[BostonCard]

2/19 from 3 pts; 6/12 from the free throw line, and actually outshot by OSU 40.4% to 38.8%... and yet we win because:

only 6 turnovers (to 11 by OSU)
17 offensive rebounds (to 8 by OSU) [a better metric is offensive rebound percentage; we rebounded 38% of our missed shots, they rebounded 23% of theirs]
7 blocks versus (2 for OSU)
9 steals (including the game sealing one) to 4 by OSU

Add it all up, and despite a lower field goal percentage, we attempted 10 more shots than they did, so we made 3 more shots than they did.
