New Bracketology is Out

[Super Hornet 2.0]

We get a 7 seed with some new teams feeding in. There's a lot of geographical podding going on creating some potential intra-conference second-round matchups, but there are too many Eastern teams for us to get any of that. I suspect that if this even comes close to panning out (they usually don't), we'll get Villanova.

First Round

Drake at ND State, feeds to 1 SD State

TN-Chattanooga at Austin Peay State, feeds to 8 Idaho

Youngstown State at North Dakota, feeds to 5 South Dakota

Nicholls State at S. Illinois, feeds to 4 MT State

Richmond at Incarnate Word, feeds to 3 Montana

Lafayette at Albany, feeds to 6 Delaware

Duquesne at Villanova, feeds to 7 Sacramento State

Gardner-Webb at W. Carolina, feeds to 2 Furman

This seems at least comparable to mine:

1 SD State
2 Furman
3 MT State
4 Montana
5 Delaware
6 Sac State
7 South Dakota
8 ND State

My other playoff picks (I'll leave my extraneous seeding out):

Idaho
TN-Martin
E. IL
Villanova
Albany
North Dakota
Duquesne
Lafayette
Holy Cross
Davidson
Mercer
TN-Chattanooga
W. Carolina
Nicholls State
Incarnate Word
Austin Peay State

How many of these teams have you seen play this year?

My guess is -- 0 -- but you did actually start watching Sac State games this year - so maybe 4?
