This is a fun way to plug in different variables and have the "machine" create your bracket for you.

FYI, if I emphasized priorities:

  • Offense weighted slightly higher than defense

  • Size & rebounding and Turnovers & Steals were weighted almost equally

  • Weighted 3 point shooing heavily

  • Weighted tournament experience slightly higher than size/rebounding & turnovers/steals

  • Set the Madness Meter at approximately 20-25%

  • Boosted Kansas (obviously)

  • Set Duke and Anti-Corruption bias On

  • Tried tweaking this a few times, but only got KU to the final four. Would love to hear/see others results with this fun tool!

    RCJH!!!
