There are 357 teams. The models take into account not only the changing results of everyone you played but everyone your opponents played. It isn't as simple as who won one game. That isn't irrational, it is complicated. Looking at the individual game stats, we gave up 1.09 points per...

To pick an extreme example in the other direction, using kenpom, the 2004 ACC had 7 out of 9 teams in the top 30. This year there are 3 out of 15. The ACC was farther apart from any other conference in rating in 2004 than the 5th place ACC is from the Big Ten in 2021.

They don't shoot a lot of 3s. They get slightly less points from 3 as a percentage of total points as GT. Both teams are below average in % of points from 3. Their 3 pt shooting percentage is slightly higher, with both teams slightly higher than the national average in 3pt %.

If you split it into types of dunks, Usher is the quickest dunker. He dunks it in the way up and anyone who tries to block it misses so badly it looks funny. Ish was a spectacular dunker. An all-timer in college basketball both for explosiveness and volume.

Who flattened our feet? Find that wanker!

They specialize in neutral courts apparently.

If you are planning to lose that sort of makes sense. If you are planning to win and want to avoid playing two good defensive teams back to back, you would prefer to play Miami.

We were ranked 14th going into the 2004 ACCT. We weren't a bubble team. We won one game (over #5 UNC on Jack's jump shot) then lost to Duke in the semis. The ACC was loaded that year, with out of 9 teams in the top 20. If you are thinking of 2005, we were ranked 25th and definitely not a...

I swear that I do not believe you are crazy. I am also not qualified to diagnose mental illness. :oops:

According to folks on twitter, Pitino isn't coming back.

Hard work pays off. He is pretty close as good as it gets at defending all positions. I like to watch him play.

This sequence pretty much put the game away.

Basketball and football are at completely different levels. It isn't easy for a reporter to do a real story on this stuff. No one will go on the record.

I can't believe college basketball fans at this point don't understand that Wooden's UCLA teams were the best that money could buy. This is very well known. K started playing "the game" when he got Jeff Capel to do it for him. The Zion Williamson saga is fairly easy to trace through simple...

We went from 56 to 41 in kenpom. I time-shifted this one. It was quite the dominant performance and a much needed road win.

News that will surprise no one:

Kenpom's model says GT by 5 so the line will be close to that. They rebound well and don't shoot very well. They don't turn it over much. Forcing turnovers is the key for GT.
