App Measures the Madness of March Madness

There are few sporting events more exciting than the NCAA Basketball Tournament. It's sports tradition to fill out a bracket and predict how each of the 67 games will unfold. This creates huge interest in every game of the tournament. And now, there's an app called Thuuz that gives every game a rating based on how entertaining of a game it will likely be. The app uses an algorithm that produces a final "excitement quotient" that can be anywhere from 0-100. A score over 85 implies that a game's likelihood of being a must-watch is very high. So if you're flipping through the channels and you're not sure which of the five games on television you should watch, Thuuz can be very handy! The original article can be found here.
