A complete ranking of the NCAA basketball tournament field by academic success and graduation rates instead of wins and losses

Davidson’s men’s basketball team has won accolades this year for defying expectations on the court, finishing in first place in their inaugural season in the Atlantic 10 after being picked 12th, out of 14 teams, in the preseason poll. The Wildcats run an efficient, aesthetically pleasing offense, a welcome contrast to an otherwise rough college basketball season, where scoring was near all-time lows.

Wisconsin and Ohio St. team graduation rate is surprisingly low.
Yeah, I was surprised by Wisconsin. In fact I thought the whole B1G would do better. Pleasantly surprised by the Terps. I don't really think of Maryland as an academic powerhouse. Given the student riots and all.
