Message: [QUOTE="Orangezoo, post: 943033, member: 237"] Lol you like to move fulcrum when trying to argue your point. Im not bashing the guy. Hell props to him as a fellow math nerd. But it is ridiculous to think you can use models to predict a champion. Any student of college basketball could give you the top 15 teams most likely to win the title. It would be congruent with much of what kenpom would say. Ken pom is beneficial in seeing where the dropoffs are in terms of who is for real and who is not. It is not any better than a human in saying who will win the whole thing. Comparing championship contenders requires qualitative analysis. Kenpom may back into a similar conclusion but its not ahead of the game. We over value these things. [/QUOTE]
