picks for mr @Bob Mapplethorpe
the biggest difference in spread is syracuse to cover (about 4.5 points) but idk if id take it with the BUDDY situation
others = indiana to cover
west virginia to cover
uc davis to cover (might go outright here but its very risky)
BRACKET PICKS- 2nd round stuff
1 AND 2 SEEDS IN DANGER
THE GUIDELINE: Pay special attention to Power Conference (read, regular multi-bid conferences) teams that are Top 10 in AdjO or AdjD or Top 20 Overall. They are 7-7 against #1 or #2 seeds since 2008. Be wary of #1 or #2 seeds with AdjD outside of the Top 20. They are 15-9. All other #1 and #2 seeds? 47-8.
And if you think I'm being biased against the Little Sisters of the Poor, I'm not. Mid-majors who fit that same profile? 1-7.
All other teams are 12-62.
3 VS. 6 OR 11
THE GUIDELINE: Beware of #3 seeds that reside outside of the Top 20 of Overall Efficiency. They are 4-4. All others? 26-8.
To be fair, since 2010, that number falls to 18-8, but there is some logic behind the weakest 3 seeds being the most likely to not make the Sweet 16.
12/13 VS. 4/5
THE GUIDELINE: Avoid at all costs. This is pretty straightforward. Since 2008, there have been 17 instances in which a #12 or #13 seed faced off against a #4 of #5 seed to get to the Sweet 16. They are 2-15.
ill post sweet 16 and beyond stuff tomorrow along with a preview for our matchup
