Assist to Turnover
Vanderbilt: 2nd - 2.63
Nevada: 31st - 1.76
Bench PPG
Vanderbilt: 53rd - 33.25
Nevada: 284th - 18.00
This is something to watch. Nevada heavily relies on their starting group, who is taller. Could VU’s pace make a difference here late in the game?
Fast break points
Vanderbilt: 43rd - 17.25
Nevada: 271st - 8.25
Again, can the pace give Vandy an edge?
FG Percentage
Nevada: 30th - 51.69%
Vanderbilt 91st - 48.13%
Not a huge advantage here
Scoring Defense
Nevada: 36th - 61.2 PPG
Vanderbilt: 205th - 72.2 PPG
First real test for Nevada’s defense, and first real test for VU’s offense. Intriguing matchup
Scoring offense
Vanderbilt: 23rd - 91.5 PPG
Nevada: 120th - 81.8 PPG
Three Point Percentage
Nevada: 2nd - 48.61%
Vanderbilt: 310th - 27.87%
Likely where the game will be won or lost. Need a good shooting performance
All in all, this has the makings of a really good game. It will be interesting to see if Vandy’s depth/pace can wear Nevada down. Vandy will have to guard the three, while making some of their own on the other end. Nevada will be in the NCAA Tournament most likely, so this is not a must win, but it’d be a great one for the resume.
