Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 2950527, member: 289"] Team Offensive Possession Efficiency (Possessions: Field goals attempted - offensive rebounds + turnovers + 47.5% of free throws attempted. Efficiency is total points divided by possessions) Notre Dame 72/66 = 1.090 vs. 62/67 = 0.925 133 possessions +165 Clemson 61/67 = 0.910 vs. 53/67 = 0.791 134 possessions +119 Georgia Tech 59/70 = 0.843 vs. 73/70 = 1.043 140 possessions - 200 Duke 95/91 = 1.044 vs. 91/91 = 1.000 182 possessions (172 in regulation) +44 Pittsburgh 74/70 = 1.057 vs. 63/71 = 0.887 141 possessions +170 Miami 73/59 = 1.237 vs. 53/60 = 0.883 119 possessions +354 Virginia Tech 56/65 = 0.862 vs. 78/64 = 1.219 129 possessions -357 Boston College 77/62 = 1.242 vs. 71/62 = 1.145 124 possessions +97 Pittsburgh 65/60 = 1.083 vs. 56/60 = 0.933 120 possessions +150 Florida State 62/72 = 0.861 vs. 80/71 = 1.127 143 possessions -266 Boston College 67/66 = 1.015 vs. 56/67 = 0.836 133 possessions +179 North Carolina State 58/72 = 0.806 vs. 73/73 = 1.000 145 possessions -194 Louisville 69/67 =1.030 vs. 49/66 = 0.742 133 possessions +288 Duke 65/67 = 0.970 vs. 75/66 = 1.136 133 possessions -166 North Carolina 85/72 = 1.181 vs. 93/71 = 1.310 143 possessions -129 Wake Forest 79/69 = 1.145 vs. 54/68 = 0.794 137 possessions +351 Virginia 53/59 = 0.898 vs. 79/60 = 1.317 119 possessions -419 Clemson 55/68 = 0.808 vs. 67/67 = 1.000 115 possessions -192 Comments: We were 1225/1222 = 1.002 vs. 1288/1221 = 1.055. We were 10-0 when we won this stat and 0-8 when we lost. Over the years I’ve had one game where the team that lost the game won this stat, (due to rounding). We wound up behind on the season because we lost games by more than we won them. Last year we were actually closer, 1.018-1.019. We won this stat 8 times. We were 8-0 when we won it and 0-10 when we lost it. Our conference games this year averaged 135 possessions. Last year it was 125, so the pace of games was faster. Adjusted Possession Efficiency Using just FGA + (.475 x FTA) to treat offensive rebounds as extra possessions and turnovers as lost possessions. Notre Dame 72/70 = 1.029 vs. 62/66 = 0.939 +90 Clemson 61/59 = 1.034 vs. 53/61 = 0.869 +165 Georgia Tech 59/67 = 0.881 vs. 73/55 = 1.327 -446 Duke 95/89 = 1.067 vs. 91/93 = 0.978 +89 Pittsburgh 74/65 = 1.138 vs. 63/72 = 0.875 +265 Miami 73/57 = 1.281 vs. 53/62 = 0.855 +426 Virginia Tech 56/62 = 0.903 vs. 78/58 = 1.345 -442 Boston College 77/59 = 1.305 vs. 71/56 = 1.268 +37 Pittsburgh 65/61 = 1.066 vs. 56/67 = 0.836 +230 Florida State 62/62 = 1.000 vs. 80/61 = 1.311 -311 Boston College 67/63 = 1.063 vs. 56/63 = 0.889 +174 North Carolina State 58/70 = 0.829 vs. 73/60 = 1.217 -388 Louisville 69/65 =1.062 vs. 49/60 = 0.817 +245 Duke 65/79 = 0.823 vs. 75/67 = 1.119 -296 North Carolina 85/71 = 1.197 vs. 93/80 = 1.163 +34 Wake Forest 79/66 = 1.197 vs. 54/60 = 0.900 +297 Virginia 53/62 = 0.855 vs. 79/56 = 1.411 -556 Clemson 55/56 = 0.982 vs. 67/70 = 0.957 +25 Comments: We were 1225/1183 = 1.036 vs. 1288/1167 = 1.104. We won this stat 12 times and were 10-2 in those games. We lost it 6 times and were 0-6 in those games. I did not keep track of this stat last year so went back to figure