Bracketology 2/27/24 – Projections only

Hello, reader. I’m working on a column about Wake Forest. This column is not done yet, because as we have established, I am quite busy this semester. I am nonetheless determined to provide actual analysis rather than just throw up my graphic and call it day.

The Wake Forest column will be published right here at jakelikersbracketology dot wordpress dot com by Thursday morning. I’ll tweet it out once it is up. In the meantime, please feel free to stew on this week’s projections. As a bonus, I’ve also included this week’s seed list underneath the disclaimers

Sincerely,
Management (Jake)

The Usual Disclaimers

• Projections attempt to simulate what the selection committee would do given what we know about each team. This is not my opinion of the teams, this is my prediction of the committee’s opinion.
• This bracketology is a snapshot, frozen in time. It does not aim to predict what will happen; it is a simulation of what would happen if the season ended today.
• Conference champions are determined by whoever has the fewest losses in conference play, with NET used as a tiebreaker.
• Projections made based on NET data entering Monday but win-loss records entering Tuesday
• Please feel free to @ me on Twitter with any comments, questions, concerns
