vs Top 150 opponents


Jax St is the 150 (146 on KenPom)

Yale is 147 -- AU 86 Yale 64 (And Yale's Adj O and D numbers are multiples better than Jax)

Neb is 138 -- AU 99 Neb 68 (N site) (Neb's numbers are again much much better than Jax)

AU wins big and gets the shooting mojo back. Profit

Yea, those games happened the same 2 days Alabama beat Gonzaga (12/4) and Houston (12/11).

If this is AU playing Miami (KenPom 68), I think the analysis holds. Not so much at the fringes.

Agree - it's hard to do with low-majors because they just don't have a very big sample size once you start filtering down.

Vermont has played a grand total of 3 games vs Top 100 teams - all of them over 3 months ago. It's just nearly impossible to figure out how much of what they've done more recently against bad small majors with few athletes translates against a solid, athletic team like Arkansas.
