The Jayhawks were ranked sixth in its region that year but got hot at just the right time in order to win it all. Arizona won it all as a No. 4 seed in 1997, but every National Championship winner since has been a No. 3 seed or higher with each of the last four tourney winners being a No. 1 seed.

Defense Does It!

Come on people…you know defense wins championships in every sport and this age-old adage is no different in college basketball. Teams that play some serious defense have the best chance of winning it all in my estimation. While offense can come and go, defense is all about effort and nothing else. Teams that can lock in defensively late in games stand an excellent chance of bringing home the bacon come March Madness time.
