Is it possible to score 100 points in a game today?

It seems all college games are ugly these days. Scores closer to 50 are more common than 80s or 90s. The most successful teams focus on defense first. Has the game changed? Has the way the game is called changed? Is it even possible for a team to score 100 today?

Teams are more equal today.

Yes. I've seen it in person once this year. On two other occasions, I saw 91 points scored.... and those 91 that would have certainly become 100 if the coach didn't put five walkons on the floor for the last few minutes of each game.

It helps playing against top programs like Longwood.

Ask the guys at Grinnell, shock.

In order to do it, you pretty much have to have two teams that don't play D, or one team that's D is just so bad they can't do anything and they don't slow it down and try to grind on O.

Lots of run and gun and no D. That is why we rarely see 100 points scored in the MVC. Most teams, even the crappy ones play good D.

Grinnell plays absolutely no defense and jacks up 60 3's a game. They are an anomally in college basketball. No one else even thinks about doing what they do up there in Iowa.
