    What I think is so hilarious is that they keep saying the AAC sucks...but if you have a losing record in a league that sucks, what does that make you? But next year they are going to kill it in the Big East.

    They even make the comment, congratulation you beat a team that lost to USF by 15.

    Scoreboard.

    Only losses were KembaGate in 2011 and last year there.

    Just jumping in today and apologies if this has been posted before; a buddy sent me a Kenpom analysis that concludes defending and not fouling when up 3 late is statistically a superior strategy. It is from 2013. Is that view no longer in the majority? Again, sorry if this had previously been debunked.

    I’ve had some time to think about the foul or not question. While I still agree we should’ve fouled, the most probable worst case scenario if we don’t is we go to OT. If we do foul, they go to the line with say five seconds left (probably about when we would’ve fouled).
    They make both.
    We still have to get the ball inbounds and with refs letting them get away with all types of contact it is a realistic scenario they steal the ball and score, it would actually be possible to lose the game. The other bad play that could transpire is the make the first free throw, miss the second and the ball gets batted out for a three attempt, another way to lose. We could get pushed out of position to get the rebound (no call) and then we allow a tip out, not probable but still a way to lose.

    Still the high pct play to foul but given the game circumstances, our coach knowing our team better than anyone on this board, and the amount of time we would probably still have on the clock when we fouled, it is not as cut and dried as it sounds.

    Agreed that both approaches can succeed or fail on any given day.

    I’m sure there is an answer to which approach has been successful more often over time.
    And I would wager that there is little statistical difference between the two.

    That’s some funny reactions from the UCONN fans, they sound ku-ish. They really think there stepping up in competition? Don’t really see it in today’s basketball environment.

    Sure. Just like the probability of going to OT or losing in regulation after fouling is also not zero.

    I believe it would not have mattered if Dexter hadn’t slipped on the hockey rink. The pass probably never even goes to that player and even if it does he would have been more closely guarded.
    FIFY. And, agreed.
