Down 17 to the second worse team in the conference who is missing three players including one of their top guys... pretty poor game. 

 

Someone should look into our three point differential these season because I bet it's huge. Our guys don't seem comfortable at all from deep.

Well, gang... You hate to see it happen, but no winning streak can go on forever. 

If we had to see it end, at least it was to the 13th best team in the league, by almost 20 points. No shame in that. No more than anything else, I mean.

Ask and you shall receive:

Season NT 3-FG NT 3-FG Att Opponent 3-FG Opponent 3-FG Att Margin 3-FG Margin 3-FG Att
2014-2015 146 484 230 686 -84 -202
2015-2016 186 567 232 635 -46 -68
2016-2017* 136 436 177 521 -41 -85

* I haven't entered in the game against FIU yet.

I don't have any games entered into my database for 2012 and 2013 so I can't tell you right away what the margin is for the entire Benford era. Under Benford the team has never done well at defending the 3.

Thanks!

 

We can't defend the three or shoot the three. That right there along with missing free throws will cost us every game. It just boggles my mind that they have adjusted to play out beyond the arc on both ends of the floor.

Looking for positives in as bad a loss as NT could have.   

Brice had his best minutes in the year, in the first half.  Forgotten about in the second.

Woolridge and Lawson are fun to watch in garbage time. 

One less game to suffer through this year.  

Looks like NT will get spared the expense of the CUSA tournament.

Added some more columns, including percentage on shots made to go with last night's abysmal game:

i guess benford is pretty consistent.  maybe because he has not change anything since he first got here.  his offense has not changed since he first arrived.  what is the definition of crazy again?

Well if we don't renew his contract because wren is still evaluating him for the head coach position. I just wanted to know when he last day on the job will be.  Might help pack his office up and carry things to his car. you know like the CUSA trophy's we have won.

While our 3-point game is woefully short at both ends, we cannot overlook our poor free throw shooting. Opponents can defend more aggressively when they know we will not hit free throws.
