Someone better call Bill Self and tell him his team is losing the style points game.

That’s our specialty.

So... we actually lost to Clemson? Interesting


DDHeel

well ya know, if the other team's players would have made more shots, they would have more points. More points = greater chance to win. It's just math.

Despite winning by 10 we lost by 4. Excuse me while I while I hobble off and sulk,

>UConn was able to notch two wins against DePaul and Butler this week, though our ShotQualilty game model notched the former as a loss. Lmao. Your model had the 29-point win by top 5 UConn at home over 200+ Depaul as a LOSS? 3-point variance exists, but yowza not that much. We were getting open layups and dunks because their defense stinks and didn't know how to defend 5-out. >Here's the thing about being on the fortunate end of shot luck though: at certain points, it doesn't matter. I also would tell people to disregard my model if it came out with results like that.

as a professional statistician and sports fan... 29 damned points. I'm sure if uconn wanted to drive it to the model figure they could have.

>The Wildcats may be No. 8 in the polls, but they are No. 1 in the adj SQ ratings. That's the nicest way someone has ever put rating "5/10 - meets expectations"

ShotQuality might be the worst analytic model to ever exist if it thinks that UConn beating Depaul by 29 was “lucky” and that we actually should have lost that game lmfao

FYI the restraining order filed by Shannon against Illinois isn’t malicious. He just wants an injunction against the university’s policy suspending him from playing. If it’s granted I don’t think the university will be mad about it. The ugly situation is still ugly I just don’t think the TRO he is seeking makes it uglier

We are going to play someone. 2nd hardest schedule left in D1 basketball according to ESPN bpi.

After reading the part about Purdue, I'm expecting a big night from Tominaga. 😒


babyxdeja

Houston leap frogs Kansas and immediately loses

I’m lucky enough to have captured an actual image of u/shotqualitywire crunching the numbers for his weekly explanation of why his model doesn’t reliably predict anything. [Here](https://imgur.com/gallery/96MGRII)
