NCAA Tournament 2022 bracket picks, upsets, Cinderella teams: Model simulates March Madness 10,000 times

Upsets are everybody’s favorite part of March Madness, and now the hunt is on to find out which Cinderella teams will disrupt the 2022 NCAA Tournament bracket. Gonzaga is the top overall seed in the March Madness 2022 bracket, but the Bulldogs showed vulnerability in a late-season loss to Saint Mary’s. Could they be ripe for an upset against a talented team like No. 9 Memphis in the second round? Recent history shows that it’s not a matter of if, but when 2022 March Madness upsets will occur.

For example, No. 13 seeds are 5-7 in the last three tournaments, so you can expect double-digit seeds to wreak havoc on the NCAA bracket 2022. Which teams should you back to get a leg up on your March Madness 2022 picks? Before making any 2022 March Madness bracket predictions, be sure to check out the 2022 NCAA Tournament bracket picks from the proven computer model at SportsLine. 

Their proven projection model has simulated every game in the tournament 10,000 times. It absolutely crushed its March Madness picks last tournament, beating over 92 percent of all CBS Sports brackets for the second time in three years. The model also nailed a whopping three teams in the Final Four last year.

It knows how to spot an upset as well. The same model has produced brackets that have nailed 17 first-round upsets by double-digit seeds. It also nailed some massive upsets last tournament, including predicting the championship game between Gonzaga and Baylor, and hit Houston’s Midwest Region win even though the Cougars weren’t the No. 1 seed.

There’s simply no reason to rely on luck when there’s proven technology to help you dominate your 2022 March Madness pools. Now, with the 2022 NCAA bracket being revealed, the model is simulating the matchups and its results are in. You can only see it over at SportsLine.

2022 March Madness upset picks, Cinderella teams 

One of the model’s 2022 NCAA Tournament upset picks: No. 13 Vermont takes down No. 4 Arkansas in a West Region first-round matchup. A hot shooting night can propel a Cinderella team, and Vermont is well-suited to do just that. The Catamounts rank sixth nationally in field-goal percentage at 49 percent and are 36.3 percent from three-point range.

Arkansas enters March Madness 2022 having lost two of its last three. The Razorbacks were bounced 82-64 by Texas A&M, a team that didn’t even make the 2022 NCAA Tournament field, in the SEC Tournament. SportsLine’s model is extremely high on Vermont’s upset chances, making it a 2022 March Madness bracket buster that can give you a huge edge in your pool.

Another one of the March Madness 2022 upsets the model is calling for: No. 3 Texas Tech advances to the Sweet 16 by taking down No. 2 Duke. Head coach Mark Adams picked up right where Chris Beard left off in Lubbock this season. The Red Raiders went 25-9 and had an elite defense, giving up just 59.9 points per game.

Duke is unquestionably talented, but came up short in big games against Virginia Tech and North Carolina down the stretch. The model is calling for a surprising early exit for Mike Krzyzewski in his final tournament, as Texas Tech, which had two wins against Baylor and one against Tennessee this year, advances to the Sweet 16. Get all the upsets here.

How to make 2022 NCAA bracket predictions

SportsLine’s bracket features a No. 11 seed and No. 5 seed in the Final Four, plus a region where the No. 12 and No. 10 seeds are a must-back. With the model’s track record of calling bracket-busting upsets, you’ll want to see which stunners it is calling this year before locking in any NCAA bracket picks.

So what’s the optimal NCAA Tournament bracket 2022? And which March Madness underdogs will shock college basketball? Visit SportsLine now to see which teams you can back with confidence, all from the model that’s nailed 17 upsets by double-digit seeds since its inception and beat over 92 percent of players two of the last three tournaments.

Crew Simulates Stress of Mars Trip


(Newser)

A NASA crew has begun a 45-day trip to Mars, all in a habitat on the ground at the Johnson Space Center in Houston. A volunteer crew of four launched the simulated journey Friday, CNN reports, in an effort to learn about the effects of isolation and confinement during missions. The planet’s moon Phobos is the destination. NASA said the simulation is “designed to serve as an analog for the rigors of real space exploration missions.” While in the Human Exploration Research Analog, for instance, the crew will cope with its communication with the outside world being delayed for up to five minutes.

“This will help ensure that our astronaut crews can work effectively through challenges unique to long-duration spaceflight, including communication delays,” said Brandon Vessey, of NASA’s Human Research Program. This is the second of four missions to study “behavioral and team performance,” NASA said. The last one is planned for September, per CNN. The hatch will be opened on the HERA structure, ending the four volunteers’ mission, on March 14. “What we learn will inform how future exploration missions beyond low-Earth orbit are performed,” Vessey said.
