Message: [QUOTE="visitingcock, post: 4879092, member: 6872"] Here’s what I THINK is happening: The humans are applying something that computers don’t consider: UConn’s lack of a bench. The computers only consider wins/losses and quality of those wins and losses TO DATE. Humans vote based not only upon how good a team has performed to date but also upon how they think a team will have performed when the dust settles. The consensus of humans seems to be that UConn will be a sweet 16 team but not better because they only have a competitive starting five with no bench. This is the only logical explanation I can think of to account for the HUGE disparity between human and computer rankings. [/QUOTE]
