  Bracketology 101
Bracketology 101 is designed to serve as a more reliable, more accurate alternative to the Bracketology selections of other major sports websites.
Rather than predict teams based on the season ending today, or make wild predictions of the future, Bracketology 101 uses a unique "projection-prediction" method of selecting teams, giving fans a much more realistic idea of where their favorite teams stand in the eyes of the selection committee.
Bracketology 101 has four years of projection experience, and last year correctly predicted 63 of the 65 (97%) tournament teams.

 Sports -- Bracketology Cannot Match Women's Instinct in NCAA Pools
We chose the old-school — some might say old-fashioned — route: we picked the teams we thought had the best chance to win each game.
We made our picks based on the latest developments in the science of bracketology, but of course, we threw in the occasional upset for good measure.
But the good news is that I know four girls who won a Tombs gift certificate and might want some help spending it after they see a column about themselves.

 Change in Nineteenth-Century FRENCH CULTURE   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Drawing on the specific example of a recent survey course of nineteenth-century French poetry, I hope to highlight the reasons – some practical, others emotional and nostalgic, and still others seem, in retrospect, completely arbitrary – that come to play as I fill out my syllabus bracket.
I searched for more tips on filling out one’s bracket, hoping that bracketology strategy could further help me with my syllabus; after all, “Bracketology 101” always seems to rate quite highly in student evaluations: “A month into the new semester, the most exciting class of the year is finally about to commence.
It is simply known as Bracketology 101 […]” (“Brackets 101”; emphasis added).

 City Newspaper: Features: Sports: Bracketology: Take this job and shove it
The NCAA, advertisers, and seemingly every media outlet on earth capitalize on the interest in what has become known as "bracketology." But it's not science.
            Bracketology --- and to a larger extent, sports gambling --- is such an alluring paradox.
You swear you know the teams, the athletes, the statistics, all the details, but you're no better off armed with that knowledge in gambling than you would be by pulling a slot machine arm.

 Bracketology 101 for the Nevada Wolf Pack
As Nevada fans wait for the Wolf Pack to get into the NCAA Tournament and see where it will go in the first round, people like Joe Lunardi feed on the hunger of the fans to find out what’s going to happen to their teams.
ESPN analyst Dick Vitale calls Lunardi the “Michelangelo of Bracketology.” Lunardi helped make NCAA Tournament bracket projections an art form, or at the very least, a healthy cottage industry.
The public’s appetite for bracketing projections has grown exponentially since Lunardi, 44, started his pursuit of Bracketology nine years ago.
