Keys to beating Notre Dame

[nyg]

The size drop off might not be drastic between Jae/Jamil and Jamail/Juan....but the production level is.  I would love for Juan and Jamail to step up and standout this game...however don't want to be in a position where they're needed to.

Maybe Juan will pull a Mayo @ Wisco performance today.

Maybe Juan, but not maybe Jones.  I checked the stats and he has not scored a single point in the last 14 games.  Yes, he did have some DNPs, but has not made a shot or free throw.  That is a long stretch........

MU will need some bench points and Mayo is due.  Lets hope they get some contribution in the point aspect of the bench today.

1. Score more points than Notre Dame does.

Dr. Destiny, did you know that it is statistically proven that those who win the tip, win the game about 50% of the time?

Score more points than ND.

30 what? Minutes played? I would bet pretty much anything that no one scores 30 this game. I'd be mildly surprised if the top scorer got over 20. ND plays a very slow pace, like Wisconsin. This game won't be played in the 70s, more likely it'll be in the 50s.

the golden domers avg. 67.4 ppg and allow about 62.  i see the o/u being around 130 and nd starting out as one point dogs.  the joyce center is a tough place to play.  if we can keep our composure and keep the crowd out of it, never mind just win baby!!

You can use statistics to prove anything.  40% of people know that.

Their ppg average scored and allowed are inflated by their early season games. In their past 6 games, none of them have featured more than 125 points combined. The average total points over those games is 112, with ND averaging 57.2 ppg and their opponents averaging 54.8 ppg.

If you're betting, take the under. But back to the point...

30 what? You must be smoking something serious if you think Mayo is going to go for 30 points in this game. Considering that neither DJO nor Jae have EVER scored 30 in a game, I hardly think DJO's backup will do it in what will be a low scoring affair.

Mildly surprised yet?
