Here's the NCAA's bracket rules, which I have added to the post.

Thanks!
Very complex but I guess the NCAA is trying to be as fair as possible during the selection process.

Now I see how you came up with the regions and teams there-in. Good work!

When I was reading about the actual team selections (rather than the placement in brackets)
I came up with a "what if?".
A voting committee member can't vote in any part of the selection process that contains a team he/she is affiliated with (good thing). It's therefore possible that quite a few members would be unable to vote in a certain phase of the balloting, because they are all affiliated with a team being voted upon.
This would mean that far less voters would be responsible for the picks in that part of the ballot. Might that skew the results??
