March Madness Bracket Strategy: KenPoms Efficiency Ratings for Predicting Champions

March Madness is back, and if youre filling out a bracket, KenPom offers a smart shortcut to spot real contenders. The stats site tracks efficiency ratings for every Division One team, measuring points scored and allowed per one hundred possessions. Over nearly thirty years, no national champion has ever ranked outside the top forty in offensive efficiency or the top twenty-five in defensive efficiency. Heading into Selection Sunday, just eleven teams clear both bars, including heavy hitters like Duke, Michigan, Arizona, and Florida, as well as intriguing under-the-radar picks like Gonzaga, Virginia, and Tennessee. This KenPom filter has held up through decades of upsets and Cinderella stories, helping bettors and pool players focus on teams with proven balance.
