Normally, no. But it’s far more likely this year (and completely permissible), especially if Tennessee and Bama are seeded 5-6 overall.
At the same time, a 1-seed makes the final four twice as much as 2-seed. Of course, that's usually because 1-seeds are actually better teams who...
Legitimately think this may be the year the computers break. If you have teams crushing metric precedents, yet DON'T perform well in the...
Oh, and to think even guys on the Florida beat questioned how our offense would run with him at the point. Our offensive rating at KP is basically...
I mean, it's a time-honored tradition of obsessing over a star player's faults rather than his strengths. You can always find them. But Clayton...
We are ahead of Duke in KPI, WAB, and SOR, I believe, but Duke is way ahead on most performance metrics. I’ve been sort of intrigued by the...
Really great point about the bigs. Did not know what to expect from them coming into the season, especially without Handlogten. I could see Condon...
Houston’s Strength of Record (SOR) is second nationally (ours is third). They are also ahead of us in all the analytics sites. Neither voters nor...
Another guy who deserves props is Aberdeen. His 5 pts, 1 assist during a 9-4 run when Clayton and Martin were on the bench to extend then lead to...
Who were you referring to--Clayton or Sears? Cause I was talking about Clayton.
Two turnovers, IIRC (8 in then first half, 2 in the second, but the first one came a minute in).
He was terrific. Kid has the green light to shoot. That threat is what makes him so special--and what opened up so many looks for others at the...
Condon and Clayton were grown men tonight from the jump. Best two players on the court, even granting the good game by Sears. Golden has become...
Great floor game. Made some terrific passes that didn't get converted, too. But what really got him going was attacking the rim early. He made...
This is what happens when you follow Neil on Twitter, lol
He really is a Horford sophomore clone in some senses. Smart, physical, rebounds at a high level, contests everything at the rim, is very...
FTR, I like these sites and follow them, but, for the most part, they don’t offer a lot of caveats about their projections (Miya, in particular),...
Actually surprised it is only 2.5. Bama playing on its homecourt coming off a last second loss with a chance to stake a claim to a 1-seed? Those...
It's almost hilarious how even the analytics guys underrated us. KP, Torvik, Miyakawa all predicted us to be WORSE this year than last. Of course,...
And this is the rare case where the conference tournament may actually play a role. Since Tennessee, Bama, and Florida are all somewhat...
