3. These numbers are important because the past four national champions have all possessed offenses and defenses that ranked in the top 12 nationally in terms of adjusted efficiency. Through 3/9, only three schools meet the criteria this season. They are:
Kansas (1st in offense and 1st in defense)
UCLA (4th in offense and 4th in defense)
Duke (7th in offense and 7th in defense)
And for those of you wondering, UNC is 2nd in offense and 23rd in defense
