Indiana: their stats vs Iowa and Princeton

Ummm, not wanting to take a victory lap; BUT....

I pretty much nailed it with my "UCONN by 23" prediction above.

Actually there were at least 25 prognosticators that were much better than your prediction.

I prefer to take credit for my prediction (see post #24 in this thread) that UConn would dominate the boards, including the offensive boards. Between O-bounds and an advantage of 6 in the turnover margin, UConn got nearly 20 more FGA's than Indiana, which makes up for a slightly lower FG%. But the FG% wasn't bad either -- 46%.

@JoePgh - first of all, I like your thoughtful posts and I mostly find myself nodding in agreement.

For this particular game, the Indiana stats that we (you and I) refer to would point to a quite comfortable win for UCONN. Which is what happened. I predicted a 23 point win for UCONN and soooo I took a "tongue in cheek" victory lap. While nobody actually castigated me, there were mumbles and grumbles that I was talking nonsense, ever rubbish.

I look at it as all good fun... Grrrrr
