Official Kenpom vs. rjkarl NCAA Tournament Pick 'Em thread

I just try to pick who I think will win each individual game.

If you get the Champion you're probably going to be close to winning.

Well if someone wants to play I'll update the KenPom picks every day. We'll just take who he has winning overall, but I'll provide the percentages just for fun...listed in chronological order, here are Thursday's picks:

Ohio State over Dayton (66% chance)
Wisconsin over American (81% chance)
Pittsburgh over Colorado (74% chance)
Cincinnati over Harvard (57% chance)
Syracuse over Western Michigan (84% chance)
Oregon over BYU (59% chance)
Florida over Albany (96% chance)
Michigan State over Delaware (83% chance)
Connecticut over St. Josephs (64% chance)
Michigan over Wofford (90% chance)
St. Louis over N.C. State (58% chance)
Oklahoma over North Dakota State (63% chance)
Villanova over Milwaukee (92% chance)
Texas over Arizona State (53% chance)
Louisville over Manhattan (87% chance)
San Diego State over New Mexico State (73% chance)

Please post the whole tournament so I can fill out my bracket. Don't forget to consider close games as a fudge factor. Thanks in advance Butthead.
 
Every round of 64 game is projected to have the better seed win except Umass (six point underdog) from what I remember.

Arizona has the best odds of winning the tournament. I think it's like a 1 in 6 chance.

Since RJ's such a FUCKING PUSSY I'll chime in on behalf of #TeamKenPomIsaFuckingLoser

I disagree with Ken Pom in 5 games. I'll take:

Harvard
BYU
St. Joe's
NC State
ND State

Louisville over Manhattan (87% chance)
San Diego State over New Mexico State (73% chance)

On this list, I disagree on NC State and NM State (which I picked strictly to be a bracket buster). If I had time to think today, I might change NM St.

Ialso might put W in Final Four over AZ, but I'll leave it the original way.

P.S. THIS IS FOR FUN.THERE ARE NO WAGERS HERE.

Yeah but he only picked like 1.5 games against Ken Pom. Something tells me that his timidness is going to cost him.
