Our Game Simulator started out as a fun project that allowed me to write some code that played out games possession by possession. It turned into something that picked margin of victory quite well, and also correctly picked Duke to win it all last season. It picked over 75% of the ACC regular season games which was better than every person in our Game Picking contest. So, the next step is to predict the tournament.
Our legal team wants to remind you, this is just for fun and not intended to be used for gambling purposes.
In case you missed it, here are the previews that have already been completed:
Game Sim Previews the East Region
Here is the Game Sim's predicted winners for the Southwest Region...
What do you think? This one went pretty much with the lower seeds winning with the exception of Georgetown in the 2nd round and Notre Dame in the final 8. Let me know where the game sim missed in the comments.
We'll continue our series of posts soon when we post the next region. Stay Tuned!
