NCAA Bracket Blank

A great deal of “expert science” is poured into almost every NCAA bracket 2010 prediction that you hear about on TV, the Web or in print. But if your NCAA bracket is blank, you aren’t alone. Even a casual fan of basketball knows that simply following along with the top seeds in each division is a proven path to success. In general, “Cinderella stories” don’t happen; upsets are called upsets for a reason. They are not the norm and they are not something to wager serious consumer financial products like quick loans over. If your NCAA bracket is blank, playing it safe isn’t a bad way to go, although the single-game elimination format of the NCAA Tournament still lends itself to unpredictability.
Thus, your NCAA bracket being blank is just fine

Sounds like a toss-up, doesn’t it? Even though going with top seeds is generally a safe path, it is still exceedingly rare that two number one seeds actually meet in the NCAA Tournament championship game. What is a confused NCAA Tournament fan to do, asks the New York Times. Go for any emptybracketitis theory that flies for you, apparently.
Pills to purge NCAA bracket blanks
* Try a logic regression/Markov chain! That’s what some Georgia Tech professors came up with LRMC, and according to the Times, it’s picked the last two national champions. They say Kansas will beat Duke, which is no regression of logic.
* Throwing basketball logic out the window, you may fill your NCAA bracket blanks with graduates who command the highest average salaries. That’s Duke, but no, that’s not an NCAA bracket 2010 prediction worth following. Sorry, Cameron crazies, but you aren’t quite good enough.
* Experts at CBSSports.com, Foxsports.com, The Daily News and WSJ.com have lots to say. Sift through the stats, hype and hoopla and see how you feel.
* Want to know who to pick for the Women’s NCAA bracket? Take the Connecticut Huskies. Case closed. They are dominant.
* If you’d like to whine about the whole NCAA Tournament selection process as Andy Staples of SI.com or Joe Sheehan of Basketball Prospectus do, go ahead. It’s such an exact science that we deserve results!
