It just helps get a better orientation and what the numbers truly mean

2) The second stat I am using and only during tournament time is the Effective Age for each team. Experience plays a HUGE role come this time a year. I am going to have a hard time betting a team with a much younger team than who they are playing.

Just a couple things to think about. I was glad to see somebody else is a Kenpom believer, it's time a lot of those outdated stats are thrown out. Good luck to you though!


I have every Kenpom sheet, for every team conference and regular season in my "Trapper Keeper" along with a lot of other info.

Love the Kenpom site

SOS is located on the end of the spreadsheet though.  I think you might have missed that.  It's right by pace of play.

Just found it semi-interesting as I always love betting First Half plays during the tourney


Kinder,

I saw this post tonight after the 7pm games tipped off. so i took all the overs first halves on games at 60 or under.

North Dakota/.Air Force 57.5
Jacksonville/.East Carolina 59.5
Fairfield/.Colorado State 59
Murray State/.Missouri St 58
UAB/.Clemson 55.5

4-1 to start.Like I said no idea how the 7pm games did though.

Also I just looked back at last year and wanted to share this.
Experience----out of the Top 10, one of those made the Sweet 16---Cornell

Least Experience team----Kentucky. 

I agree it has some to do with it...but not as much sometimes as just raw talent and basketball smarts.

First of all, congratulations on providing members on this site with useful information.

Since this information was handy for me, I wanted to contribute the distribution of 1H wagers for last years ROUND 1 tournament games as follows:

Line           Over   Under       

50-54.5         0      1

55-59.5         5      1

60-64.5         4      5

65-69.5         5      7

70+              3      0        1 Push

Total          17     14        1

I have a comment on these results. Statistically, there is nothing that stands out overall, except maybe the highest numbers 70+ tended to go over, as well as the 55 - 59.50 grouping. Interestingly, one game the pros wagered heavily on last year was under 53 1H in the Wisconsin-Wofford matchup. As you can see from the chart, the pros won this one easily, as the total fell on 46. To randomly wager "over" on all game totals under 60 would normally be suicidal,  last year you would have been 5-2.  I'll take that anytime.

BOL in you wagers,

Shirley
