EXPLANATION 
 
    There is no strict formula used by the NCAA Selection committee to determine
    what teams are invited to the tournament. However, the committee does examine
    certain criteria and probably priortizes them by some weight factors. The
    Tournament Selection Index (TSI) attempts to guess at the factors that the committee
    uses and weighs them uniformly. The TSI factors are: Computer Ranking, Polls, RPI
    Ranking, Strength of Schedule Ranking, Quality Wins, Losses and performance in
    the teams final five games. For a further explanation on the TSI, see detailed explanation
 
 
          
      
   
     
 
   
           
           

    The Computer Ratings require 4-5 games per team to stabilize.
