People tell me I watch too much college basketball, I tell them they don’t watch enough

By far the best I’ve ever done to this point for a March Madness bracket 👀

Sure there’s some luck involved, but this year more than any other I valued the analysis of the individual matchups. Looking at strengths of weaknesses and how each team could (or could not) exploit them

[Michael Walsh @midmajormichael]

@MarchAnalysis One of the craziest things that’s ever happened to me 🤯

The importance of not only understanding the world of basketball analytics but also watching hours upon hours of college basketball and some luck (Tanner’s missed halfcourt shot) cannot be underestimated

[March Madness Analysis @MarchAnalysis]

Shoutout to my guy, Michael Walsh, 102nd in the WORLD😳. He took 4 MAJOR gambles that ALL paid off (Iowa>UF, Illinois F4, Texas S16, Tenn E8). Highest I’ve EVER seen someone. He’s in the bracket stats group chat- predicting a bracket is NOT 100% luck.

I pray I didn’t jinx him 🤞

[March Madness Analysis @MarchAnalysis]

I would like to point out that these were ALL educated and statistically backed predictions… with maybe 20% of gut feeling. We discussed all 4 gambles as very real possibilities, and Michael had the guts to actually pick them. Truly impressive work🤜

AZ>Mich

Wednesday night basketball!

[Michael Walsh @midmajormichael]

@T3Bracketology I know Miami (OH) is undefeated but putting them above Belmont, Liberty, and SFA is an interesting take

[The 3 Ball Podcast🏀🎙️ @3ballpodcast]

2 BIG calls for Adam and Michael!!

RED RAIDERS WIN IN ARIZONA🤯🤯🤯

[Michael Walsh @midmajormichael]

This is something I touch on in our latest @The3Ball_ podcast episode that just came out this morning!

There has been a trend that every mid majors 11-15 seed that has pulled of a R64 upset has played a top 70 KenPom ranked team within 10 points before March

[Sean Paul @SeanPaulCBB]

Go look at the mid-majors in the top-100 of KenPom and who they played in the non-conference.

Belmont: No P5 games
Akron: Played at Purdue
Yale: Played at Alabama
McNeese: Played at Michigan
Utah Valley: Played at Boise and SDSU
Stephen F. Austin: No P5 Games
Northern Iowa: Played at Saint Mary’s, neutral vs Tulsa (MTE)
Illinois State: played at USC & Utah State
High Point: No P5 games
Hawaii: played at Oregon, home vs Arizona State
Liberty: played at NC State

That’s 11 traditional one bid league teams in the top-100. Only one (Hawaii) played multiple P5 foes — and one was because ASU was already playing in Hawaii for an MTE.

We aren’t having a serious conversation if we aren’t acknowledging that high-major teams typically don’t want to pay and play mid-majors they can lose to. There’s no benefit to them in doing so for the most part. In turn, people get mad at the mids as a result.

[T3 @T3Bracketology]

I fell in love with college basketball as a kid through watching mid majors pull off stunning upsets in March. Would then track those programs the seasons to come.

It built my love for the college game. I’ve been a mid major fan as long as I’ve been a die hard CBB fan
