Message: [QUOTE="moqui, post: 2669756, member: 214"] average offensive possession length last year was 19.6 seconds - 341st out of 351 schools! easily the most deliberate offense in the 9 years kenpom has been keeping the stat. su can & almost certainly will play much faster on the offensive end ... but the defense has evolved to such a point that our overall pace will still be on the slow side because we force teams to grind it out when they have the ball (and we give up a lot of offensive rebounds). su has been ranked near the bottom (or top, depending on how you look at it) in defensive possession length over that same period - twice leading the nation. in fact, last year at 17.8 seconds per defensive possession was the fastest the orange have allowed opponents to play since records have been kept [/QUOTE]
