4 ACC schools
1 B1G
1 Pac12

Sounds about right to me.

Crazy that UConn has 4 championships and are only #7; just really shows how inconsistent they’ve been

Massive gap between the blue bloods and #5

Wasn't 88 or 89 considered one our most stacked teams? Crazy to think our top 3 teams (10 and 12 too) didn't make the final four. But then we've had some crazy runs with lesser teams so I guess it evens out.

What are they using for points?

What are they using for points?

Most of you are probably wondering how I calculated all these results. Here’s how I did it.
- A championship is worth 10 points.
- A Runner- Up is worth 6 points.
- A final four is worth 5 points.
- An Elite 8 is worth 4 points.
- A sweet 16 is worth 3 points.
- A R32 is worth 2 points.
- An Appearance is worth 1 point.

Here’s a little help/ pointer: A National Championship run will accumulate 31 points. Since they won the title (10 pt), made a final four (5pt), elite 8 (4pt), sweet 16 (3pt), R32(2pt), and appeared (1pt), and won 6 games (6pt), this adds up to 31 points. Make sense?

I added up each team’s Tournament Wins, Appearances, R32s, S16s, and onward from there since 1985. The teams with the most success will obviously be higher on the list.

Why 1985? That’s when the NCAA tournament expanded to 64 teams.

Any other questions?

Not the word I'd use. Make it 10 years less and 91-15 and they'd be higher. It sucks the two weakest teams to win it all in my lifetime were them and both those titles came after their 15 year run as a powerhouse when they were a bubble team.

It' weird that there is a 1 point jump at each step except runner up>NC. It seems like runner up should be worth something like 7 points. I know that would probably not change the standings.
