G-MAC Basketball

Re: G-MAC Basketball

Well, this is embarrassing. The sheet that I was referencing that data off of had some weird errors in the formulas (probably from sorting and filtering) so lines were getting crossed between conferences. I've fixed it and I can tell you that I was flat out wrong on all of my claims. Please disregard my previous post. I've blanked it out so as not to confuse anybody further.

To set the record straight,
GLVC - average PI = 11.80 (#10), average nonconf win% = 50.5% (#13)
GLIAC - average PI = 12.13 (#5), average nonconf win% = 51.6% (#11)
GMAC - average PI = 11.31 (#19), average nonconf win% = 45.8% (#17)

Don't be so hard on yourself. You do an amazing job on this stuff and it is easy to imagine spreadsheet errors.

If anybody's curious about who's played what quality of competition, here's an overly detailed breakdown.

Way above average GLVC teams played moderately under average GLIAC teams.

GMAC:
average win% of nonconference opponents ONLY: 49.9%
breakdown by conference - [average win% of select opponents], [average win% of entire conference]: (this indicates whether the teams played were above/below average for teams in that conference)

Re: G-MAC Basketball

Possibly one bid conference if Findlay wins GMAC tourney and GLVC a 5 team bid (look out for Drury)

If Drury beats Indy in first round of GLVC Tournament, I think Indy is out of NCAA.

Re: G-MAC Basketball

Yet they are a 2-bid league this year at best while the GLVC is possibly a 4-bid league!?!

Why do you think that is so?

Re: G-MAC Basketball

Interesting observation I just noticed in my database...looking at only D2 competition, the G-MAC has the best out-of-conference record across all 24 conferences (69.9%).
They also have the highest average P.I. out of all 24 conferences (12.50).

It seems to me that the recent additions of several GLIAC teams have really turned the GMAC into a formidable basketball conference.


I'm sure somebody will ask, so I'll report that the GLVC is 7th and the GLIAC is 10th in average PI. The GLVC is 6th and the GLIAC is 13th in non-conference win%.

Good info. to know. Thank you. Go GMAC!

Re: G-MAC Basketball

Not trying to downplay the accomplishment of having the best out of conference record, but would that have anything to do with who the out of conference opponents were? Obviously if they played a lot of weak out of conference teams they would likely have a high winning percentage, not saying that is the case here but just wondering if the strength of the out of conference competition was taken into account.

Thanks for sharing. Surprised.

Re: G-MAC Basketball

CU got a nice win against ODU tonight - which moves CU ahead of the Panthers in the standings. First time in a long time that I put a jackets game on the big tv and sat down and watched the majority of a game. Nice crowd - certainly more than I've seen in a while. This team has more depth than usual - allowing a real nice player rotation off the bench. I really like freshmen Quinton Green and Branden Maughmer.
