NKU was 143rd in the country in tempo last year; 159th in 2018. That is a lot faster than Mick (about 4 extra possessions a game) but still a lot slower than, say, Duke. Interestingly, only 5 of the top 20 fastest teams in the country were top 100 teams overall last year; in 2018 it was 3/20. 8 & 9 (2019/2018, respectively) of the slowest 20 teams were top 100. |

Let's just hope Wesson doesn't destroy us inside. He is clever and really strong, and we have 3 centers who are huge question marks.

if you're finishing that high in overall tempo, you probably don't play much defense. |

I don't know how much stock you can put in to this but Warren Nolen predicts a UC victory. 64-62 and 66-60.
http://warrennolan.com/basketball/2020/predict-games Massey Ratings predict a 2 point O$U victory 66-64. It also gives UC a 47% chance to win. https://www.masseyratings.com/game.php?gid=931564573 Last edited by TheShoeFits; 11-06-2019 at 02:53 PM. |

Our guys have been used to getting breaks on offense when we walk it up. 10 seconds wasted. When we got to the last 10 seconds many of the players just had to sit back and watch Jarron. They will all be involved this year and most of them on both sides of the ball. I don't see any of them getting much more than 30-32.5 minutes on a nightly basis. Maybe Jarron and Scott have the best chance. I could see McNeal, Williams, and JC2 in the 23-28 range. After that it's going to depend on who's actually ready to play at this level. I don't see anyone else topping 15 mpg. |

OSU's a 5 to 6 point favorite with most Vegas lines.
