I'm not sure that our fate this season is dependent on an algorithm.

Kenpom may have this season's Duke and Auburn ahead of our team from last season but in all candor, if our '24 tournament team played either 100 times, maybe five games would still be close in the last three minutes.  Last years team would have handled either at a level similar to how we handled handled pretty much everyone we faced over the past two tournaments.

Yes, this year's team has flaws.  This years team has holes and weaknesses we haven't seen in a while and if I were a betting man I wouldn't put much on us getting through the sub-regionals.  What I see at the moment is that we are almost fully locked in to either a seven seed or a six seed and many are driving themselves nuts out of fear of a matchup that may never happen.

Getting back to Kenpom:  over the past decade, what percentage of teams finished in the tournament where Kenpom would have predicted them finishing?
