What if you picked your bracket based on what each team cost? We made March Madness brackets for the men's and women's tournaments, if you picked each matchup by which school spends more money on their basketball team. (non-NIL) In collaboration with NCAABuzzerBters Data pulled from the most recent EADA NCAA spending census, 2024 fiscal year. Data only reflects university spending on the men's/women's basketball program (travel, coach salaries, food, jerseys, hotels, etc.). Data does not track the NIL payments of third-party collectives.
