Sweet 16 Charts, Data, and Win%

For the Sweet 16, I've prepared some matchup visualizations and my win percentages for each game.  So far this tournament I'm at about 75% correct going straight by the numbers. It's not overly impressive but that's why this tournament gets the ratings. The unexpected happens early and often. That number also is slightly better accounting for my east bracket. Which has zero teams besides the okies left. Everywhere else is in good shape to get my final 4 in and I think Gonzaga has a much better shot with UCLA than they did Iowa State .  

The following outcomes are produced by my linear ratings system. 

For each game the charts (and accompanying tables) cover the basic 4 Factors that Dean Oliver emphasized (Effective Field Goal Percentage, Rebounding, Turnovers, and getting to the free throw line), as well as offensive and defensive rating.
