It Is Ninth-Tenths of the Law, After All
From Ken Pomeroy's indispensible college basketball stats, the raw average possessions for the ACC teams to date:
North Carolina 78.9 Virginia 75.7 Maryland 75.7 Georgia Tech 74.9 Wake Forest 73.6 Miami FL 69.6 Boston College 69.5 Clemson 68.5 North Carolina St. 68.1 Florida St. 67.7 Virginia Tech 67.7 Duke 66.5
Both strategies seem to be getting points, but everything looks efficient in December. Duke is throwing up an impressive defense, while N.C. State and Georgia Tech are compensating for poor play on that end with lots of points:
