UMass is not good. Yes, they're 10-3. But that's against #286 OOC SOS in Ken Pom, #139 current OOC SOS in RPI, and projected 166 OOC in RPI Forecast. They may finish top 100 RPI, but being a home game- that's not considered an a or b level game.
I think looking at it- and taking into account billyjacks comments about Maine Wagner- fatigue may be coming into play....
in November- he played 7 games. His average offensive rating game was 112.7. Avg opponent in November in Ken Pom was 151.9.
In December he played 7 games. His average offensive rating game was 80.7. Avg opponent in December in Ken Pom was 171.3.
and more so- look at the shooting....
in November he shot 52-105. 49.5%
in December he shot 32-87. 36.8%
And it's been much more just these last 4 games....
1st 10 games- avg opp 149.3 Avg off rating 111.6. shooting 71-142 overall 50%
last 4 games- avg opp 192.3. Avg off rating 59.5(with 3 of 4 worst games) shooting 13-50 26%.
Just admit you were wrong. You said Bullock has been awful against any team with a pulse and you were wrong.
