Reddit's /r/CollegeBasketball subreddit is simulating the entire tournament on Collge Hoops 2K8 (2K8 is used so they could create teams that weren't in the game).

They released the bracket and used the regular season champion as the auto-bid then used BracketMatrix to seed them.

Full Bracket here:

They also updated the rosters to 2020 so it should be a decent simulation!

Texas and Texas Tech won their "First Four" matchups.

Iowa handled Texas but suffered 3 season ending injuries (no idea if they're gonna keep that) and BYU narrowed out Stephen F Austin in a thriller.

Oregon is crushing New Mexico State but Vermont is keeping it close against Louisville.

Spent the time last night filling out the bracket for the 07-08 tourney on 2K8 for PS3. Thought about getting updated rosters so I could play this years tourney but 08 was a good one. Definitely going to play as Memphis and Davidson so I can be D Rose and Curry.
