Can you change Oregon State to orange instead of mauve?  That's embarrassing for us.

Can you make Oklahoma State the "brightest orange?"  This isn't quite it. 

They have trademark/copyright on the term & very specific color, i'd hate to see you sued.

If you are looking for a sniff of parity in a sport of dynasties, look no further.

Since the tournament became approximately 33 man brackets, the percentage of teams entered that have at least one AA has trended higher. More for everyone.

YES!!! Thank you!

Based on the Intermat Pre-Season Rankings and using historical probability of finishing top 8 by seed, I give you my projected AA totals by school for all schools with ~1 AA (rounding up in some cases):

You may note that there are 35 schools on my list. That would be at the high end of the range for the number of schools with at least 1 AA. The last time there were 35 was 2016. 

Interpreting the Decimal

AA's come in whole numbers, so how can I have decimals?

The way to interpret the decimal is that it represents the probability of the next whole number greater than the number to the left of the decimal. For example, PSU is listed at 7.6 Predicted AA's. This means there is a 60% chance they will have 8 AA's (and a 40% chance they will have 7 AA's).*

*That is a bit of a simplification. I am slightly overstated the probability of 8 and 7 in my example by slightly understating the probabilities of  9, 10, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and 0. But that result is no more interesting than the one I give.

Do you have odds that one of the Iowa transfers will begin his gambling career?  I like the under on that 3.2.
