Nothing is changing here at UM Hoops and we’ll be covering Michigan’s path all the way through this year’s NCAA Tournament, but I wanted to let you know about a special project I’m launching to help you fill out your brackets this week.
CBB Guide is the Ultimate NCAA Tournament Preview tool to help you pick games this week. I took everything that I’ve learned previewing games at UM Hoops and combined the most important stats and insights into an all-in-one preview tool that has everything you need to analyze games and teams — all for just $20!
We’ve crunched the numbers from every college basketball data source you can think of on the internet to find the stats that matter for every game and potential matchup in the tournament. That includes:
- Tempo-free stats, trends and matchup analysis
- Rolling efficiency margins to identify the hottest teams in the field
- Shot profile and shot selection analysis
- Player impact via on/off stats
- Season-long betting data against the spread
- Player and team analysis based on play type data
- Much more
That data feeds into our team, region, game and matchup previews where we’ve filtered out the noise to show you the most important stats, data visualizations and insights for any given matchup.
Here’s a sample of what to expect:
This year’s inaugural guide includes:
- Matchup Breakdowns for EVERY potential matchup. Pick two teams, click GO and you have a detailed preview.
- Every advanced stat necessary to give you an edge
- Insights from shot, play type, on/off, tempo-free, recent trends, specialty stats and more.
- Game Previews
- Everything in our matchup preview for scheduled games
- Updated throughout the NCAA Tournament
- Team Breakdowns:
- Advanced Stats and Rankings
- Rolling Efficiency Trends
- Performance vs. Seed Expectation
- ATS History
- Shot Selection Data
- On/Off Court Impact
- Personnel Scouting
- Region Breakdowns:
- Efficiency Landscape
- Hottest vs. Coldest Teams
- Individual Efficiency by Role
- Advanced Shooting Data

Non-biased opinion: If you don't get this before filing out your bracket, you're a dumbass. https://t.co/wdUpXiObqx

Big hat tip to @umhoops. Created https://t.co/NrE5pLsx2j. Mounds of info about every NCAA Tournament team. Going to use it tonight when I complete my bracket. Bargain at $20.

My friend and colleague @umhoops has put together one heck of a resource for filling out brackets. If you're looking for great analysis of anything regarding #MarchMadness, I'd recommend checking out https://t.co/FKgLTY2BIN.

Dylan - Did I see you created a bracket contest for your subscribers just for fun? I was thinking of using your Ultimate Preview to try my luck against the forum here but I can’t seem to find the post you made sharing that…or I’m crazy and getting my bracket contests confused.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed. Just trying to spread the word a bit before the whole project is completely irrelevant at noon on Friday.
