Just came off a top 15 road win without Zion playing aT all in the second haLf. They were at home and were a 17pt favorite. To be honest if you told Vegas before the game Started that joneS and reddish would be out, the line probably goes to 10, still a heavy favorite. OConnell, while costing theM on defense, was their best shooter all night At the end of the day the analytics are the analytics. Our NET, BPI, KenPom, etc will all count the Duke win as everyone playing; same wIth the UConn loss. If it’s down to us and someine else for the final NCAA spot will the committee say “yeah they beat duke but cam reddish didn’t play so I don’t think they should be in”. No, of course not. This is the best win in CBB so far this year [/QUOTE]
