Every team is ranked 1 to 341 in each category. Heck every player is ranked in every category. He tells you what teams use their bench the most, even who is the 234th tallest shooting guard.

I used to not be a huge believer that stats can really tell the story of a game, but after exploring his stats, I changed my tune.

Using his tempo analysis and efficiency ratings, I was able to write a preview of the SU/UMASS non-conference game last November and nail it exactly on what was going to happen.

I did it solely with numbers, knowing nothing about UMASS except what I had in front of me.

A couple days later, I did the same with the SU/Washington game.

Trust me on this, these stats are as perfect and useful as you can get.

Bonus site: Almost forgot this one: The Bracket Project.

The guy who runs this site compiles over 50 different bracketologies from across the internet and puts them into a massive matrix. If you want to see where you stand and aren't a fan of Joe Lunardi, check him out you'll get a great feel for where all the bubble teams sit.

So reason number 73 you should be pumped for the college basketball season is the ridiculous amount of great CBB reading material you now know about.
