Old guy Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Team Rankings just published their spread, it is 4.6 in SLU's favor. They give us a single star of confidence. This means what we already know, both teams appear to be even and anyone can win the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowboy II Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 20 minutes ago, billikenbill said: Had the day off so took some time to watch the last 12:55 of Ill. St. SLU had 23 possessions during that time, 22 actual possessions, and a quirky one where Parker’s flagrant 1 foul was considered a possession. Of those 22 real possessions, the Bills had 8 end in a shot attempt (went 0-9 as Gibby had a putback blocked,) 8 ended in a turnover, and 6 ended in FTs. Most of the shots missed were good shots which were falling earlier but missing late. One or two of the turnovers came as a result of risky passes, but the rest were just things that can happen at any point in a game. Guys were trying to make plays but for one reason or another couldn’t pull them off. IMHO, it didn’t look to me like there was any change in tempo, just the law of averages working out to where you have one turnover in 52 possessions, but 8 in 22, while shooting 51% on 43 attempts for 27 mins. and 0% on 9 attempts for 13 mins. As far as the weave goes, it seems to me the time spent on that has been cut at least in half, and the two or three passes involved are simply to establish each player’s position in the halfcourt set to initiate screens, cuts, passing lanes, and so on. We need to get our bigs improving quickly and avoid injuries. So far, it’s been a fun team to watch despite the late fades. -thanks for this -CFord and staff watched the same and while there are likely many others, I see three of the possible conclusions being: 1-like you said law of averages and don't change anything 2-this was at the end of the game after we have been applying full court pressure which will lead to removing or reducing the press and no change to the rotation of players 3-this was at the end of the game after we have been applying full court pressure which will lead to continuing to press and a redistribution of minutes/increase in the rotation of players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My money is on the Wiz's machine. I would say if you can take The Bills and get 11 points go for it. Every model I have seen has the Bills winning in a close one. Seems the WY computer may be a few Megs short of a Gig. My computer would eat that Laramie computer for lunch.
