(We are averaging 132 a game in regulation.) [I]Breakdown by Quarters[/I] (Points scored between the beginning of the game and the 10 minute mark of the first half, then halftime, then the 10 minute mark of the second half, the end of regulation and then overtime of there was one) 11-9, 14-16, 18-16, 19-14 [B]Fouls[/B] (Two point shots and free throws attempted per times fouled.)

[B]Comments:[/B] - We went for 39 points in unsettled situations vs. NC State to 14 in this game. - We out-rebounded Miami 37-29 but their 12 offensive rebounds mattered. I counted three treys after the Canes rebounded their own misses. - We attempted only 9 free throws. We had just 6 attempts vs. Notre Dame and had 11 and 9 in the Virginia games. But 6 of our 9 FTA came in the last 40 seconds of the game. We’ve averaged 22 FTA per game. We are running the same offense that got to the line 39 times vs. Wake Forest. - On the other hand, do we really want the refs calling a lot of fouls? - For three straight games we’ve had 39 fast break opportunities, (defensive rebounds + blocks + steals) and have scored exactly 4 points off of them each time. - For the season, going into this game, we averaged 2.07 two point shot attempts per time fouled and 1.24 free throws per foul. The opposition was 2.01/1.06. IN this game we were 2.77/0.69 and they were 2.00/0.86. Miami drew fouls at a normal rate but was less likely to go to the line. We drew fouls at a much lesser rate and went to the foul line far fewer times. Fewer calls were being made and fewer of them were shooting fouls. [/QUOTE]
