About this Dataset

College Basketball March Madness Dataset 2012-24

This is a dataset of team statistics for every March Madness team from the 2011-12 season to the 2023-24 season.

Data was scraped and aggregated from two sources: sports-reference and kenpom.

Basic stats via sports-reference are straightforward, but refer to Ken Pomeroy's website for more details on the advanced stats. Alternatively, you can check out this blog post for a description of some of these stats and the results of a model we trained to predict success in this year's tournament.

Statistics are inclusive of March Madness tournament games in addition to the regular season, which is why we removed total stats (e.g., rebounds, turnovers), as these are biased towards teams who made it further in the tournament.

Rows representing teams from 2012-23 teams include a binary variable indicating whether or not that team made it to the Sweet Sixteen.
