Let's start with 16 Seeds
I'm only going to post the teams that I would play against
Some possible 16 Seeds have play-in games ...fyi
Since 2002 there have been 43 .... # 16 Seed Ats Winners
1) ....Stetson .... 41/43 ....# 16 Ats Winners had 6 or Less Def Stats Over 250 Rank out of the 9 used that are posted above...
Stetson has 7 Def Stats Over 250 Rank
the 2 other # 16 Ats Winners that had 7 Def Rank Stats over 250
had a Kenpom SOS Rank of of 217 or lower ..... Stetson SOS Rank 267
Stetson would be a play against
2) ....Howard ( Play-In Game )
Only 2 ....# 16 Ats Winners had an Adj Def Eff Rank above 300 with an SOS Rank 315 or Higher
both of those team which covered had an Adj Off Eff Rank 173 or Lower

Howard would be a play against
3)...Wagner ( Play-In Game )
ZERO ....out of 43 .....# 16 Ats Winners had an Adj Off Eff Rank above 304
Wagner Adj Off Eff Rank 334
Wagner would be a play against
