SS, I enjoy these updates. Question for you, how does the Bracket Buster game work? Do they not know who they are playing until the season?

Thanks. The Bracket Buster pairings are announced about 3 weeks ahead of the games (all played the weekend of Feb. 22-24). As best they can they match up teams with similar records/RPI, etc., though geography also can play a part. There's usually about 5 or 6 games out of the whole bunch that will have some impact on who does or doesn't get selected as an at-large team (if they don't win their conference tourney). Those are the games they put on television (ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU).
