It’s time once again for what we like to call Bracketology — college hockey style. It’s a weekly look at how the NCAA tournament might look if the season ended today.<\/p>\n
More than that, it’s a look into the thought process behind selecting and seeding the NCAA tournament teams.<\/p>\n
This is the first installment of Bracketology, and we’ll be bringing you a new one every week, until we make our final picks just before the field is announced.<\/p>\n
Here are the facts:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Sixteen teams are selected to participate in the national tournament. <\/p>\n
\u2022 There are four regional sites (East – Worcester, Massachusetts, Northeast – Amherst, Massachusetts, Midwest – Grand Rapids, Mich., West – Minneapolis, Minn.)<\/p>\n
\u2022 A host institution which is invited to the tournament plays in the regional for which it is the host, and cannot be moved. <\/p>\n
\u2022 Seedings will not be switched, as opposed to years past. To avoid undesirable first-round matchups, including intraconference games (see below), teams will be moved among regionals, not reseeded. <\/p>\n
Here are the NCAA’s guidelines on the matter, per a meeting of the Championship Committee: <\/p>\n
\nIn setting up the tournament, the committee begins with a list of priorities to ensure a successful tournament on all fronts including competitive equity, financial success and likelihood of playoff-type atmosphere at each regional site. For the model, the following is a basic set of priorities:<\/p>\n
\u2022 The top four teams as ranked by the committee are the four No. 1 seeds and will be placed in the bracket so that if all four teams advance to the Men’s Frozen Four, the No. 1 seed will play the No. 4 seed and the No. 2 seed will play the No. 3 seed in the semifinals. <\/p>\n
\u2022 Host institutions that qualify will be placed at home. <\/p>\n
\u2022 No. 1 seeds are placed as close to home as possible in order of their ranking 1-4. <\/p>\n
\u2022 Conference matchups in first round are avoided, unless five or more teams from one conference are selected, then the integrity of the bracket will be preserved.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Once the six automatic qualifiers and 10 at-large teams are selected, the next step is to develop four groups from the committee’s ranking of 1-16. The top four teams are the No. 1 seeds. The next four are targeted as No. 2 seeds. The next four are No. 3 seeds and the last four are No. 4 seeds. These groupings will be referred to as “bands”.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Additionally, the NCAA recently clarified its selection criteria to include a bonus factor for “good” nonconference wins. <\/p>\n
Given these facts, here is the top 14 of the current PairWise Rankings (PWR), plus Vermont, Canisius and Alabama-Huntsville, the current leaders in the ECACHL, Atlantic Hockey and CHA, respectively (we are assuming at the moment that the conference leaders will receive the automatic bids)(through games of January 9, 2005):<\/p>\n
1 Colorado College
\n2 Michigan
\n3t Boston College
\n3t Minnesota
\n5 Boston University
\n6 New Hampshire
\n7 Denver
\n8 Harvard
\n9t Massachusetts-Lowell
\n9t Ohio State
\n11t Wisconsin
\n11t North Dakota
\n13t Colgate
\n13t Cornell
\n16 Vermont
\n— Alabama-Hunstville
\n— Canisius<\/p>\nStep One<\/b> <\/p>\n
From the committee’s report, choose the 16 teams in the tournament. <\/p>\n
We break ties in the PWR by looking at the individual comparisons among the tied teams, and add Vermont, Alabama-Huntsville and Canisius.<\/p>\n
From there, we can start looking at the bubble in a more detailed fashion.<\/p>\n
The bubbles consist of Boston College and Minnesota at No. 3, Massachusetts-Lowell and Ohio State at No. 9, Wisconsin and North Dakota at No. 11, and Colgate and Cornell at No. 13.<\/p>\n
Breaking ties in the PWR using head-to-head comparisons among the tied teams, the 16 teams in the tournament, in rank order, are:<\/p>\n
1 Colorado College
\n2 Michigan
\n3 Boston College
\n4 Minnesota
\n5 Boston University
\n6 New Hampshire
\n7 Denver
\n8 Harvard
\n9 Massachusetts-Lowell
\n10 Ohio State
\n11 Wisconsin
\n12 North Dakota
\n13 Colgate
\n14 Vermont
\n15 Alabama-Huntsville
\n16 Canisius <\/p>\nAll ties were broken by individual comparison wins. The one that left a team out was the Colgate-Cornell comparison, in which the Big Red was the loser. Alabama-Huntsville is seeded ahead of Canisius due to RPI win.<\/p>\n
Step Two<\/b><\/p>\n
Now it’s time to assign the seeds, giving us four “bands” of teams.<\/p>\n
No. 1 Seeds — Colorado College, Michigan, Boston College, Minnesota
\nNo. 2 Seeds — Boston University, New Hampshire, Denver, Harvard
\nNo. 3 Seeds — Massachusetts-Lowell, Ohio State, Wisconsin, North Dakota
\nNo. 4 Seeds — Colgate, Vermont, Alabama-Huntsville, Canisius<\/p>\nStep Three<\/b> <\/p>\n
Since Minnesota is hosting, the Gophers are placed first in the West Regional. We then place the other No. 1 seeds based on their proximity to the regional sites, in overall rank order.<\/p>\n
No. 1 Colorado College is placed in the Midwest Regional in Grand Rapids. No. 2 Michigan goes to the Northeast Regional in Amherst, and No. 3 Boston College plays at the East Regional in Worcester.<\/p>\n
