Message: [QUOTE="moqui, post: 948843, member: 214"] there are two ways to get low scores: a slow pace, or a rock fight. A rock fight is when both teams struggle to execute offensively. A slow pace, however, can have very efficient offensive sets and the total points are low because of the low number of possessions. Syracuse, for example, plays at one of the slowest paces in the nation - 345th out of 351 schools, but we have the 8th most efficient offense, getting 118.5 points per 100 possessions (the D1 average is about 104). Virginia also plays at a slow pace - 341st. Their offense is efficient as well, 111.4 points per 100, ranked 53rd. I would expect our matchup to be low scoring, but not a rock fight. [/QUOTE]
