The Bracket was revealed yesterday.\u00a0 Quick thoughts and long ramblings below:<\/p>\n

I have two rankings systems: my Bayesian predictive power ratings, which tell how good the teams are, and my DSMRPI ratings, which tell how much they have accomplished.\u00a0 I would put teams in and seed them based on DSMRPI, which looks purely at win-loss data for the team, but for SoS looks at the Ken Pomeroy adjusted efficiency differentials to get a better idea of how good the opponents actually were.<\/p>\n

Four teams were left out that I would have put in based on DSMRPI:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Virginia Tech (as a 9 seed or so)<\/li>\n
  2. Boston College (as an 11 seed or so)<\/li>\n
  3. Minnesota (as a 12 seed or so)<\/li>\n
  4. Cleveland St. (as a 12 seed or so)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The four teams to be displaced?<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. VCU (I have them as 16th out!)<\/li>\n
    2. USC (5th out)<\/li>\n
    3. Georgia (4th out)<\/li>\n
    4. Marquette (3rd out)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Of course, by my Bayesian ratings, Marquette is actually quite a good team and a worthy participant (they just perhaps didn’t *deserve* to get in based on record and SoS).\u00a0 In fact, they’re 28th overall in the Bayesian ratings.\u00a0 Perhaps the committee looks a *little bit* at how good the team actually is and mostly at their resume.<\/p>\n

      Why not run a regression and find out?\u00a0 I used KenPom rank, Bayesian rank, and DSMRPI rank to predict the seed chosen by the committee.\u00a0 KenPom rank was not significant and negative, indicating that recent-play-weighted efficiency is used more by the committee than a season-wide efficiency.\u00a0 So after dropping KenPom out, here’s the result:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t
      <\/th>Coefficients<\/th>Standard Error<\/th>t Stat<\/th>P-value<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
      Intercept<\/td>1.863845332<\/td>0.52705<\/td>3.5364<\/td>0.000924<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      Bayesian<\/td>0.040652063<\/td>0.02565<\/td>1.5848<\/td>0.119712<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
      DSMRPI<\/td>0.135683071<\/td>0.02740<\/td>4.9513<\/td>0.000010<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n

      So basically, the committee looks at 3.3 parts resume (win-loss + efficiency SoS) and 1 part adjusted efficiency differential, weighted toward more recent results.\u00a0 The R^2 was over 70%, which was good given that I was regressing onto seed-line, which is in bunches of 4 (adding noise).<\/p>\n

      And I can’t complain with that method of choice.\u00a0 Combine mostly resume with a little Bayesian ratings, and that’s a good way to do the seeding.\u00a0 I’ll call this new rating ExpSd, since it’s the seed\/rating we’d expect the committee to follow.<\/p>\n

      Of course, even by that evaluation method a few teams are a long way from where they perhaps should be.\u00a0 All of the data is below.\u00a0 Utah State is the big discrepancy in the seed line.\u00a0 VT still looks like it should be in at the expense of VCU.<\/p>\n
