2019 NCAA Tournament (using Tournament Maker)

[PointGuard]

Using Tournament Maker I set up the brackets for the 2019 NCAA Tournament as they have been actually selected. I created a new association and imported the Full College Basic Mod (correct team names and nicknames). Obviously the teams prestige/strenths, etc were as per a new association with DDSCB2019 with fictional players. But, here's the results for the NCAA Tournament.

#4 Kansas-80, #87 Northeastern-65

Wow, how bad was Northeastern to earn an 87 seed? They must have made some history.

#1 Kansas-92, #4 Kansas-69

Whoo! Go Jayhawks!

Championship:

#4 Kansas-93, #7 Louisville-63

Whoo! Go Jayhawks! (seriously)

As a KU fan in real life, this is wishful thinking for me, because without our starting C Azubuike we have not been anywhere near the same team that was ranked #1, played like a top team, had astronomical potential, and beat several great teams including Michigan St. and Tennessee back in November and early December.

Back to your simulated tournament, did Kansas win the Sweet 16 matchup or did North Carolina? Was North Carolina the actual national champion? Also, I was impressed by the remarkable Sweet Sixteen runs by #13 St. Louis and #14 Northern Kentucky, as well as the Elite 8 run by #9 Oklahoma and the runner up finish by #7 Louisville.
