Damn, they have you losing to the Philadelphia Community College?

Then again, they have Nova losing to Arizona, and Kansas as better as well. Nova always goes to the Final Four in this bracket. And Seton Hall in the Final Four? WTF? Then I also saw Texas over Holy Cross and was like WTF, but then I saw Holy Cross over Duke and was like WTF? And then I saw Duke over Yale and was like WTF? So this appears to be nonsensical.

Temple always gets knocked out round 1 in this bracket. I think this is the first time they have ever won a match.

I'm not going to argue the huge cocks thing. Congrats on what really matters!
 
This "academic bracket" is based on team academic progress rank and graduation rates in case of a tie. It is not a measure of the schools themselves. In fact, the APR can be gamed by schools focusing on maintaining a higher team GPA. Is a system were there is incentive to discourage player's taking more challenging classes *after* they have used up their college eligibility in the best interest of any of these student athletes?
