I was just curious what these 2 teams did away from home against conf foes. So both BSU and LaSalle played 8 road gms and 1 conf tourney game. Here is what they did=

LaSalle = 45.7% eFG and 0.99 ppp
Opp. = 51.5% eFG and 1.04 ppp

Boise = 47.1% eFG and 0.96 ppp
Opp = 52.5% eFG and 1.06 ppp

I do like that both of these teams were under 1.00 away from their home court

Comparative Scores!

LaSalle beat Delaware by 7, We beat Delaware by 3
LaSalle beat George Washington by 9 (road), 14 (home), We beat GW by 3

Boise State beat Texas Southern by 18, We be Texas Southern by 9

Pfft this was before we even had an offense.

The season really breaks down to 2 segments; BS and AS (before and after Shane became a starter) .

Weber was clear from the start that he was going to play small; but his original small 4 was Nino.

Nino started the first 9 games, including the losses to Michigan and Gonzaga. The Cats shot better than 33% from 3 in only 2 of those games. Nino did start two more games, but those were the 2 when Angel and Tay were both hurt and didn't play and Shane started also. Texas Southern was Shane's first start, and the Cats only shot 2-13 from 3. But the game after that was Florida and since then the Cats offense became the strong shooting team it is today, largely because Shane added that additional shooting threat that Nino didn't provide.

And in our 4 games at Sprint Center, we played 3 good tourney teams who are a 1,3, 5 seed and then also Texas

Ksu = 45.7 eFG% and 1.04 ppp
Opp. = 43.4 eFG% and 0.97 ppp

We played pretty good defense against Fla, Tex, Osu and 1st half vs KU
The 1st half vs KU we were just awful on offense. The other 7 halves at Sprint = 1.11 ppp and 48.4 eFG

So after a successful season, Doug is a little butthurt, right?

I may have misspoke. Said they are "more athletic." I'll see if I can find the podcast from Petro today.

That is just confirmation that Doug would have Franked Will.

Nothing to see here.

One of our starting guards is Will Spradling, so...

Yeah, he said more athletic. He didn't seem to think we'd have a problem with either and thought we'd have a great shot against Wiscy.

Oh man.... WildWildCats v Wisky is basically Doug vs ESPN at this point.

We really need to do this for Doug.

I think Doug would have been the Will whisperer.

Nah, I'm going to go with "would have Frank'd him."

These stats really ease my angst. Not an earth shattering post, but very thankful we're in KC. A noon tip in some half-filled arena in San Jose just seems like a prime target for an upset.

Yes, playing in KC is a big help for this game and Wiscy. IMO.

The t-shirt phoggies will be cheering for Wisky.

Great stuff _FAN. As always your work here is truly appreciated.

Personally, I'd rather see LaSalle, but I think Boise will win. Lasalle don't rebound particularly well, and I'm not as worried about them getting hot from 3 and making the game closer than it should be. Either way we are much better than both of these teams and it should be a cakewalk.
