Nova just exploded all over the NCAA tournament.
No one threatened them.

The year they hit a super deep 3 to beat UNC or the other national championship year? Can't keep them straight, just know they had 2 in 3 years.

#2. They won those 6 games by 26, 23, 12, 12, 16, and 17.

7th AdjO, 1st AdjD.
Oh boy.

And it's not just the raw rankings (which are starting to edge close to 2008 levels, as our offense improves). It's that the defense is outrageously ahead of the rest of the field.

I really don't know what you do against us, besides chuck 3s, go straight into Doke and hope for a couple early whistles, or both.

You really just have to hope you turn us over 15+ times.

Which KU has proven to do in their losses/close games.

I'm throwing that Duke turnovercity game totally out the window.
That wasn't anything like we are now ( or really we were just a few games later ).

You can pretty much throw everything out pre January imo.

Dayton, duke, etc. We're totally different right now.

The turnovers are way less of an issue for several reasons: 1. no more 2 big lineups. 2. emergence of Garrett playing on the ball. 3. Braun playing, who has a low TO% 4. Braun and Moss just playing better. 5. Udoka's all-around improvement from early season and the fact that we don't really throw him the ball on the block in the offense we've been running lately.

i said as much after the duke loss

if this team keeps the turnovers below 15, nobody will beat them

UVA @ VaTech was 26 to 11 at halftime.

7 on adjusted O
2 on adjusted D

if Moss’ stroke hadn’t dropped off recently we’d be sitting better with offensive metrics

I didn't pay for kenpom this year but I imagine we have the 1st or 2nd strongest conference.
I mean, WVU is still top 10!
