ChatGPT predicted:

UK 86 Oakland 65
UK 77 Texas Tech 71
UK 79 Marquette 75
Houston 82 UK 78

Oh, and it also predicted that some KY billhillies will be calling for Cal to be fired after the loss to Houston in the Elite Eight round. That's the most predictable thing ever.
KenPom:

AdjO = Adjusted Offensive Efficiency

AdjD = Adjusted Defensive Efficiency


UK :   Ranked #5 in  AdjO ;  ranked #110 in AdjD  (No team ranked worse than #17 in AdjD has ever won a national championship)

Oak:  Ranked #134 in AdjO ; ranked #165 in AdjD

Net Overall Efficiency(AdjO - AdjD) :  UK is ranked #21  ;  Oakland is ranked #137.


Based on net overall efficiency ,  KenPom has Kentucky winning by 17.


Factoid:   There are nine teams that have worse seedings than UK that have a better overall KenPom ranking( SD St. #20 , Mich St. #19,  St Mary's #18,  Wisconsin #17 , BYU #16 , Gonzaga #15 , Alabama #13 , Duke #8, Auburn #4).
