He’s a decent shooter from outside. Hoping his 3 point shot starts becoming more consistent. Also, maybe Yuri starts taking a few more. He’s made a decent %age with a small sample.

Quality Is Job 1 Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Well, @The Wiz and @Taj79, now that I've learned this game is considered a home game for Kansas State, rather than a neutral site game, does the line change? K-State by 3, perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almaman Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 I can't remember last injury for us that had as great an impact as this one. Maybe numero uno Gibson in our town's broken leg season will inspire team to similar heights as that world champ team reached. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wrote the original post last Sunday and when you pointed in out it was going to be in KC instead of Manhattan, KS...I didn't give it a second thought , I immediately changed (revised ) my spread to even. ...

Old guy Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Well Wiz, the Bills won today meaning they went over your spread, and apparently the Vegas betting spread had changed to 2 pts in favor of K State a couple of hours prior to the game, so we beat that as well. This is a very sweet victory for the Bills right before Christmas. All is well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wiz Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share Posted December 22, 2019 Even was a good call on this game....other than the first few minutes when the Bills got off to a great start this game was about as even as you could get. ...Score tied 14 times...lead changed hand 18 time....that is what is defined as even. Let's look at what happened . From my original post..... WWN2D2W....Stop Sneed and Diarra (their Diarra ...not ours)...hold them to less than 20 pts combined....Hold KSU to 66 pts...Dominate the boards by 9...win the TO battle....make some shots...48/36/ 56 Stop Sneed and Diarra...........Yes...17 pts combined ...excellent... Hold KSU to 66 pts..................Done...again excellent Dominate the boards by 9.......fail ...in fact we lost by 1...a good job by KSU Win the TO battle......................always one of my fav stats...Yes by 3 TOs...this was worth 6 pts....the difference in the game. Make some shots..48/36/56...Another yes....actual 51/36/60...it was so important to shoot decent...this was not a historic line ...this is what we needed to do to win ...and we did. 2 other important stats this game 2nd chance pts....we win 9-3...a difference maker.....also steals (see TOs above )..again we win 11-6 Also from my original post Bottom line...This will be a low scoring, frustrating and painful game because of missed shots and opportunities...However......I think we can gain the edge here..for the following 2 reasons....1) they have a couple of injuries...KSU is a team that can't afford to lose any players.... 2) ... the hidden stat....While these 2 evenly matched teams show an overall grade of B.....The trend line shows KSU as a C team....and the Blls as an A- team....translating into The Bills over KSU by 10. I think the key to the game was #2...the hidden stat...most forecasters...Vegas , team stats , ESPN etc just look at the overall stats plug them in to the computer and come out around even....but the trend line (which is important because we are a young and improving team) is most important the BIlls...in this case the Bills were trending up and KSU was trending down. KSU played very well tonight ...above their head on the slash line....they made an extra two 3's (44%) and an extra 5 FTs (87%)=11 extra pts....I would argue that if KSU had a "normal" night...we would have won not by 10...but would have blown them out by 14 pts. This was a great win. The game learning experiences of SH and Aub paid off tonight....a tight game in hostile territory and the BIlls didn't crack. If Thatch is able to return (which it looks like he will soon ) plus we continue to grow and improve....things could look bright in the coming weeks. billikenbill, dennis_w and Zink like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Nice explanation Wiz. Glad you have incorporated a trend style indicator in your stats analysis. I think it is a valid tool for the purpose you use it. This kind of tool/indicator is not used by other analysts and forecasters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
