221st 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 & basketball classic which used to be called 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 & basketball classic).

| Loyola Marymount Lions with Rick Issanza Bella Vista High Arizona class of 2019 did win their game against Bellarmine 80 to 59 by 21 points & have 6 to 2 overall record as of early november 30, 2022. That is superb they are able to beat opponents on their schedule through amazing scheming by Stan Johnson to achieve triumphs. |
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 2022 through 2023 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. |
Didn't
put LSU at any postseason due to them being labeled as committing level
1 violations which will most definitely make them get postseason ban
this year. I believe LSU will get postseason ban but if they don't I may
reconsider putting them at a postseason tournament.

footnotes.
For my seeds, here's format to decipher them. I'll briefly explain. Going for march madness, each # corresponds to overall tournament seed. E.g., 1.-> 1 overall march madness seed. Going for nit, each # which is 16 & over corresponds to overall tournament seed but each Unseeded Team has no #s attached. E.g., 1. -> 1 overall nit seed while Unseeded Team doesn't -> any #. Going for cbi, each cbi # usually corresponds to teams with winning record at 2022 through 2023 season & will have lots Of teams at AAC, A 10, ACC, Big XII, Big East, Big 10, C USA, Mountain West, Pac 12 & SEC at college basketball. E.g., 4. would be team with fine winning record at conference alphabetically near top Of alphabet & 9. would be team with membership at conference alphabetically below above conferences. Going for basketball classic, each # usually corresponds to conference alphabetically. E.g., 5. would be team with best winning record remaining at conference alphabetically near top Of alphabet & 16. would be team with fine record at 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 basketball classic. Use 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 & basketball classic location. So be fine with reading my # lists for 4 tournaments at d1.
