A (semi) Statistical Recap of Pittsburg State

And we’re back! Kansas tipped off its season (kind of) last night, with a 100-54 murder of Pittsburg State, which wasn’t really as close as it looked.

The Jayhawks scored a pretty insane 1.3 points per possession, while limiting the Gorillas to an equally insane .72 points per possession. It’s important to note in these things that Kansas has the overwhelming athleticism advantage, and just as notably a size advantage, which skews these numbers big time. I don’t think Kansas will have many games where they hit the offensive glass as well as they did last night, which means don’t go crowning them yet.
