Offensive and Defensive Performance

 

Using the outcome of the game and the adjusted offensive and defensive efficiencies for each team, performance indicates (in PTS per 100 Possessions) how each team would have fared against an average team.  That is, KU's offensive performance is how many points per 100 possessions KU would have scored against an average defense.  This provides a standard performance we can compare across teams.

Defensive Performance 87.5 95.3

 Comments

This was a superb defensive effort by Kansas and a subpar offensive output.  Overall, a slightly worse night for the Kangaroos than it was a good night for the Jayhawks.
