Our D focuses on reducing big man usage and not defending big men. It's easy to look at a stat line and think AU gets eaten alive by big men.

For example @UGA Maten went 20pts 8-8 2FG + 4 FT. What you don't see is that it was his lowest usage rate in SEC play as Maten poss% was 17% vs season avg 28.5%. This is crippling for a team that relies on Maten and was one of UGA 10 worst O efficiency games despite a ridiculous efficiency game from. Their star



The issue w a team like TAMU is Robert Williams is one of the only bigs who can regularly beat Spencer/McLemore on jump ball lobs + they shot lights out to start the game then rebounded when that stopped
