The big McM-HSU matchup is Monday. Last season, I tried to guess the outcome of the second game between the two teams, comparing the relative point spreads against teams they both played leading up to the match. Last time, HSU was beating opponents by a higher point margin than McM, and they went on to win the matchup. Here's the spread this time around, if anyone is interested:
McM HSU
LeT 84-62 +22 79-55 +24
MC 87-62 +25 80-55 +35
LC 95-53 +42 88-48 +40
total +89 +99
It shows HSU with a 10-point advantage, mainly from comparison of the two scores with MC. It should be interesting Monday night, if only to see if these kinds of point comparisons have any relevance at all to reality!
