A measure of the deviation between a team’s actual winning percentage and what one would expect from its game-by-game efficiencies. ”Lucky" teams win more games than you'd expect them to based on their statistical profile and "unlucky" teams lose more than you'd expect. This is essentially a measure of the difference between a team's actual record, versus what Kenpom's rankings would predict their record would be, and he calls teams that overperform his predictions to be "lucky" and teams that underperform "unlucky". It basically represents the difference between his model and what actually happens.

Last season MU ranked 336th in the nation among 351 D1 programs in ‘Luck’. The prior year we ranked 226th. In 2014 we were 47th.

If nothing else, hopefully this year our 'Luck' will change.
