Auction Analysis!
During the auction, my model used data based mostly on Kenpom, but I made a ton of arbitrary adjustments based on market odds in the first round. Now I've got the whole bracket broken down with market odds, so these numbers should be fairly accurate. (Only problem was with VCU and their early opponents, where I had to fudge a few numbers because the line isn't out yet.) Here's everybody's expected points!
