Play KSR Game Contest: Kentucky v Virginia Tech
It's one of the top offensive teams in the country (Virginia Tech, 9-1 and averaging 96.2 points per game) we'll be facing. Can we slow that down? Do we want to slow that down?
1. Predict the Kentucky margin of victory (+) OR loss (-). If you believe that Kentucky will lose, make sure that you make it clearly known with a -- [minus sign], or something else.
2. Predict the game high scorer, AND the total number of points he will score in the game. NOTE--it does not have to be a Kentucky player for this KSR point.
3. OVER/UNDER: 96, as in Virginia Tech's average. Will they score OVER 96, or UNDER 96, and by how many?
4. Let's PAR-boil another: Doc's concoction a few years ago, where we take a specific player's PAR -- their POINTS scored in the game, their ASSISTS they had in the game, and their REBOUNDS in the game--we "boil" it by MULTIPLYING THEM ALL TOGETHER, i.e., Points x Assists x Rebounds to get the figure. It can produce wildly different results. Let's see how good you are with this one--Predict the PAR-boil for P. J. Washington. (What if he has no assists!) Just need a number.
Tiebreaker: Virginia Tech's 3-point FG percentage (they average 46.8%).
Good luck!

I think UK gets destroyed. We have given people open 3s all season, and this is exactly the team to exploit that.
1) UK loses by 11
2) Alexander-Walker, 24
3) Under - 4 (92 points)
4) Total: 168 (14 x 6 x 2)

UK may lose but Virginia Tech has played no one to this point to pile up these impressive numbers and the game is in Rupp!

Cats win 93-86. A rare point win for me.

Knox with 21 led all scorers, and one point away earns a point for both here.

Several good picks all around this, but this was the best--they scored 86, which was under by 10, and missing by a bucket earned a point.

Great picks on the PAR-Boil, guys.
PJ had 11 points, 5 assists, and 5 rebounds.
11 x 5 x 5 = 275. You guys missed by just 5, and each earn a point.
Re: Play KSR Game Contest: Kentucky v Virginia Tech
So we have two players with two points each, a good showing in any game. But in this game, we'll need to go to the tiebreaker for the winner.
Virginia Tech shot *just* about their average, 45.5% from 3-point range. Catfan73 did an outstanding job of getting that almost exactly right, and with that, captures the win. Alas, I am but a mere bridesmaid. But at least i made the wedding party!
Congrats, Catfan73! Well done!
