TEAM | SEED | FINISH | TEMPO (out of 363) | UConn | 4 | Champs | 200 | San Diego State | 5 | 2nd | 264 | FAU | 9 | Final Four | 164 | Miami | 5 | Final Four | 104 | Texas | 2 | Elite Eight | 115 | Gonzaga | 3 | Elite Eight | 40 | Creighton | 5 | Elite Eight | 158 | Kansas St | 3 | Elite Eight | 45 | Alabama | 1 | Sweet 16 | 4 | Houston | 1 | Sweet 16 | 341 | UCLA | 2 | Sweet 16 | 234 | Tennessee | 4 | Sweet 16 | 285 | Arkansas | 8 | Sweet 16 | 58 | Xavier | 3 | Sweet 16 | 33 | Michigan State | 7 | Sweet 16 | 307 | Princeton | 15 | Sweet 16 | 186 |
Around 28% of the D1 teams are in the top 100 in tempo. 25% of the Sweet 16 was Top 100 teampo teams. Only 1 made it past the Sweet 16 and none of them made the Final Four. The two teams in the championship game were slower teams. Was this just a thing in 2023? In 2022 the champs (Kansas) were #71 and they played #45 North Carolina. Final Four included #161 Duke and #350 Villanova In 2021 Baylor (#194) beat #5 Gonzaga. Final Four included #324 Houston and #332 UCLA. In 2019 #353 Virginia beat #257 Texas Tech. FF included #199 Michigan State and #153 Auburn. 13 of the last 16 Final Four teams were slower tempo teams and 3 of the last 4 champions.

Where did you get the tempo data? It would be interesting to see if it has any correlation with rankings, kenpom defense, etc.
