Your bar graph: NCAA Basketball Stats Your bullets: The difference in 2-point shooting percentages was fairly narrow, so the big differential in the eFG% bar was driven almost entirely by 3-point shooting. They hit 9 of 16 from beyond the [...]

MSU accelerates past Ohio State 78-67 in a 60-possession game. Statsheet box score. This was, of course, a tale of two halves.
