BracketCaster on ESPN

[Icky_Mettle]

Has anyone else messed around with bracket caster on ESPN. I just simulated the whole tournament and ended up with a Oklahoma, Gonzaga, Marquette, Drake final four. Drake beating Oklahoma in the championship. Seems about right.

For me, it found Butler, USC, Miss. St., and Xavier in the Final Four, with Miss. St. beating Butler in the National Championship Game.

First Try:

Final Four

Wisconsin over Indiana
Michigan St over Western Kentucky

Finals

Michigan St over Wisconsin

3 of 4 Final Four teams from Big Ten...

It is pretty neat nevertheless.

I just got a pretty boring one. Final four was Tennessee, Kansas, Memphis and UCLA. UCLA beat Tennessee for the title. But the winner of the play-in game made it all the way to the elite 8.

 

[ISUAlum05]

I got American beating Tennessee first round - maybe the next 15 over 2 will happen....

I got American beating Tennessee first round - maybe the next 15 over 2 will happen....

I got UT-Arlington over Memphis and to the Sweet 16.

 

[cloneu]

I got Louisville, Wisconsin, Marquette, and Xavier with Wisconsin beating Xavier for the championship. Can't say that I would complain about that.

 

[ISUAlum05]

Kansas over American and Purdue over Miami

Purdue over Kansas

Also - Mississippi Val. over UCLA - first ever win for a 16 seed!

Far be it from me to question the validity of this well-honed simulator, but I will not have a Final Four of Memphis, Tennessee, Davidson and Drake on my bracket.

 

[state09]

I ended up with Kansas over Oklahoma and UCLA over Cornell, with Kansas beating UCLA in the championship. It had Texas-Arlington upsetting Memphis in the first round.

I did it quite a few times earlier today and never had anything unusual. Now I just did it again and the winner of the play-in game beat NC while Miss. Valley St. made the Final 4 where they lost to Stanford. The finals was Oklahoma over Stanford.

 

[dustinal]

Louisville over Kansas
Mich. St. over Xavier

Louisville over Mich. St.

My Noteable Upsets from this:

Boise State takes out Louisville, St. Joes, Tennessee and North Carolina to advance to the Final Four.

UMBC Beats Georgetown, meaning we never hear about Hampton again after this year.

USC advances to the Final Four.

Texas beats Memphis to advance to the Final Four.

Western Kentucky Upsets Drake, while San Diego upsets UConn.

USC upsets Texas 67-62 in the National Title Game!

I just realized what I was doing. If you click on the game instead of clicking on the "simulate round" button, the team you click on will win the game. So...if anyone else is getting some weird results, you have to click simulate round in order to get an actual simulation rather than a selected result.

All four 3 seeds made it for me. in the sweet sixteen game the 1 and 2 seeds all got beat. Stanford the champion

 

[BD4CY]

Notre Dame, Kansas, Marquette, Xavier in my final four... I had two 15 seeds winning in the first round

This is the silliest thing I have ever seen. If anyone wants to not make picks on their own, and really lose, this is the way to do it!

Wisc over NC and Oregon over BYU
Wisc wins it all over Oregon...

:no:


This is amusing though. A second run gets me American and UMBC in the sweet sixteen (both 15 seeds) and Memphis over Kent State in the final...