Step Four<\/b> <\/p>\n
Now we place the other 12 teams so as to avoid intraconference matchups if possible.<\/p>\n
Begin by filling in each bracket by banding groups. Remember that teams are not<\/i> assigned to the regional closest to their campus sites within the banding, except that host schools are again assigned to their home regional.<\/p>\n
Rather, last year the committee’s starting point was to seed so that the regional finals would be played by No. 1 v. No. 8, No. 2 v. No. 7, No. 3 v. No. 6 and No. 4 v. No. 5, if all seeds held.<\/p>\n
Therefore:<\/p>\n
No. 2 Seeds<\/i> <\/p>\n
No. 5 Boston University is placed in the East Regional because BU is hosting the East Regional, which is No. 3 Boston College’s regional. No. 6 New Hampshire is placed in No. 4 Minnesota’s regional, since BU cannot be seeded there. No. 7 Denver is placed in No. 2 Michigan’s regional, the Northeast. No. 8 Harvard goes to No. 1 Colorado College’s regional, the Midwest.<\/p>\n
No. 3 Seeds<\/i> <\/p>\n
Our bracketing system has one regional containing seeds 1, 8, 9, and 16, another with 2, 7, 10, 15, another with 3, 6, 11, 14 and another with 4, 5, 12 and 13.<\/p>\n
Therefore:<\/p>\n
No. 9 Massachusetts-Lowell is placed in No. 8 Harvard’s regional, the Midwest. No. 10 Ohio State heads for No. 7 Denver’s regional, the Northeast. No. 11 Wisconsin should be placed in No. 6 New Hampshire’s regional, but since UNH and BU switched in placing the No. 2 seeds, the Badgers go to the regional which contains the No. 4 seed — the West Regional in Minneapolis. No. 12 North Dakota would then go to BU’s Regional, the East.<\/p>\n
No. 4 Seeds<\/i> <\/p>\n
One more time, taking No. 16 v. No. 1, No. 15 v. No. 2, etc.<\/p>\n
No. 16 Canisius is sent to Colorado College’s regional, the Midwest. No. 15 Alabama-Hunstville is sent to Michigan’s regional, the Northeast. No. 14 Vermont is sent to Boston College’s regional, the East. No. 13 Colgate is sent to Minnesota’s regional, the West.<\/p>\n
The brackets as we have set them up:<\/p>\n
West Regional: <\/p>\n
Colgate vs. Minnesota
\nWisconsin vs. New Hampshire<\/p>\nMidwest Regional: <\/p>\n
Canisius vs. Colorado College
\nMassachusetts-Lowell vs. Harvard<\/p>\nEast Regional: <\/p>\n
Vermont vs. Boston College
\nNorth Dakota vs. Boston University<\/p>\nNortheast Regional: <\/p>\n
Alabama-Huntsville vs. Michigan
\nOhio State vs. Denver <\/p>\nOur next concern is avoiding intraconference matchups. We see that we have none in the first round. Not a single one.<\/p>\n
So it looks like we are all finished with our brackets, and the tournament is set.<\/p>\n
Bracketing the Frozen Four, if all four No. 1 seeds advance, then the top overall seed plays the No. 4 overall, and No. 2 plays No. 3. Therefore, the winners of the Midwest and West Regionals face each other in one semifinal (Colorado College and Minnesota’s brackets), while the winners of the East and Northeast Regionals (Boston College and Michigan’s brackets) play the other semifinal. <\/p>\n
But…<\/p>\n
Bonus Time<\/h4>\n
We know there is a bonus component to the criteria, the NCAA’s tweak to the system which rewards “good” nonconference wins.<\/p>\n
Without official word on the size of the bonuses, we take these numbers: .005 for a good road win, .003 for a good neutral win and .001 for a good home win.<\/p>\n
Does anything change? Absolutely. <\/p>\n
North Dakota is now all alone in 11th, and Wisconsin has fallen into a three-way tie for 12th with Colgate and Cornell. We have to break that three-way tie. <\/p>\n
Colgate wins the comparisons with both Cornell and Wisconsin, so Colgate is No. 12. Cornell wins the comparison with Wisconsin, gaining No. 13. Wisconsin is out of the tournament, and Cornell is in. But, Wisconsin is the leader in the WCHA, so using our method of selecting the current conference leaders as the automatic bid recipients, Wisconsin stays in, and Cornell is out.<\/p>\n
So, our new brackets, using the system above, has a few changes. <\/p>\n
West Regional: <\/p>\n
Wisconsin vs. Minnesota
\nNorth Dakota vs. New Hampshire<\/p>\nMidwest Regional: <\/p>\n
Canisius vs. Colorado College
\nMassachusetts-Lowell vs. Harvard<\/p>\nEast Regional: <\/p>\n
Vermont vs. Boston College
\nColgate vs. Boston University<\/p>\nNortheast Regional: <\/p>\n
Alabama-Huntsville vs. Michigan
\nOhio State vs. Denver <\/p>\nWe have one intra-conference matchup, and that’s Wisconsin vs. Minnesota. We make one simple switch in order to change it, and that’s to switch Wisconsin with Vermont.<\/p>\n
So our brackets are:<\/p>\n
West Regional: <\/p>\n
Vermont vs. Minnesota
\nNorth Dakota vs. New Hampshire<\/p>\nMidwest Regional: <\/p>\n
Canisius vs. Colorado College
\nMassachusetts-Lowell vs. Harvard<\/p>\nEast Regional: <\/p>\n
Wisconsin vs. Boston College
\nColgate vs. Boston University<\/p>\nNortheast Regional: <\/p>\n
Alabama-Huntsville vs. Michigan
\nOhio State vs. Denver <\/p>\nWhat if we took these numbers: .003 for a good road win, .002 for a good neutral win and .001 for a good home win? This gives the same brackets as the 5-3-1 bonus.<\/p>\n
That’s it for this week, we’ll be back with another analysis next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
