- Net rating (points per 100 possessions): High Point 10th (+19.1), Maryland Eastern Shore 336th (-14.4) of 365.
- Recent scoring margins: worth about 4.7 points to High Point in our ratings.
- Home court: High Point play at home, worth about 3 points in college basketball, more than in the NBA.
- Team matchup: where High Point can take advantage. Their ball pressure (9th of 365) meets the Maryland Eastern Shore ball security (364th), so look for them to turn steals into easy points in transition. And their offensive rebounding (133rd of 365) meets the Maryland Eastern Shore defensive rebounding (310th): a chance to crash the glass for second chances. Pace clash: High Point play fast (49th of 365 in pace), Maryland Eastern Shore slow (318th); whoever sets the tempo gets the game they want.
- Star matchup: Best player against best player, Terry Anderson (High Point: 16.0 pts, 6.1 reb, 1.7 ast, Game Score 14.1) has the edge on Zion Obanla (Maryland Eastern Shore: 10.8 pts, 5.9 reb, 0.9 ast, Game Score 8.8).
- Simulation: High Point win 4,885 of 5,000 simulated games.
Disadvantages Why High Point may not
- Weak spot: High Point rank 326th of 365 in strength of schedule (-1.4).
- Shooting variance: one hot or cold night from three swings college games by 10 points or more.
- Who plays: college basketball has no league-wide injury report, so a late absence can arrive at tip-off.
- Young rosters: freshmen and transfers can change a team's level from one month to the next.
- Team matchup: where Maryland Eastern Shore can push back. Their offensive rebounding (103rd of 365) meets the High Point defensive rebounding (197th), so look for them to crash the glass for second chances.
- Star matchup: the key positions lean High Point on paper, but Zion Obanla (10.8 pts, 5.9 reb, 0.9 ast, Game Score 8.8) is the kind of player who can swing one game.
- Upset odds: Maryland Eastern Shore win 115 of 5,000 simulations (2%). Even a pick this strong still loses about 2 times in 100.
