Tp Ten Luckiest NCAA Hoops Teams

We certainly have been getting lackadaisical with our lists lately. So here is one list that should get you pumped for the weekend. It’s the luckiest teams in the NCAA. A couple of weeks into the NCAA basketball season we did a list like this one that went through the “luckiest” teams in college basketball, but this one will be the final version of the 2007-’08 college basketball year. The term “luck” is described at basketball-prospectus.com, but basically it means that a team’s win-loss record does not match up with their expected Pythagorean Win-Loss Record. We use Ken Pomeroy’s stat, combined with our own secret recipe to come up with this list.

TOP TEN LUCKIEST COLLEGE BASKEBALL TEAMS FROM 2007

1. Wagner
2. Dartmouth
3. Tennessee
4. Auburn
5. St. Mary’s
6. Dayton
7. NC State
8. Indiana
9. Wisconsin-Milwaukee
10. Richmond

So there you have it. Oh! And if you need something else to cheer you up, you can take a look at this article about Tyler Hansbrough by the fake news website TheOnion.com. Hope it send you off into the weekend with a nice attitude, because college basketball is a long, long way off.
