100 Final 4 Spots, only 38 schools

Since college basketball added a shot clock and the 3 point line, the modern era of college basketball is commonly accepted to have started in 1985.

In 25 years, there have been 100 Final 4 spots, but only 38 schools have made it to the Final 4.  This isn't an accident.  Some schools care more.  Just look at John Calipari.

One thing you should consider when selecting the teams in your bracket is this.  Has the team been to a Final 4 before?  This rule would have treated you well last year in the Sweet 16, only messing up with Oklahoma State-Pitt.
