    1/28 hoop talk

    realized there hasn't been the daily thread made yet so here we go. Sizable card tonight with Duke at Notre Dame as the highlight game

    public all over duke....

    Notre dame looks good.
    This is their super bowl. Their guard play is tremendous...but can they deal with the beast jahlil?

    They got no size to compete down low. Duke plays well in big road games. But may be a let down after getting coach K his 1000th win. Both teams shoot well - maybe over is a good bet?

    Will be a fun game to watch but I got my eye on two other games to bet.

    Notre dame for me.

    whats up with the KU line. They're only favored by 5? Looks like a TCU line. I want to take TCU but they blow.

    okafor can get his and duke could lose. the only play is notre dame ml. its not like duke can 'afford' a loss, but public backing + game after 1000th televised hard fought win + virginia saturday on road = value on notre dame. notre dame will definitely be involved somehow for me.

    Washington probably beats Stanford. Love the angle of backing a team after they dismiss a player, even if it was their best player. Revenge game as well.

    Zona probably waxes Oregon.

    offensively okafor is getting his, gotta get past that.

    in conference, zach auguste ranks one spot better than okafor for off rebound %, pat connaughton ranks one better than okafor for def rebound %. may be not 'size' to compete per se, but notre dame gets theirs.

    edit: stats per kenpom. just found out about the 'expanded player stat' page, and i'm in heaven.

    indiana catching points is attractive, st johns 1h is attractive, and oklahoma should have a field day with texas tech - i doubt lightning strikes twice and we get oklahoma reeling at home, not taking texas tech for granted. i foresee an as$whooping there.

    Someone school me on Purdue. I've barely seen them play at all, and when I did they looked like shit against Maryland. I'm always weary of the ranked road team catching pts.

    every big 12 tcu home game has been lined similarly and they have yet to cover. wouldnt read much into their lines, i guess their pathetic out of conf schedule helped them post numbers that created value against..

    lsu-4.5 a play for me. scary has proven to be the trash i thought they were. team is a total train wreck and while i worry they might be able to get some easy baskets off turnovers those will prob be their only baskets as they are gonna continue having a miserable time scoring in the half court..

    they cant shoot, they have the worst effective fg% in the sec..29% from behind the arc, 41% on 2 point attempts, only 93 points per 100 possessions. all the while they been bad defensively as well ranking in the bottom few in sec in pretty much every defensive category..

    is there a place to see conference leaders in off/def points in paint per game? when tennessee/ark tipped off last night the announcers mentioned tenn was best at points in paint per game, and i didnt know where to find that.

    Very true.

    KU & TCU have similar numbers statistically, but KU faced the #1 TOUGHEST non-conf SOS while TCU faced the #1 EASIEST non-conf SOS.
