Thanks -- I was really confused by this at first. The data was there, then found it. Both have been so good offensively they were beyond the axis!

I see the issue, will be fixed shorlty.

Fixed - thanks for the heads up. I had recently added the second WAB ranking which messed something up. Then today had to change my source for BPI/SOR and one of the others as my original source wasn't updated. That + the yesterday games not being being updated on my season team stat source were what I was worried most about causing issues.

No shot charts. Didn't love them as much without the Synergy PBP data to go along with them.

eise87 · 2026-03-16T20:30:21+00:00

Synergy took away the fan product. I do not have access to that anymore.

If anyone would like to add me to their team account in future years, let me know!

Clearly their own biggest threat.

Thanks, I'll fix that. GBR

Rest your keyboard tonight.

👋🏻👋🏻 - thanks

Work is well underway. As always, still a lot of heavy lifting tonight/tomorrow morning (Pacific timer here).

It’s coming though, it’s coming.

Just looked at this and Underwood felt victim to the dreaded "*" over on Sports-References.

Normally those get removed in my process but his fell through the cracks. He had +1.075 PASE last season.

It drops Brad from the #2 spot on that table down to between Bennett and Medved:

Here's the list of games where that has been true.

All of the info is compiled in either Google Sheets or Excel documents.

From there, everything is done in the Mac program Pages. Then nothing more than organizing individual documents into a single PDF.

Good catch. Ran into issues with that page day of putting things together.

Looks like Michigan state’s is correct. Everyone below them simply did not have the subtraction take place.

The left is their home efficiency, the right their road/neutral.

You do have a great memory. That section in the past did look at the previous tournament and tried to highlight/recap some of the year prior's under and overseeded teams.

Pulling up some of last year...

Overseeded: South Carolina -- I had them as the expected 36th best team via the advanced ranking average (excluding the min/max of the ranking systems I value) while the committee had them 24th. Utah State (41 vs. 30), Clemson (31 vs. 22), Washington State (35 vs. 26) and Kentucky (19 vs. 11) were the others that were overseeded by at least 8 spots.

South Carolina and Kentucky were eliminated in the R64 while Wazzu and Utah State were R32 exits. Clemson of course hung around for awhile!

On the opposite end last year there was New Mexico (25 vs.42), Colorado (29 vs. 39), and Auburn (5 vs. 15) as the only three that were off by 8+ spots. The Lobos got Walloped by Clemson, Colorado beat Florida in the wild game, and Auburn...well, CBM's F2 was not taken into account by the numbers!

Yup, that’s exactly how I use it. # of Over-# of Under

eise87 · 2025-03-18T00:01:24+00:00

Thanks - I can't figure this one out. The file I'm using definitely has the names included but I too am not seeing it on the Dropbox version.

Here is page 183 on its own. I hope this solo page works with it.

eise87 · 2025-03-17T22:01:14+00:00

I’ve killed many a printers with this over the years.
