I am going to start my daily college basketball predictions based on a formula I created last summer.  I have revised the formula throughout the year and it correctly predited the Nebraska upset of K-State and the Miami upset of Duke last night.  Hopefully it will keep working.  I am going to pick games involving top 25 teams or games that look good on paper.  I will try to pick televised games also.  Here it goes:

Notre Dame 66

Pittsburgh 63

 

Rhode Island 72

Massachusetts 71

 

Minnesota 57

Michigan 56

These are all the televised games tonight...I may do some lower profile games later.  I realize that a formula isn't going to get every single game correct but i believe that it can work well.  Don't criticize it until you give it a chance.....

It's complicated...it's got a bunch of stats and rpi and sos, etc. combined and then I add in home court advantage and revenge factors.
