
I think Duke and Illinois are basically a dead heat. But we have to be above one of UK or KU, too*

GMAW

Honestly as long as our S16 draw isn’t one of the top 3 1s and we’re not playing BYU in Spokane

Yep. For better or worse, I think we deserve a 4.*
