you know, if you went to 8 decimal points, it would really help my gameplanning.

j/k. love the overall and vs. averages - thanks

Sorry that's just what comes our in the formula and I don't know how to cut sown the decimal places when pasting into wis.

I know I'm not in this conference, but I was skimming forums for any tips or anything, and I saw the offense and defense rating and just wondered what formula you use to do this. If you don't mind sharing, could you possibly sitemail it to me? Thanks.

It's actually a pretty simple formula: points per 100 possessions.  There are a couple different formulas for possessions, so I'd google it and choose the one you like best.  

Alright, thanks.

should be a great conference tourney.

Pretty wide open CT this season, I think.  

It's conceivable that 8 different teams could win the CT.

Let's revisit the predictions...

Guilford:
Prediction: 11-15 (7-9)
Actual: 13-13 (7-9) 
Predicted MVP: Paul Thomas
Actual MVP (according to my own formula): Paul Thomas (7.31)

VWC:
Prediction: 18-8 (12-4), NT
Actual: 16-10 (12-4), most likely NT appearance
MVP: Larry Sarinsky
Actual MVP: Larry Sarinsky (10.2)

Bridgewater:
Prediction: 15-11 (10-6), PI
Actual: 17-9 (10-6), PI unless they win the CT
MVP: David Allain
MVP: Scott Goncalves (9.61)...it was really close

EMU:
Prediction: 24-2 (16-0), Deep NT run
Actual: 18-8 (14-2), NT
MVP: Darrell Calhoun
MVP: Darrell Calhoun (17.5)...it wasn't close

R-M
Prediction: 18-8 (11-5), PI
Actual: 21-5 (13-3), borderline--too close to call
MVP: David Poch 
MVP: David Poch (15.4)


Roanoke
Prediction: 14-12 (9-7)
Actual: 16-10 (11-5)
MVP: Aaron Davis
MVP: Aaron Davis (9.71)

No upsets, the 8 best teams are still alive.

Nice work on the predictions.  Walker will validate your pre-season confidence in him in the CT.  ;)

Damn, nice write-up tkimble.  Sure wish I could join this conference.

What's stopping you GM?  Last year carlbuzz almost joined because he was so fed up with his simAI dominated conference (he went d2 instead).  We'd love to have you and there are some pretty damn good teams opening up.

yeah, come on over miami. and help me learn some combo defense when you come.
