The Power of The 10-0 Run

An interesting metric now that I'm safe.

Just came to post this. There is a lot of evidence that we’re as good as anybody at our best, as most of us know. Iona is fascinating because they are “streaky” in that they give up a lot of runs, and also go on a lot. Let’s reel off another 27 unanswered on Friday.

I sucked at statistics. We're good right?

 

[AdamaNation]

Mind. Blown!!

That is exactly where a team would want to be on the graph as far as winning goes. No shock to see our company there. But I don’t feel like we give up so few runs. So many teams have made big runs against us in games, in part due to DH’s TO management

We have allowed five 10-0 runs this year.

So are the stats lying when they say we don't give up big runs?

Interesting, is that how they define it? I wonder how many 8-point runs we’ve allowed. And that discounts something like a 15-2 run

We gave up 2 separate 10-0+ runs against Providence in the 2nd half, otherwise we would have had the fewest in the country. We were the lowest for most of the year.

Alabama has the fewest, but we did put one on them in our game earlier this year (14-0 actually and had a 13-1 run in 2nd half).

Somehow no matter what on any topic DH gets shade thrown his way. We need to stop it about the coach. We were not picked to be a top twenty team this year. Although Shaka took a team that was projected worse further, he may be the only coach who did more with what the experts thought he had pre season. We were picked fourth in the BE and guess what we finished fourth. But nobody picked us as a #2 in the country team. And I still believe in the eye test. When we are playing our game we are a top three eye test team…..

Does anyone else think Duke is an upset candidate against Oral Roberts? If Duke didn’t win in the ACC I’d be sure of it.

Well, just about all endpoints are arbitrary. Is it possible we give up more 8-0 runs than similarly rated teams? I honestly don’t know. I suspect we don’t. We should ask the winner if the math geek tournament. I’d say 10-0 runs scored and conceded is a good barometer of a team’s ability to go on and prevent runs.

Yeah we must be able to manipulate this somehow to perpetuate the narrative that Hurley is a dogisht coach. Stat guys get on it!

 

[JustbrewitMan]

Certain folks will eventually claim that giving up a 2-0 run is “strong evidence” that Hurley has horrible TO management.

I’m sure of it because they won the ACC

Sure, the arbitrary nature of defining things is what makes statistics so “fun” lol and like I said, a 15-2 run won’t be included there, which is certainly a killer.

Oh, please. You’re smarter than this.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Oh, please. You’re smarter than this.

He is, that's obvious from his post history.

You on the other hand, it remains to be seen.

Thanks for the substantive contribution

Wow look I can do sarcasm too

 

[FfldCntyFan]

I'm just waiting for someone to state "it's already March 15 and DH still hasn't won a tournament game here".

Leave it to the actual funny posters

I said in that dork thread you mathletes have going but @UConnStats owns you all.

I think just referencing the last 4 national champions isn't large enough of a sample size to take this statistic too seriously.

 

[caw]

What I would like to know is what games did UConn have those kill shots in, and aside from PC, which games did UConn concede kill shots.
