Sleep Number threw out conventional tools – like probability and
stats – and, instead, examined how well each city slumbered this
semester. Add in some fancy analytics, and the result is a bracket
prediction based on which college towns slept the best, which is a
leading indicator of athletic
performance.

So, go ahead: copy this perfect basketball tournament bracket,
which may just help you win your pool. Or, more than
likely, you’ll just sleep better knowing you have the body’s most
essential need for peak performance – sleep – informing this
year’s selection.
