#12 Kentucky at #8 Tennessee -9.5


Trap game with Tennessee looking ahead to Florida on Saturday. (jk)

South Carolina at Georgia -7.5


7 game losing streak vs 4 game losing streak.

Oklahoma at #13 Texas A&M -7.5


Would be 3 wins in a row if OU can pull the upset.

FT Rate (Defense)

Trackable stat on Torvik. How many FTs you give up per 100 defensive possessions.


So what would the difference be between this and number of fouls per 100 defensive possessions? Are there teams that fouls more when someone is shooting than when they are not? I guess this also takes in consideration of missed vs made 1 and 1's.

It just seems like a lot of work when you can just calculate how many fouls a team commits per possession. I think that is probably the best way to determine if a team fouls a lot.

Aggie has looked equal parts contender and fraud in every game this season

So has Florida. That is just what you are gonna get with conference play this year. It is hard for the players to play at peak level every game, all season.

Believe it or not Torvik doesn’t track fouls per 100 possessions lol. At least I can’t find it.

It’s imperfect but it’s a reasonable enough proxy.

I had no idea his background no wonder he sucks. From a local reporter:


Carson Field
@CarsonDField

Long before arriving in Norman, Porter Moser learned the art of saying “Gig’em.”

Moser, an assistant at Texas A&M in the 90s, met his wife in College Station and remembers his time there fondly.

Tonight he returns to A&M to battle the Aggies.

I was trying to give 10rc fans a compliment, but they are soured on basketball right now. When they beat Kentucky and Florida this week they will come back.

ISU losing last night helped that a lot.

There’s a few coming. Eventually one of the Missouris of the world will hit their free throws, or a Zakai Zeigler three like the other night might fall.

Can only win against the odds for so long. Just hope we “get it out of our system” before the post-season, as it were lol.

All that tells me is that Tennessee is getting favorable officiating because they foul on almost every defensive possession and just dare referees to call it.

Also what in the frick is free throw defense? How do you defend a free throw? They call a tech or lane violation for that.
