Yeah, the individual results it gives seem pretty useless. But the percentages look accurate. Either way its fun to play with.

how many times did you run it through before we beat Ucla?

Nate Aggie07,

About 5 times.

In response to your other post. These are simulations done by AccuScore which is pretty legit. Although, I agree with you, we will be favored against BYU.

My first simmed Final Four was North Carolina, Davidson, Pitt and Xavier, with UNC beating XU in the title game.

Second time through it was Louisville, Kansas, Michigan State and UCLA, with UCLA beating Louisville in the title game.

The second time it had American making the Sweet 16...found that rather amusing.

Both times were 100% simulated.

My Final Four was:

Washington State
Kansas State
Marquette
UCLA

UCLA beat Wazzou in the finals.

Interesting results of note: Portland State took out KU in the first round, Kent State in the second round, and matched up with Nova in the Sweet 16 where the computer had it 48%/52% in favor of Nova who won.

Austin Peay took out Texas. BYU beat us.

Hey dolt, you're not supposed to click on the teams. You click on the "simulate" button in the lower right hand corner.

Worthless, W KY just won the west and UNC was upset in the first round.

I came here to drink beer and kick ass, and I just ran out of beer.
