538 deprecated their sports coverage, and by extension, their models, but Nate Silver still owns the models and published the raw data on his Substack (data available in screenshots if you want it for free; raw data is behind $8/mo paywall): https://www.natesilver.net/p/2024-march-madness-predictions
Awesome! Thanks for your work on this! Did you have to manually type all those values in from Yahoo? Or is there a way to download all those raw numbers?
What's nice is that each round is formatted exactly the same so once you highlight once, just leave it and jump to the next tab and you can just continue copying.
Are you going to post the raw data again that you gathered from ESPN/538 etc in the past that you input to determine optimization this year?
Thanks for your interest! I won't be sharing the raw data this year, but can send you to the sources I used to get your own:
ESPN unfortunately seems to have killed their Who Picked Whom data, so I used Yahoo's instead: https://tournament.fantasysports.yahoo.com/mens-basketball-bracket/pickdistribution
