Since 1997, KenPom has been providing valuable college basketball analytics data.
The website has gotten more popular over the years, not only for fans, but for coaches and others across the college basketball landscape.
Recently, KenPom released its program ratings from 1997-2025, and in those rankings, Kentucky comes in 2nd, only behind Duke.
Kansas, North Carolina, and Arizona round out the top 5, with Florida, Michigan State, and UCLA not far behind.
Some notable other teams in the rankings: Tennessee comes in at #13, Louisville at #16 and Indiana at #17.
Texas being in the top 10 comes as a bit of a surprise also, especially being ahead of Connecticut.
What do you think of these KenPom rankings? Who should be included that isn’t? Or who is included but shouldn’t be? Who should be higher or lower?

Kentucky and Louisville is the best rivalry in college sports
No other fanbases will spend a whole day arguing about a player’s shooting splits in arguably the most meaningless game of basketball ever played

Best rivalry. Hands down.
