Seems like analytics should focus heavily on the final 10 to 15 games of a season- Tennessee, much as I love them, is limping into the tournament. Meanwhile other schools like Duke are on fire, but are weighted down by a slow start.
Kentucky is a dark horse in this thing, in my view. They dominated Tennessee in both games this year - I thought they were the toughest team Tennessee played. Made me think if they get focused and play determined, they can do well.
