@ByinzR This year's Michigan team is currently rated lower than last year's Duke team... Also, guess you feel the same way about KenPom...

@CFB_Data So according to this, Michigan this year is higher than any Kentucky or Duke team ever? I dont buy it.

What does 75+ years of Michigan basketball look like in one chart? Now you can find out. Historical Elo ratings (1949–present) are officially live on CollegeBasketballData.com. Every game. Every season. Fully queryable via API. Michigan first 👇 Next up?

Kentucky

Continuing the CBB Elo series with a look at Duke. Really puts into perspective how impressive Coach K's tenure was.

@mr_peanutbettor I think you are overestimating how great the Fab Five teams were and grossly underestimating how historically great this current Michigan team has been to this point in the season.

@CFB_Data Bill, you the goat for CFBDATA, but this doesn't come close to passing the smell test. The gap between this year's team and the fab five is about the same as the fab five and teams who were barely above .500 in the big ten. This ELO doesn't mean anything.
