1 minute to go, 73% chance Iowa wins. They didn't

Please start a thread showing how Wisconsin is about 85% sure to win Wednesday. Maybe we need to have overwhelming odds against us...since we continue to buck the odds.

haha, you are pretty close actually.

KenPom has Wisconsin begged at 80% to win. Nicely done.

Not making free throws thruout the game has been a big factor in many of these losses. Against Minny, I believe the Hawks only made 6 out of 13 attempts? Purdue and Ohio State the same story. When the Hawks shoot 75+% from the line they usually win.

I also remember Gesell missing the front end of a 1 and 1. Those drive me nuts, to me that is as bad as a turnover.
 




We are improving rapidly and have played the best teams, other than Michigan, very well and had a chance, perhaps with a call or two, or the bounce of the ball. We are getting there. Before this season is done, I do believe we will learn to win a close game in which we have the lead......

We really are not that far from the majority opinion preseason.......

Living proof that we are getting better, slower than some would prefer, but we are improving in a lot of ways......

Our D is getting better, and I saw fear in the Ohio State players eyes during our comeback in the second half. One of the announcers mentioned it.......

Saw a little of the same at Minnesota.......

Our team D is very good at times. Anthony is becoming a lock down, on the ball defender......

:)
 


Is this another rendition of the movie, "Ground Hog Day"? Ok, who wants to play Bill Murray?
 








This team confuses the heck of me

For sure, why learn from your mistakes? So dumb.

I don't even....

Statistical probability measurements are 100% useless for events that have already happened. You do not need to predict the outcome of things that have already occurred. There is absolutely nothing to learn from these numbers.

Iowa was 10-17 at the line.
Minny was 14-21.
Both missed 7 free throws.

For the season Iowa is shooting 70.6% from the line and shot 58.8% in the Minnesota game.

For the season Minnesota is shooting 68.8 % from the line and shot 66.7% against the Hawks.

If Iowa shoots their normal % they go 12-17 and those 2 free throws make it a totally different game. Hawks are up 4 instead of 2 when Hollins drilled that 3.

Don't repeat your mistakes. Easy lesson learned.
You can certainly look at future projections to evaluate the past, for sure.
