I haven't been able to watch tonight but I know Liberty is supposed to be a really good shooting team, is it a luck difference or are we playing better defense tonight?

Well two of their really good shooters are listed at under 6 foot tall. So that's probably playing a part in it. They also haven't played anybody this season, unless you think Carolina University is a quality team.
12/10/2025 8:42:43 PM
Thanks for that detailed analysis
12/10/2025 8:46:22 PM
No problem, i have lots of time. I am also not watching, but I'm guessing it's a combination of better defense, poor shooting luck and liberty not actually being good.]
12/10/2025 8:47:04 PM
According to the broadcast, they had the 4th highest 3PT% in D1

Someone who actually watches the games here. We definitely played much better defense. Half their points have come in garbage time. We played up on the good shooters a lot better, didn't get lost watching the ball nearly as much. And outside of one fast break play where the guy launched from 9 feet behind the line, were really disruptive and kept them from getting shots up in rythym. There were a couple of times still where a guy was a little too open, but they missed a bunch of those too, so maybe the guy shooting in that moment was open on purpose.

So sounds like D. Williams is nursing a shoulder ??

Liberty is such a "shitty team" that beating them only jumped us 12 spots in the NET rankings to #30.
12/11/2025 1:07:25 PM
When I hear (i think) that that Brett Decker dude leads the country in 3 points made and is 2nd in the country for 3P%, i fully expected him to hang 30+ on us.

Will be at the Kansas game with the Fam. we are 1-0 when I attend the games.

Are you going to help Stripe Out Lenovo?
12/11/2025 4:34:08 PM
^^ huge data point in the Pack’s favor.
12/11/2025 5:38:53 PM
yup, in the red section so a lot easier. ha.
12/12/2025 10:43:38 AM
you mean “THE RED SECTIONING?”
12/12/2025 2:56:09 PM
NIcewe are a 1.5 point FAVORITE!!!! sound the alarm!!!!told my wife we have to bring the head phone for the kids. it;s gonna be wild early and if we have any chance late it will be LOUD. making my son yell here comes the wolfpack before the 2nd just to keep that going.
12/12/2025 3:19:36 PM
Lol. Lmao.

Big game against KU today and let me the first to say….KU? More like P U! The data is incomplete so far. We have several future common opponents. KU has played UNC, Duke, Syracuse, Notre Dame. Wait, is Kansas in the ACC? No they aren’t but you’re forgiven for thinking so given their opponents to date. Unfortunately those data points don’t do us much good yet because those opponents haven’t yet appeared on our schedule. Both teams have had some wins and some losses this year so it’s really a mixed bag of results. One thing I’m gonna keep an eye on, Kansas has not played since Tuesday. Meanwhile the Pack played Wednesday so Kansas could have a little rust with the extra day off.

Jayhawks more like [not doing this in 2025, come on we’ve moved past that]
12/13/2025 12:29:04 PM
Jayhawks more like nayhawks[Edited on December 13, 2025 at 1:16 PM. Reason : Also how bad is the red sectioning going to go tonight? I say pretty bad!]
12/13/2025 1:16:07 PM
Oh yeah Nayhawks. That’s what I was gonna post too
12/13/2025 1:31:31 PM
Greg Ostertag? More like[Edited on December 13, 2025 at 4:14 PM. Reason : more like Greg Postertag when Darrion POSTERIZES HIM!!1 after going back in time!]
12/13/2025 4:05:05 PM
DWs time travel ability will be a real x factor tonight
12/13/2025 5:08:44 PM
“Trey White is so good at leaning his body into yours and creating a foul” yeah thats a skill that shouldn’t be rewarded or celebrated. It’s just bad officiating.
12/13/2025 5:50:15 PM
Jesus, we’re like 1 for 13 from 3 now, but just keep jacking them up
12/13/2025 6:11:47 PM
Plenty of decent 3 PT looks. Just can’t knock them down. 14 is a bad shooter so I get that we’re ok letting him shoot. But maybe even a bad shooter is pretty decent when he’s unguarded. Idk
12/13/2025 6:12:13 PM
Really hate rewarding the offensive player for getting double teamed and then just leaping up and double clutching to draw a foul
12/13/2025 6:15:26 PM
We need somebody to step up as a difference maker. Q is the closest thing we have to that. DW just hasn’t been that difference maker in these games vs better opponents.
12/13/2025 6:29:39 PM
Kansas is shooting 22% from 3 and 31% total, so the overall strategy of daring him to jack up 3s and stopping everyone else seems to be going fine for now. If we can have him regress to his mean and we regress to our mean on 3s, then we will really be in business.
12/13/2025 6:34:26 PM
Defense has mostly been fine. But DW or somebody has to be the alpha and take charge offensively.
12/13/2025 6:38:19 PM
Not sure if this is a hot take or not but I think Jay Williams is worse than Jay Bilas…if we’re comparing Duke Jays.
12/13/2025 6:39:03 PM
Have you guys heard of Darryn Peterson?? Supposed to be an ok player apparently[Edited on December 13, 2025 at 6:48 PM. Reason : Y]
12/13/2025 6:47:34 PM
You mean Peterson? For Kansas? Number 22? The highly rated recruit? The future NBA star? No never heard of him
12/13/2025 6:49:06 PM
that one dude in the Rinvoq commercial is carrying the entire team on his back
12/13/2025 6:54:25 PM
Q has been good this year. Better than I expected. But if he’s our best player, we aren’t gonna go very far. DW, McNeil, Able have to be better.
Wild wild game
12/13/2025 7:14:52 PM
Yeah, might be time to start guarding 14

12/13/2025 7:17:13 PM
I feel like he's made multiples 3s guarded as well
12/13/2025 7:20:13 PM
We left council open in the first half. But he’s just hit everything in the second half. Covered or not.
12/13/2025 7:24:04 PM
Unreal shot making from some dude shooting like 34% from the field all season.
12/13/2025 7:25:26 PM
Dammit, was gonna go to the gym, close in 1.5hr.
12/13/2025 7:30:38 PM
Just insanity
12/13/2025 7:34:03 PM
He’s gonna go for 40. So fucking stupid
12/13/2025 7:35:02 PM
Couple real BS calls late
12/13/2025 7:45:10 PM
Our luck quotient is going to get even worse my god
12/13/2025 7:50:04 PM
Well bummer
