Value of FT's and winning records

[jasonpeoria911]

So I got to looking at the FT percentages of the top Valley teams compared to Bradley, as FT's seem to be the common theme this season...

Based on the top 5 point per game players this season....

Bradley (5-4)
Brown- 72%
Warren- 73%
Roberts- 67%
Maniscalco- 79%
Egolf- 36%

Missouri St (10-0)
Weems- 70%
Leonard- 81%
Mallett- 89%
Patterson- 75%
Creekmore- 70%

Wichita St (10-1)
Murry- 75%
Durley- 86%
Hannah- 93%
Stutz- 78%
Hatch- 80%

Northern Iowa (8-1)
Ahelegbe- 66%
Koch- 75%
Eglseder- 64%
Farokhmanesh- 80%
Moran- 40%

So our five are shooting a slightly better percentage than 8-1 Valley favorites Northern Iowa.

In oreder to make that statement you would have to do a weighted average.

I watched the WSU - Texas Tech game log last night and WSU was very impressive down the stretch. Tech made several 3 point shots in the closing minutes, but time and time again, the WSU players made both FT's when Tech fouled. Very impressive showing by the WSU players to hold off a furious Tech rally.

How is that, given the original post of looking at the FT percentages of the top Valley teams compared to Bradley, based on the top 5 point per game players this season....?

Seriously, I don't see much difference at all when looking at those numbers for us and UNI.
