I took a break from wallowing in depravity studying and buying a house long enough to make this bracket. Based on rudimentary statistical analysis of available data, my model has assigned a probability of about 43% as of today for Kansas to win the whole thing.

Sadly, I have my K-State team losing in the round of 8 to Syracuse (with a 40% chance to win that game, all other things being given). I estimate that K-State has a 3% chance to win the whole thing as of today, with all other likely outcomes being given.

UPDATE: Here’s emaw with the bracket I wish I could write.

A fighting axe. I’d almost rather buy that than a gun.
