A stunning role reversal?
Offered for your consideration, and without further analysis. (For now. We'll have more on this later.)
Adjusted efficiency is how a team would be expected to perform against an average opponent on a neutral court. If you don't know what efficiency is or why it matters, start here.
| Adjusted Offensive Efficiency (National Rank) |
Adjusted Defensive Efficiency (National Rank) |
|
| Washington State | 124.7 (2) | 113.0 (317) |
| Gonzaga | 108.3 (79) | 91.0 (69) |
Granted, it's still very early in the season, and these adjusted ratings tend to fluctuate pretty significantly thanks to small sample size. But who would have thought, after the last half a decade, that Gonzaga would enter tomorrow night's matchup as the dominant defensive team? And that the Cougs would be the team with the offensive juggernaut?
Weird.

The next two nights of sports are going to be awesome,
as far as mid week sports go. Tomorrow, we get role reversal clash. Then thursday we get the civil war reenactment game.
Harris and Sacre
Harris and Sacre give them a nice inside presence. Harris reminds me of Carlos Danies back in the day although Daniels was a bit bigger. Both had those long arms and although they didn’t look pretty all the time were very productive.
This is a tougher version of the Zag’s and still very deep especially at the wings. Bouldin, Gray, Gibbs, Arop, and Kong give them a lot of flexibility. Kong has been playing some 4 as well.
