Pomeroy Ratings and Stats

[Dave in Green]

Ken Pomeroy's ratings and statistics are considered by many to be the most sophisticated and relevant in college basketball. In addition to the national rankings (Zips are currently #96 and Can't #100), some of the individual stats are pretty amazing in their fine detail.For example, Brett McKnight is currently ranked 7th in the country out of all D1 players in terms of percentage of total team shots taken (34.4%), Darryl Roberts is ranked 24th in the country in terms of fewest fouls per 40 minutes played (1.37) and Jimmy Conyers is 62nd among all D1 players in terms of percentage of his team's total defensive rebounds (23.5%).If you visit the Zips team page (link below), be prepared to spend some time there understanding all of the definitions. One interesting point is that the Pomeroy statistical analysis predicts, based on team records to date, that the Zips will lose their next two games on the road to Can't and WMU, and then win the rest of their MAC games this season.Pomeroy Zips Team Link
