I like Money Ball (the book - haven't seen the movie), but I don't think that Sabermetrics applies very well to small ball and the NCAA.
Moneyball is definitely worth your time, especially for those who enjoyed the book. The movie found a way to make the subject matter entertaining to the masses and was nominated for 6 Academy Awards but like Billy Beane and the A's, the filmmakers ultimately came away empty-handed.

This.
I'm not a baseball fan at all and I enjoyed the film immensely.