it out. We were 1.039 vs. 1.028. We won this stat 12 times. We were 7-5 in those games and 1-5 when we lost. I like this stat better, simply because the winning team doesn’t automatically win it. Team Shooting Efficiency (Points minus missed field goals and free throws) Notre Dame 72 – 40 – 1 = 31 vs. 62 – 38 – 6 = 18 +13 Clemson 61 – 28 - -8 = 25 vs. 53 – 34 – 7 = 12 +13 Georgia Tech 59 – 39 – 5 = 15 vs. 73 – 17 – 10 = 46 -31 Duke 95 – 45 – 5 = 45 vs. 91 – 49 – 7 = 31 +14 Pittsburgh 74 – 29 – 11 = 34 vs. 63 – 43 – 6 = 14 +20 Miami 73 – 27 – 1 = 45 vs. 53 – 39 – 1 = 13 +32 Virginia Tech 56 – 35 – 7 = 14 vs. 78 – 23 – 6 = 49 -35 Boston College 77 – 23 – 7 = 47 vs. 71 – 24 – 3 = 44 +3 Pittsburgh 65 – 23 – 7 = 35 vs. 56 – 24 – 3 = 29 +6 Florida State 62 – 30 – 9 = 23 vs. 80 – 25 – 3 = 52 -29 Boston College 67 – 31 – 4 = 32 vs. 56 – 36 – 6 = 14 +18 North Carolina State 58 – 39 – 11 = 8 vs. 73 - 29 – 4 = 40 -32 Louisville 69 – 35 – 2 = 32 vs. 49 – 40 – 3 = 6 +26 Duke 65 – 46 – 7 = 12 vs. 75 – 33 – 2 = 40 -28 North Carolina 85 – 31 – 10 = 44 vs. 93 – 37 – 3 = 53 -13 Wake Forest 79 – 26 – 5 = 48 vs. 54 – 35 – 4 = 15 +33 Virginia 53 – 38 – 4 = 11 vs. 79 – 23 – 6 = 50 -39 Clemson 55 – 30 – 4 = 21 vs. 67 – 37 – 6 = 24 -3 Comments: We had 522 points when the damage of missed shots is subtracted vs. 550. We won this stat 10 times and were 10-0 when we won it and 0-8 when we lost it.. I didn’t keep tract of this last year so I went back and figured it out. We won this stat 10 times and were 6-4 when we won it, 2-6 when we lost it. 10-0 vs. 0-8. That seems significant (Points scored divided by potential points scored if every shot was good) Notre Dame 72/170 = 42.4% vs. 62/166 = 37.3% +51 Clemson 61/145 = 42.1% vs. 53/143 = 37.1% +50 Georgia Tech 59/168 = 35.1% vs. 73/123 = 59.3% -242 Duke 95/204 = 46.7% vs. 91/230 = 39.6% +71 Pittsburgh 74/157 = 47.1% vs. 63/179 = 35.2% +119 Miami 73/144 = 50.7% vs. 53/153 = 34.6% +161 Virginia Tech 56/152 = 36.8% vs. 78/146 = 53.4% -166 Boston College 77/145 = 53.1% vs. 71/135 = 52.6% +5 Pittsburgh 65/145 = 44.8% vs. 56/158 = 35.4% +94 Florida State 62/146 = 42.5% vs. 80/144 = 55.6% -131 Boston College 67/145 = 46.2% vs. 56/150 = 37.3% +89 North Carolina State 58/167 = 34.7% vs. 73/140 = 52.1% -174 Louisville 69/160 = 43.1% vs. 49/154 = 31.8% +113 Duke 65/182 = 35.7% vs. 75/163 = 46.0% -103 North Carolina 85/174 = 48.9% vs. 93/190 = 48.9% 0 Wake Forest 79/141 = 56.0% vs. 54/143 = 37.8% +182 Virginia 53/150 = 35.3% vs. 79/138 = 57.2% -219 Clemson 55/132 = 41.7% vs. 67/166 = 40.4% +13 Comments: We are 1225/2682 = 45.7% vs. 1288/2821 = 45.7%. We won this stat 11 times and were 10-1 when we won it and 0-7 when we lost it. This is another stat I didn’t keep track of last year so I had to go back and figure it out. We were 44.6% to 43.1%. We won this stat in 12 games and were 7-5 when we won it and 1-5 when we lost it. We’ve shot the ball exactly as well as the other team this year and it’s been almost an iron-clad determinant of victory or defeat. That was not the case last year. I think the difference is rebounding. We could recover from missed shots better last year.

The games were bit faster paced and higher scoring this year. [/QUOTE]
