In this episode of Xs and Joes, Bob Moats and Mike Wiemuth are joined by Andy Bottoms to unpack the 2026 NCAA Tournament bracket, the selection process, and what it all reveals about where college basketball is headed next. Bracketology Reality CheckThe guys open with Andy reflecting on another Selection Sunday—and why even strong bracket projections can still “grade out” poorly.Why bracketology success doesn't always match leaderboard resultsThe surprising disconnect between predictive accuracy and final rankingsA tongue-in-cheek case for “re-scoring” brackets based on tournament outcomesEarly hints that this year's committee may have valued things differently than expectedCommittee Philosophy & ProcessA deeper dive into how the selection committee actually operates—and where subjectivity still sneaks in.Whether the committee truly follows a strict process or has hidden preferencesWhere bias might show up (and where it likely doesn't)Why controversial matchups are usually dictated by rules—not conspiracyThe one area of the bracket where human judgment still matters mostWhat the Committee Really Values NowThis is where things get interesting—and where Andy outlines a subtle but important shift.The growing importance of “wins above bubble” in getting selectedWhy seeding may now lean more on predictive metrics like KenPomCase studies that highlight the tension between results and efficiencyA key question: Are quality wins losing influence in favor of efficiency metrics?Mid-Majors, Scheduling, and the System ProblemA fascinating conversation about the structural challenges facing non–power conference teams.The scheduling paradox: no one wants to play you… but you're punished if you don'tWhy some programs embrace tough non-conference games—and others avoid themHow newer metrics may actually help mid-majors get a fair shotThe hidden tradeoffs every program faces when building a scheduleTournament Takeaways (So Far)After the first weekend, the bracket has been relatively calm—but that might be a feature, not a bug.Why there were fewer shocking upsets than usualThe one result that did stand out—and why it happenedHow style-of-play mismatches can still flip gamesA bigger-picture insight about how the tournament may be evolvingThe Future of BracketologyThe episode closes with a thought-provoking look ahead.Could bracketology eventually become fully algorithm-driven?What we'd gain in accuracy—and lose in dramaThe tension between data-driven decisions and human nuanceWhy the future might shift the drama from Selection Sunday to the games themselvesBottom line:This episode isn't just about this bracket—it's about how the entire system is evolving. And whether we're ready for a world where the madness is a little less mysterious… and a lot more calculated.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this video, we're diving deep into the performance of West Virginia basketball commit Miles Sadler as he absolutely dominates the competition at the EYBL Scholastic Conference championships. While some "experts" might have overlooked him in the rankings, Sadler's performance proves that the Mountaineers have a certified star on the way. We also take a look at Kingston Whitty, another WVU basketball signee who played in the event. Plus, Ross Hodge and the Mountaineers are hot on the recruiting trail of some other top hoopers for 2026 and 2027. We talk about those as well. The  @365SportsYT  team is doing a bracket challenge. Couz will tell you how to get in on the action. First, Couz gives his thoughts on WVU basketball choosing to participate in the College Basketball Crown event in Las Vegas. Some fans say it's a waste of time. Is it? Couz gives his opinion.

The Madness is here! We are just three hours away from the start of March Madness, is this the best sporting event ever or is there more to it? One of the joys of the first two days of March Madness is that no one works and they're all at the bar, like Chuck and Buck will be later this morning. :30- We are just ONE WEEK away from Mariners Opening Day! Ok, now we can finally have the conversation- who will be the Mariners Opening Day starter and who should be? :45- The WNBA is getting pay raises and they're pretty significant and well-deserved after the growth of the league. The raises aren't only good for the current players, they're good for the future growth of the sport. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Is Rob Manfred a little too turned on by the WBC? Rob Manfred seems to be really excited by all of the success of the WBC and we have a feeling he's going to try and change it to try and maximize and it won't be good! :30- Sup?

Happy St Patrick's Day!! Yesterday the news came out that the NBA Board of Governors will have their first vote on expansion to Seattle and Vegas at their meetings next week. It's the first step towards the NBA returning to Seattle, a move in the right direction. There are still mixed emotions though as some think it's all, but a done deal and others are taking more of a wait and see approach and both are understandable given what's transpired (and what hasn't) in the last 18 years. Should we allow ourselves to believe the Sonics are back? :30- The WBC Gold Medal match is tonight as the US faces Venezuela! USA! USA! USA! :45- It's bracket time, so we take a look at the South region and who might emerge from this one. Is this the easiest one to predict? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How much of a boost can a team actually get by adding someone new into the mix?

We begin this Monday with the latest thoughts on the NCAA Tournament Bracket after Selection Sunday.  How do we feel about the path for Vandy as a 5 seed?  Vols get a 6 seed.  Did the committee get it right, and how fair was the bracket overall?  We take your phones.  Do we see any potential upsets brewing early on?

Cory Curtis from News 2 joins the show for his weekly visit.  He shared his thoughts on the bracket and latest moves for the Titans.  Robby and Joe give more insight into the path for Vandy and UT.  Could either team make a run?  The Women's bracket was also revealed as the Dores are a 2 seed and Lady Vols a 10.  Joe thinks Acuff from Arkansas could be the best player in the country.  Robby and Joe give their early favorites to win it all.

ITL discusses strategies people use to pick successful brackets and which mistakes consistently ruin them.

This week the guys talk about the NCAA Brackets. Tune in to hear which games they're looking forward to.

Will and Jim have more than one NCAA bracket to take a look at on this episode of ACC Nation. The guys start out with the 2026 NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament and take a look at more than just the ACC teams that received bids. You’ll hear about the matchups that stand out and should offer some exciting action. The big question is, can anyone take out the No. 1 seed, UConn? Coach Geno has yet another monster of a squad that has proven themselves all year long. NCAA Printable Bracket – Women’s Next up is the NIT where we find both Wake Forest and California grabbing spots that may further fine-tune their potential for next season. There’s more than a handful of No. 1 seeds to worry about in this NCAA bracket. Will and Jim point out some teams that you should go out of your way to watch as action gets underway. NIT Printable Bracket NCAA Bracket When you talk about an NCAA bracket you’re sure to grab attention when you start in with the men. It’s a bit of a brutal setup that doesn’t appear to open up any easy doors to the championship game. You want it? You’re going to have to really work hard for it this year. NCAA Printable Bracket – Men’s There are several teams in both the men’s and women’s tournaments that will have to ‘earn’ it with play-in games. On the men’s side, NC State and SMU have challenging foes to face in Texas and Miami (OH). If they make it to the second game they’ll be in for battle. On the women’s side, Virginia won’t have an easy play-in with Arizona State and that second game will be nasty. With all sports, if you want it, ‘earn it’. We’ll soon see which teams have the goods and can deliver. It’s a free ride to subscribe to ACC Nation Podcast so come join us on your favorite platform or watch us on YouTube.
