188th 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).

with player Gyasi Powell Bishop Snyder Florida high class of 2020 beat
Jacksonville St 54 to 51 by 3 points in saturday game in Atlantic Sun
tournament so unfortunately it didn't matter as they proceeded to lose yesterday's game. Sad case what happened to mens basketball team as Jacksonville missed its chance to make march madness this year. |
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 2021 through 2022 season, Louisiana Tech Bulldogs have best overall record, but 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, here's format to decipher them. I'll briefly explain. Going
for march madness, each # corresponds to overall seed in tournament. For
example, 1.-> 1 overall march madness seed. Going for nit, each #
corresponds to overall seed in tournament. For example, 1. -> 1
overall nit seed. Going for cbi, each cbi # corresponds to only teams
with winning record in 2021 through 2022 season & will be having
lots of teams in AAC, A 10, ACC, Big XII, Big East, Big 10, C USA,
Mountain West, Pac 12 & SEC in college basketball. For example 1.
would be team with fine winning record in conference alphabetically at
top of alphabet & 9. would be team with membership in conference
alphabetically below above conferences. Going for cit, each number
corresponds to conference alphabetically. For example 1. would be team
with best winning record remaining in conference alphabetically at top
of alphabet & 16. would be team with fine record in conference
alphabetically below teams above it & there won't be any teams which
come from AAC, A 10, ACC, Big XII, Big East, Big 10, C USA, Mountain
West, Pac 12 & SEC because these conferences don't participate in
cit. Use these footnotes when u're trying 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.

course, read every comment which is pending moderation & hope u had
