This is the work of our own UPSF.

First, major thinks to Chris Thomas for all his work in working with the data and cranking these projections out. You owe it to yourself to check out his encyclopedic knowledge of the RPI here if you haven’t already.

It'll be interesting to see how close they are

My seeds are fairly close to AWK/UPSF. 3 & 4's are jumbled. They included GT as 4 I did not.

Most of first round pairings for Seeded teams are same. Minor differences like S. AL to FL I had while AWK to UCF. Vice Versa with Jacksonville. I had Furman to S. Car while AWK to UNC.

A likely reason for some of the seeding differences is certain conventions I follow in doing the seeding, based on what the Women's Soccer Committee has done with seeding over the last six years. Over the last six years, there has been only one time the Women's Soccer Committee has not seeded all of the top 13 teams (i.e., one team did not get a seed). So, for the present my convention is that all of the top 13 teams must be seeded. This is why I gave Georgetown, as one example, a seed.

I don't do the AWK bracket pairings. You are the expert on that.
