Look at these two sets of numbers:
2014 Kentucky
Finished 11th in Ken Pom
Offensive efficiency of 117.6 (10th in the country)
Defensive efficiency of 96.9 (41st in the country)
2016 Kentucky
Currently 8th in Ken Pom
Offensive efficiency of 117.9 (11th in the country)
Defensive efficiency of 95.6 (36th in the country)
That is a remarkable parallel. But it doesn't necessarily tell us how the Cats will do. After all, the 2014 Cats almost won the national championship -- but they also almost lost in the second round.
I'm starting to get too excited to even talk about this team.
