Most unpredictable?

There doesn’t seem to be THE team that will win it all.  At least that’s what I’ve been hearing, not having watched college basketball this year until this past week.  We may have a great range of teams that we will pick to win it all. We had 14 different teams picked to win it all in 2004; will we have more this year?. In the spirit of this open tourney, I will be submitting the first bracket entry of 2009, almost an hour before the seeds are announced.

This means I don’t know which region which team will be in either. So, though, weighted random numbers using Excel, here is what the bracket will look like. Since we don’t know which region is which, it will go from top to bottom as it will be announced in an hour.  Full disclosure below:

1st Round
Region1: 1, 9, 5, 4, 3, 6, 7, 2
Region2: 1, 8, 5, 4, 3, 6, 7, 2
Region3: 1, 8, 5, 4, 3, 6, 10 ,2
Region4: 1, 9, 5, 4, 3, 11, 10, 2

2nd Round
Region1: 1, 5, 6, 2
Region2: 1, 4, 3, 2
Region3: 1, 5, 6, 2
Region4: 1, 5, 3, 2

3rd Round
Region1: 1, 6
Region2: 1, 2
Region3: 1, 2
Region4: 1, 3

4th Round
Region1: 1
Region2: 2
Region3: 1
Region4: 3

5th Round
Region1&2: Region 2 # 2
Region3&4: Region 3 # 1

Winner
Region 3 # 1

Disappointed there’s no #12 seed advancing, but oh well.  Ten bucks well spent?  Haven’t decided a nickname yet, but maybe PRE-SELECTION PICKS.
