D1 Men's basketball computer ratings
My Men's Basketball ratings consist of the most important aspects of the game of basketball. How efficient are a team's offense and defense? How effectively do teams draw fouls and how well do they subsequently shoot free throws? How well can teams defend without fouling? Do teams use their possessions effectively without turning the ball over? Of course, in the end it all comes down to winning games, so win %, scoring margin and quality (Quadrant 1) winds are also incorporated. A combination of these elements has allowed me to correctly predict the NCAA champion 2 of the last 4 years with the runner-up in the other 2 years being the ratings "tournament favorite". That's the ultimate goal: predict which team is best equipped to win a National Championship.
