.You can learn a lot by looking at the results of the last 10 NCAA Tournaments. From Kansas cutting down the nets in 2008 to North Carolina taking another title in 2017, only four teams (10 percent) that went into the tourney ranked outside the top 20 in KenPom advanced to the Final Four.Six of the last 10 NCAA champions were rated No. Another, Gonzaga in 2017, made the championship game. Yet another, Kentucky in 2015-16, made the Final Four.UPSET CITY:So that's where you find the right chalk. But KenPom can also help you identify bracket sleepers and busts based on two signature stats:. If a team is highly rated in either area, it can make up for deficiencies on the other end.Last year, South Carolina ranked 91st in offense, but made a Cinderella run to the Final Four as a No. 7 seed thanks to its third-ranked defense.
In 2013, Louisville had a miserable 113th-ranked offense but rode its top-ranked defense to the Final Four.THE LEGEND OF STEPH:Throw out the two teams that were the biggest statistical anomalies since 2010 - VCU and Butler in 2010-11 - nothing has been shocking in the national semifinals when taking KenPom into account. If a team is rated higher on both offense and defense, it can expect to beat anyone in any part of the tournament.But before using KenPom to make your March Madness bracket picks, here are some things to know about this year's NCAA Tournament field, based on his ratings.NCAA BRACKET BREAKDOWNS: KenPom: Top four teams in NCAA Tournament.

Consider rival North Carolina was No.
11 in those categories last year on the way to winning it all with a similar profile.Virginia, like Gonzaga last year, is No. 1 defensively going into this NCAA Tournament. The Cavaliers, however, are No. 21 offensively, five spots lower than the 2016-17 Bulldogs. So in a sense, Duke beating Virginia in all-ACC final is very similar to last year's North Carolina-over-Gonzaga title game.
Villanova figures to be the best game in the Final Four, with the Blue Devils edging the Wildcats thanks to a defense ranked a significant 14 spots higher.As for this year's Gonzaga team, although it is not as dominant defensively (No. 17), it is slightly better offensively (No.
That's good enough for a return trip to the national semifinals out of the weak West. The Wahoos and Zags will have a low-scoring affair to balance out the Devils' and Cats lighting it up.Duke, based on KenPom, is the most well-rounded of the top teams in the bracket. The numbers will add up to a sixth national title for Mike Krzyzewski and a second in four years.
