RE: WBB: The top remaining teams, by the key numbers - Nan3cy - 03-25-2021

Is Strength of Schedule a meaningful statistic this year, given the small number of out-of-conference games? (And if so, where does Stanford rank in comparison with these other teams?)

For all the talk about our turnovers...

Among the top teams at this point, schedules seem to have approached an evening out.

Baylor, Marylland, Stanford and U Conn each have played teams that in aggregate have won 57.5 percent of their games.
I'd add strength of schedule bonus points to South Carollna, for whom that number is 67.2 percent.


RE: WBB: The top remaining teams, by the key numbers - BostonCard - 03-25-2021

It is also useful to look at the record against other top-25 teams.  It suggests that South Carolina (12) had the most tough match-ups, but Maryland (8) and Stanford (7) are not far behind.  UConn, with 3 top-25 match ups seems to have been the least tested.

Louisville is not included in any of those categories.  :•)

A fun article about another kind of basketball number. Several Stanford players make the list or at least get honorable mention.

Charlie Creme reseeded the Sweet 16.

I'm predicting that he is underestimating Oregon.

Brink has a tough challenge to be the best that has worn #22, with Swoopes at the top.  However, Swoops only played 2 years in Div 1.  Why did we give Brink a guard's number?  We should have given her #54.

all the betting lines are as you might expect...except oregon is favored by 1 over louisville!

vegas agrees with akiddoc.

I find it interesting that the largest spread is for Stanford, even more than for Maryland

Jenna Brown has dibs on keeping 54 when she comes back from injury in the fall.

Changing to the Elite 8.  Several of these can not be calculated from what the schools post.
I updated the ones I could by my calculations.  When the difference was more than 0.2, I left the struck out old value.

What is "turnover percentage"?

Turnover percentage is the percentage of possessions on which a team turned over the ball.

My calculations are based on the entire season.
I erred in my initial report on UConn's effective field goal percentage differential.
I have them at 18.9 (57.2  vs. 38.3), Stanford now at 16.1.
