Been wanting to do this for a long time and finally pulled the numbers together. The idea is to compare the six undefeated teams by looking at MoV. Of course to do a legitimate comparison you can't just look at overall MoV. You need some way to make sure you're looking at comparable opponents. The solution is to assess them against (1) ranked opponents and (2) Regional and Final 4 opponents. In all cases I adjust for home court advantage by deducting 4 points for a home game, adding 4 points for an away game.
The results are as follows:
Texas 86, Ranked ??? (couldn't find info), Reg+ F4 15.5, F4 20.5
TN 98, Ranked 23.5, R+F4 21.5, F4 23.0
2002, Ranked 19.0, Reg + F4 18.5,F4 17.5
2009, Ranked 25.8, Reg + F4 21.0, F4 20.5
2010, Ranked 24.5, Reg +F4 26.0, F4 13.0
Baylor 2012, Ranked 17.7, Reg + F4 16.3, F4 15.5
By way of comparison UConn 2014 so far against ranked opponents: 23.6. Pretty good considering that KML and Tuck missed two-and-a-half of the games!
