I have a question for you Sedz. I am not asking this for one-up-man-ship. I am curious. I know you are just relaying the data. I know that you are not making this stuff up. How is it that UC is being outplayed in the paint and still have these great defensive paint stats? For instance, KU outscored UC in the paint 32 to 24. Colorado outscored UC in the paint 38 to 26. Baylor outscored UC in the paint 40 to 16. You get my drift here? What is your take on this?

Because our interior offense is so bad. We were 14 of 37 (38%) from two against Colorado. 15 of 37 (41%) against Kansas. 9 of 26 (35%) against Baylor. As good as our interior defense is, the interior offense is even worse.

I think Bearcat fans have become used to bad interior scoring because we've been watching it on both ends for years. But it's not normal. The average team makes 58% at the rim. Top 50 is 64%. Texas Tech is #7 at 67%. We'll have our hands full tonight.
