Something to consider while filling out 2014 NCAA Tourney Bracket

I know it is way early to bring this up, but I was looking back past NCAA winners and I found a recent trend in final 4 teams. Since 2007's final four, at least one team in the final 4 was making a back to back appearance. to illustrate: Florida and UCLA in 2007 and 2006, UCLA in 2008 and 2007, UNC in 2009 and 2008, Mich St in 2010 and 2009, Butler in 2011 and 2010, Kentucky in 2012 and 2011, Louisville in 2013 and 2012.
In addition to that trend, only Butler, Mich St., and UCLA didn't win in the 2nd appearance.
So take it for what it is worth, but I thought some of you degenerate gamblers out there might appreciate the info. also which of last years teams(Louisville, Syracuse, Michigan, Whichita St)are most likely to make the return trip this year if the trend continues?

All of them seem like they could. I'd probably put it 1. Syracuse 2. Wichita State 3. Louisville 4. Michigan.
Cuse and Wichita are both still undefeated.
Louisville and Michigan have both looked really strong of late too.

Warren Buffet is offering $1,000,000,000 to anyone who has the perfect bracket.

Syracuse is a team with top 5 talent

Michigan has looked like an elite team of late, but without Mitch I dont think they make another run to the final 4.

The trick is to find someone clueless on what's going on aka The Grandma Theory.

there are tons of these things out there but they are all pretty much bullshite, even though they happen. you could center your bracket around these occurrences and still pick the wrong teams. any of the 4 from last year could make it.
the champ is always like top whatever in kenpom offense and defense or some shite. your final four teams should add up to like 11 or something. blah blah blah

I think cuse has a great chance of making the final 4 again. If a team can drain 3's against the zone, then we're screwed (aka Michigan last year). Fair, Ennis, and Grant have been playing great recently and if Cooney can pick it up with the 3's, I think we can win it all.
