Terms & Disclaimers

A Personal Project

Ubunifu Madness is a hobby project, built and maintained by one person in his own time. It is not a company, a commercial service, or a product with a support team behind it. It is free to use and comes with no service level agreement, no guarantee of uptime, and no promise that it will still be running next season.

In practice that means data can be delayed, wrong, or missing; a scheduled update can fail without anyone noticing immediately; and features can change or disappear. The methodology is documented on the How It Works page and the measured accuracy is published on the Track Record page precisely so you can judge the numbers for yourself rather than take them on trust.

Prediction Accuracy

All predictions, win probabilities, and analytics on Ubunifu Madness are provided for informational and entertainment purposes only. Our ratings score 71% accuracy on men's games and 76% on women's, measured on held-out seasons 2023-2025, but past accuracy does not guarantee future results. The NCAA tournament is inherently unpredictable — no model can guarantee outcomes. A 70% win probability means the underdog still wins 3 out of 10 times. Use these predictions as one input alongside your own knowledge, not as the sole basis for any decision.

Not for Gambling

Ubunifu Madness is designed exclusively for bracket prediction analytics, education, and entertainment. This platform is not intended to facilitate, encourage, or support sports gambling or wagering of any kind. We do not provide odds, point spreads, or any betting-related information.
