Care to dance? We’re diving through the second week of men’s basketball conference tournaments to reveal our supercomputer projections for all competing teams.
Upsets. Buzzer-beaters. Improbable runs. Epic performances.
March Madness begins with conference tournament play that will go a long way toward determining seeds and who will get into 2026 NCAA Tournament.
Cinderellas will sneak in, bubbles will burst, and the cream will rise to the top.
Leagues like the ACC, Big 12 and SEC will have teams doing all they can to boost their resumes for Selection Sunday. Others will need to win their tournament to be one of 68. And sure, there are some teams that are locks to make the Big Dance but looking to improve on seeding.
After making predictions for last week’s conference tournaments, we’re on to Week 2, having simulated each one thousands of times using TRACR (Team Rating Adjusted for Conference and Roster). It’s a net efficiency metric that calculates a team’s points per possession on both sides of the ball, adjusted for the strength of the opponent.
TRACR represents how many points above or below a team is per 100 possessions. An average team is at 0.0, while a really good team might have a TRACR rating of 20 or more.
As an example, a team with a TRACR rating of 20 is projected to outscore an average team by .20 points per possession (20 divided by 100) in a game. If the game had 70 possessions, then that team would be expected to outscore the average team by 0.2*70=14 points.
Each of the conference tournaments is ranked by the highest probability of winning.
