Given a parsed NCAA bracket, walk forward through each round to generate a bracket

Usage

walkTourney(preds, year = 2019, upset_bias = 0)

Arguments

preds	Predicted outcomes for ALL possible matchups
year	The year of the tournament. Used to subset preds, if preds contain multiple seasons
upset_bias	If you want more upsets in your bracket, a little upset bias will give close games to the underdog.

Details

If your probabilities are transative, there's no reason to simulate the tournament. You can just walk forward to generate a bracket
