Message: [QUOTE="auror, post: 4206136, member: 1329"] When I stumble upon an upset in college basketball, the first thing I look at it is: 1) Did they shoot less than 35% from 3? And if not... 2) Did the other team shoot better than 40% from 3? And if not... 3) Did they turn it over a bunch or give up a bunch of offensive rebounds? 4) Did they commit a zillion fouls? Those are the "Four Factors" for a reason, but, yes, shooting is important. The most important thing. We lost the SHU game because they also shot well so that factor was "tied" in a sense and then they turned us over a bunch. Same with the Nova game, they shot over 50% from 3, so even though we shot 40% we were at a deficit (and then they got to the line a bunch). [/QUOTE]
