NCAA Tournament Bracket Simulation 9.18.2017

Here is this week's NCAA Tournament Bracket Simulation, using the data my system generated as discussed in the preceding 2017 Simulated RPI Ranks 9.18.2017 post.  Again, take the simulation with a big grain of salt, for the reasons discussed in that post and in the preceding 2017 RPI Report 9.18.2017 post.

The Code in the list below means:

1:  #1 seed
2:  #2 seed
3:  #3 seed
4:  #4 seed
5:  Unseeded automatic qualifiers
6:  Unseeded at large selections (from the Top 60 teams)
7.  Unseeded teams not getting at large selections (from the Top 60 teams)
8.  Top 60 teams with records below 0.500 and thus disqualified from selection
9.  Teams outside the Top 60, but that would be potential at large selections if within the Top 60

I've included the Top 150 teams in the list.

Below the list, for seeds, I've listed other potential seeds.
