[jctisu]

I would take Team B and Team C

 

[ClonesFTW]

I’m taking B and D.

 

[qwerty]

Breaking and Entering into the tourney, thus teams B&E.

 

[qwerty]

Using a quick made up formula: #wins + (60-NET) + (70-Kenpom) + (Q1Wx2) - (Q3Lx2) - (Q4Lx4) = score

A: 7 pts
B: 74 pts
C: 58 pts
D: 48 pts
E: 73 pts
F: 64 pts

B: 74 pts

D: 48 pts
E: 73 pts
F: 64 pts

That is way more math than anyone should be doing that early in the morning. That’s more than I should be doing late afternoon.

 

[BCClone]

I would put 4 in a hat and random draw. Make my life easier.

 

[Clonehomer]

I'm taking B and E. Either NET means something or we should stop using it.

 

[isutrevman]

I'd probably go B & E. I'd rank them in this order:

B, E, C, F, D, A.

 

[Cyclonepride]

Pretty sure I can tell at least three of them by their resumes, but I won't say the names.

B and E are my picks

 

[ISUTex]

B, E

 

[MeanDean]

I'm not playing but interested in seeing who the teams are.
Guessing you're probably waiting until late tonight - to give everyone who wants, a shot.

Just look up NET rankings . . . .

It might help to have record in the quads, instead of wins-only/losses-only. I realize it's an informal exercise so we couldn't get the full team sheet details.

This won't be too hard probably but whatevs...2 spots...6 teams...which 2 get in? (blind resume)

Team A:
Record: 17-14
League record: 9-11
NET: 78
KenPom: 72
Q1 wins: 6
Q3 losses: 1

Team B:
Record: 17-14
League Record: 8-10
NET: 43
KenPom: 40
Q1 wins: 6
Q3 losses: 1

Team C:
Record: 17-14
League Record: 11-9
NET: 53
KenPom: 38
Q1 wins: 3
Q3 losses: 0
Q4 losses: 1

Team D:
Record: 19-12
League Record: 10-10
NET: 57
KenPom: 50
Q1 wins: 4
Q3 losses: 1

Team E:
Record: 18-13
League Record: 10-10
NET: 37
KenPom: 42
Q1 wins: 5
Q3 losses: 3

Team F:
Record: 18-13
League Record: 12-8
NET: 47
KenPom: 41
Q1 wins: 3
Q1 losses: 1

For Team F, should that be Q3 losses, instead of Q1 losses?

 

[bsaltyman]

I think B and E are the best.

 

[cyclones500]

I’d go in roughly this order: B, E, A, D, F, C
What I think is current common order for bracket analysis: E, A, B, D, F, C

 

[alenz95]

I pick B and E.

For me I eliminate A, C, D, F immediately. Metrics indicate they're clearly the worst. That just leaves B and E. To me B is clearly better then E. B has more good wins and less bad losses.

 

[dahliaclone]

A is Wisconsin
B is Okie State
C is Michigan
D is Penn State
E is Rutgers
F Oregon

 

[dahliaclone]

Almost all expert brackets have Wisconsin still in or first four out. Okie State is to me the one team that stands out easily. But they’re behind all the big ten teams listed for getting in. Makes no sense.

 

[VeloClone]

Anyone who has Team A in should immediately lose any influence they have including losing their AP poll vote if they have one. A team with a NET in the (high) 70s should not be in the tourney unless they got their conference's autobid. Christ there are only 68 bids and a couple dozen of those are going to go to small conference autobids.
