[QUOTE="MDchicago, post: 1966897, member: 10594"] Agree, we've lost the KenPom TO% (which regression says accounts for ~25% of winning, the second largest of the four factors behind shooting) relative to our opponent in 4 of 5 games (5 of 6 if you include the Kansas exhibition), so is an area of concern. Even Eastern IL, Southern and Valpo have had better ball security than us while losing badly. Can get away with it against lower level opponents, but if not remedied will shrink our margin of error/ability to survive off shooting nights and may end up costing us some games against high D1 opponents. On the positive side, offensive rebounding was great tonight and we have bested our opponents in 5/5 games so far (6 of 6 if you include the Kansas exhibition). [/QUOTE]
