Highway Bracket Busts

It was a rough weekend for Kansas basketball teams and thus, it really hurt our bracket that was based on teams that come from states with the best highways.  It started off okay with us correctly picking 53 percent of the round of 64.  However, the third round losses of Wichita State, Kansas and North Dakota State eliminated all of our Final Four teams. (Coastal Carolina our other Final Four picked lost its first game).  And we only correctly picked two teams (Florida and Arizona) in the Sweet 16.  Ouch.  Perhaps, next year we should fill out our brackets using aviation, rail or transit metrics-- surely one of those would do better.
