Basketball Myth: Super Guard

Chapter 403 Big East League Regular Season

Entering January, the regular seasons of each league division of the NCAA started one after another.

The Syracuse Oranges are in the Big East, along with the Cincinnati Binturongs, Connecticut Huskies, DePaul Witchers, Georgetown Hoyas, Louisville Cardinals, Marquette Golden Eagles, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Pittsburgh Panthers, Providence College Friars, Rutgers Scarlet Knights, St. John's Red Storm, Seton Hall Buccaneers, Fifteen teams including the Bulls of the University of South Florida, the Wildcats of Villanova University and the Mountain Rangers of West Virginia University will go through two rounds of competition and finally decide the champion.

The team that wins the Big East conference will qualify for the NCAA Tournament.

In fact, the league game, such as the Big East League game, is divided into two stages. The first stage is the regular season, and [-] teams adopt the home and away system.

Like Syracuse University, they will play two regular season games with the other [-] teams in the Big East, one home game and one away game. Finally, they will be sorted according to their winning and losing records. The top eight teams will enter the second place. Stage, that is, the league playoffs.

The playoffs adopt a single-elimination competition system, and the champion is determined in the shortest time, and the champion team automatically advances to the NCAA Tournament (that is, the top 64 of the NCAA).

This process will last from January to March, two months.

Don't look at two months, but because the number of teams in each league is different, for example, the Big East has 16 teams, while the Ivy League has only 8 teams.

So for some leagues, the time to end the league game in two months is actually very tight, with an average of one game every one to two days.

It is worth mentioning that the Ivy League is the league with the highest academic achievement, but it is also the most unusual league. They almost never give scholarships to players. The reason is very awesome-we are the best university in the world. For scholarships, it depends on grades and academic scholarships.

Jeremy Lin, who is now in his junior year, is a player from Harvard University who belongs to the Ivy League.

At the same time, the Ivy League is also the only one among the 32 leagues in the NCAA that has no playoffs. The team with the first record in the regular season directly wins the Ivy League championship, which is very easy.

It's like saying to people, we are the Ivy League, mainly academic education, basketball or something just for fun, don't take it too seriously.

As a matter of fact, the results of the Ivy League teams in the NCAA have not been very good.

Of course, the deeper reason is that the Ivy League has produced too many awesome alumni.

For example, the University of Pennsylvania in the Ivy League. The alumni of this school include Warren Buffett, the founder of Tesla Motors, and Leonard Posa, the founder of Cisco Systems. G, Eugene DuPont, the first president of DuPont, Drew Gilpin Foster, the first female president of Harvard University, and Donald Trump (yes, that Trump).
These people can be said to be the richest. The University of Pennsylvania is rich just by accepting donations from these alumni. Why would they care about the sports dividends of the NCAA?
The other Ivy League universities are probably in the same situation. In short, we are awesome, we don't care, you guys play.

Syracuse University, basketball court.

On this day, Syracuse University ushered in the first opponent of the regular season at home - Cincinnati Bearcats (Cincinnati Bearcats).

The strength of this team is not weak, but it is not very strong. It was the No. 9 seed in the Big East last season, and Syracuse University was the No. 5 seed in the Big East last season.

The regular season is different from the preseason. Every team will take each game seriously and strive to enter the playoffs with a better record, so that they can get a more favorable matchup order in the playoffs.

Therefore, there are more fans in the auditorium. More than 2000 people came to the stadium of Syracuse University, most of them are students of Syracuse University, and some people from the society.

Qin Hao even saw two people in the auditorium holding a small flag with the team logo of the University of Cincinnati and waving it vigorously. They were obviously fans of the University of Cincinnati.I don't know why they came here from Cincinnati all the way, just to cheer for the University of Cincinnati.

"boom!"

Qin Hao withdrew his gaze, flicked his wrist, and made a three-pointer, but he missed the shot. The basketball bounced high, which surprised people.

Butler picked up the basketball and passed it to Qin Hao. Qin Hao made some adjustments and shot again, but he still missed. Butler couldn't help being surprised: "Qin, this is not your level."

Qin Hao shook his head helplessly, and shook his right hand: "Who hasn't had a bad hand? Jimmy, I'm planning to score six three-pointers today. If I don't feel good, these six three-pointers will fall on you .”

Just as Butler was about to nod, he calculated it in his head and felt something was wrong, so he quickly shook his head: "No, how many do I have to buy? It's nonsense."

Another wonderful oriental vocabulary.

But Qin Hao never admits that he taught it, there is nothing wrong with it.

After some warm-up, the two sides returned to the sidelines.

The University of Cincinnati players had serious expressions and surrounded coach Fryer. Coach Fryer also had a serious expression. He had studied the game data of Syracuse University in the preseason. He was startled.

In the six preseason games, Syracuse University had 5 wins and 1 loss. The only loss was to the University of Tennessee, but they won back on the road two days later.

The other few games were relatively easy to win, with an average win of about [-] points.

Not to mention the opponents behind, the strength of the University of Tennessee is very strong. Even if this is a preseason game, it is considered a warm-up nature, and it is possible to win a game against the University of Tennessee, or it is still an away game, which is enough to explain the problem.

Looking at the player data, Holbert is very good, averaging 16.5 points per game. As the captain of Syracuse University, this data is normal.

What is abnormal is that it is not him who scores more points, but Qin Hao and Butler, one averages 19.4 points per game, the other averages 18.5 points per game, two unfamiliar names, they only joined Syracuse University this season, and they have never been in Appeared in ncaa level one league games.

What does this mean?
This shows that Syracuse University hit the big luck and found two excellent players, players who are stronger than Holbert. With these two players joining, how strong will Syracuse University be today?
