Best Teams by Number of Top 25 Appearances

If anyone else enjoys watching these kind of 6 minute large data set presentations.  You can watch us shoot up in the 70 only to stall in the dark days.  Would imagine that we're only a couple spots off right now.  Pretty interesting to consider the next time we have the "who is a BB" debate.  Flaws include being ranked 25th is treated the same as being ranked 1st, and you can probably go ahead and knock off a couple weeks for teams that later had to vacate wins (cheating to be in the top 25 shouldn't count).  Obviously top 25 is completely arbitrary and this, just like any other metric, has flaws, but it's still interesting to watch.

Flawed for sure, but still pretty cool.

Biggest surprise for me is that UIUC is on there and UCONN is not.
