For my fellow stats enthusiasts, KenPom's model predicts us to finish 12-6 in the B1G. Based on individual games, we will be favored in 8 of 12 remaining games. The offensive efficiency number jumped up to #7 in the country (I think it was about 12th pre-game). The defensive efficiency number fell to #199 (previously #192 pre-game.
Will be interesting to see how great offense and average defense plays out the rest of the season. One random factoid that shows some unexplained luck, IU is second in the country in defensive FT%. Opponents are only shooting 60% against us. #1 in the country? Mike Davis' Texas Southern
Also, the 5-1 record is more pronounced by the stat that they've played the 6th toughest in-conference schedule. It should move up to 5th after Sunday. Wisconsin is 5-1 against BY FAR the weakest in-conference schedule.
