I forgot that I paid $25 earlier in the year for Kenpom premium. Here are the schedule predictions and what they say are the chance of winning percentage for each game. I"ll have some other interesting stats later.

Vandy - W (78%)
@Arkansas - L (32%)
Georgia - W (79%)
Auburn - W (56%)
@LSU - W (65%)
Arkansas - W (54%)
@Missouri - L (44%)
Tennessee - L (29%)
@Miss St - L (43%)
@ Ole Miss - W (59%)
Alabama - L (32%)

The projected record would be 20-11, 12-6.

Interesting that Miss State is only 43% win percent. They have lost 8 of 9 although they are playing better.

Kenpom gives the Ags 3.4 points as homecourt advantage at Reed. That home court advantage is 82nd in Division I. Texas Tech and West Virginia get 4.6 points per home game to lead the nation. Kentucky is best in SEC at 4.2

I really miss when that info was free. Good for him, though. Thanks for posting this.

Great stuff. Can't afford to lose all 5 of the "swing" games, IMO, and still expect to make the tournament. IMO, of @Arky, @Mizzou, Auburn, Tennessee and Alabama, we need to win at least 2 of those games.

Also, interestingly enough, I think we match up really well with Bama, Miss State, Auburn and, to a lesser degree, Tennessee. Not saying we should be picked to win those games, but I think those teams are a bit better matchups for us than the records and stats would indicate. Missouri I feel like is the exact opposite. IMO, I think that is one of the hardest games left on our schedule (due to it being on the road AND the bad matchup).

Thanks! Really interesting how this schedule breaks down. If it went to chalk, we'd be 11-2 headed to the final stretch likely in control of our own destiny to win the league. Then all the talk would be a scuffle down the stretch in losing 4 of the last 5.

We also are likely to lose at least one of the games we are supposed to win just given this is college basketball and it is hard to win every game where you are the favorite. It makes winning at least 2 and ideally 3 of those 5 games critical to ensure March Madness will come to College Station.

I posted this link on another thread earlier this week - as I really like how they just don't do their brackets based on "if the season ended today" like I believe Lunardi and others do it - but instead these guys look at real time results each day and then plug in those updated results to produce multiple computer simulations of how the rest of the season is likely to go - with their brackets based on those projected results - and with probabilities included.

Just since I have found this site and been following this week - the Ags have gone from just below the cut line with a 36% chance of making the NCAAT after our Kentucky loss - to jumping up to a 9 seed with a 63% chance of going to the dance after our superb performance in beating the crap out of Auburn on their home floor. Bruce Pearl would agree, I think

Espn had us at a 25% chance to win yesterday.

It's important to remember that this data includes the non conference games. Would be interesting to see how he projected our season to play out if only considering SEC play. I think we all agree this isn't the same team from December for whatever reason.

Funny. I had us as 75% chance to win last night. ;-)

Seriously- it is amazing how a win like ours last night beating a top 15 team on their home court can change both the game by game projected results AND the projected results of the season and likelihood of NCAAT invitation.

Note that the computer based projected bracketology that I linked earlier shows us as going 6-5 the rest of the season to earn that 9 seed - which obviously puts us as 12-6 before the SECT.

I think we will do better than that...

The "whatever reason" is the coaching and the players coming together and embracing the system/strategy and their roles in it - as well as good old fashioned practice with a purpose to improve.

In my opinion.

Two concerning statistics that keeps getting worse are defensive steals and 3-pt FG %... The Aggies dropped down to 300th out of 350 teams at 31.5% and are 277th in steals.

Manny O, of all people, leads the team at 41% from 3 (5-12)

In the last 5 games:
Wade Taylor 6-29 (20.6%)
Tyrece Radford 9-25 (36%)
Dexter Dennis 3-16 (18.7%), and at 26% for the year. He has taken the second most threes on the team.
