87th post on this amazing blog. Blog gist will augur seeding. As blog tries to place teams by accurate parameters & teams who play with heart. Site called bracketaday.blogspot.com but not 1, but 4 brackets for march madness, nit, cbi & cit. Yet called bracketaday.blogspot.com due to technically 1 mm bracket daily plus other 3 tourneys I seed. Try my best to place teams by seeding (march madness & nit only) & location (march madness, nit, cbi & cit).

march madness.  

I have a compunction about placing d1 teams which lost players due to injury, lost players due to transfer, suffer quad 3 or quad 4 losses, teams which get involved in transportation crashes (which are rare but horrible) or which suck in last several games they played: all conditions I mentioned thus means I won't place them as higher seeds. Those are bad. I have to congratulate d1 teams which gained players back from injury, gained players due to eligible transfer, achieve quad 1 or quad 2 wins, teams which don't get involved in transportation crashes or which excel in last several games they played: all conditions I mentioned thus means I will place them as higher seeds for march madness. Those are fine. Other thing to consider. I place the team with best win out of its conference as that conference autobid. So if a Missouri Valley team beats a #1 Kentucky Wildcats team, that Missouri Valley team will be placed as that conference autobid. Ok. This rule about team with best win out its conference as that conference autobid only applies in nonconference play when there are no conference standings to apply to d1. It only applies when team with best win out of its conference has winning record; so no losing record or .500 teams will be receiving autobid. This best win out of its conference rule is what makes me different from other bracketology sites. I believe if team has best win out of its conference then they can easily beat some weaker teams in their conference, win their conference tournament & get autobid that year.Thus for non power  conferences any squad which has best win out of its conference can be seeded from 7 to 16, but they will still in my opinion be considered that conference's autobid. I don't think I'll do best conference record as autobid come conference play. I will probably do best overall record as autobid come conference play. Need to figure cbb things out. If u want me to do best conference record or want best overall record, leave a comment below. Currently, I plan on doing best overall record as autobid for march madness. For example say in 2020 through 2021 season,  Louisiana Tech Bulldogs have best overall record, but North Texas Mean Green have best conference record (this exact scenario actually happened in 2019 through 2020 season), then Louisiana Tech Bulldogs would be autobid for C USA. Reason I think this is because team with best overall record is likely the better team & definitely could beat team with best conference record in conference tourney ok. Those are 2 rules I have for putting 1 team as autobid. Thus be happy to see ur team do great & get autobid if scenarios come true. I enjoy making march madness seeds. That's all folks.

footnotes.

For my seeds, format to decipher them. Briefly explain. Going for march madness, each # corresponds to overall seed. For example, 1.-> 1 overall march madness seed. Going for nit, each #  corresponds to overall seed. For example, 1. -> 1 overall nit seed. Going for cbi, each # corresponds to if team had winning or .500 record 2019 through 2020 season & how great their conference was in 2019 through 2020 season, but once regular season actually starts, each cbi # corresponds to only teams which have winning record 2020 through 2021 season & how great their conference will be in 2020 through 2021 season. For example 1. would be team with fine winning record in fine conference & 9. would be team with not as fine winning record & who plays in not as fine conference as teams above it. Going for cit, each number corresponds to best overall record in list & how great their conference was in 2019 through 2020 season or will be in 2020 through 2021 season. For example 1. would be best winning record team in best conference of eligible conferences & 16. would be not as fine winning record team in not as fine conference as teams above it. Use these footnotes when to try to decipher my seeding above. That's my tips. I followed the rules with regard to march madness & nit seeding & march madness, nit, cbi & cit location. So be fine with reading my number lists for 4 tournaments in d1.

  1. I am confused how you don’t have Georgia Tech who is the 4 seed in the ACC tournament listed anywhere.

    1. 1 team in Pac 12 Washington Huskies didn't make tournament despite winning Pac 12 (then Pac 10) conference title several years ago so 4 team in ACC isn't a lock to march madness. While I understand ur frustration at Georgia Tech not in any tourney, this still doesn't mean I should go with the flow & put down teams everyone else has in their tourneys. Sadly Georgia Tech made tournament but lost in tournament 1st round to Ramblers. What site brought u here & what team are u a fan of.
