Steps are rounded to one decimal, so they can differ from the total by 0.1: the total steps add to 152.9 against a projected 153.0, and the margin steps add to +10.1 against +10.0. The margin is the same build seen from the home side; positive numbers help Florida St.

Pace & total

Tempo, possessions per 40 minutes

Projected possessions: 67.6, from each team's opponent-adjusted tempo. On raw 2025-26 season pace, Florida St is the faster team (71.8, #27 of 365) and Green Bay the slower (64.7, #336). When tempos clash, the slower team usually pulls the pace harder (study weights 0.80 vs 0.66).

How this game plays

what the study found each side's numbers actually do when these two teams meet
AdvantageFlorida St
Where Florida St scores: ball control
Florida St turns it over on 15.2% of possessions (#83); Green Bay forces turnovers on 13.2% of opponent possessions (#351). Expect about 13.6%, 3.2 points below an average D1 matchup — worth roughly +3.9 points per 100 possessions.
AdvantageGreen Bay
Where Green Bay scores: shooting
Green Bay shoots an effective 54.9% (#41); Florida St allows 52.2% (#226). Expect about 53.9%, 2.6 points above an average D1 matchup — worth roughly +3.7 points per 100 possessions.
Pace
Tempo tug-of-war
Florida St averages 71.8 possessions per 40, Green Bay 64.7. Slower teams pull the pace toward themselves more than fast teams push it (0.80 vs 0.66 in five seasons of games), so expect about 68 — more possessions mean more points in the total and more chances for the better team to separate.
ClashFlorida St
Style match: 3-point volume
Florida St takes 50.6% of its shots from three; Green Bay lets opponents take 43.3% of their shots from three (D1 average 39.5%). Expect about 50.8% — both habits push the same way.
Watch for noise
3-point caution
A notable season 3-point number here (Green Bay, Green Bay's defense) is close to a coin flip going forward — the study's model of next-game 3P% barely beats guessing the D1 average. Shot volume is what actually carries: expect Green Bay at about 41.2% of its shots from three, Florida St about 50.8%.

Head-to-head

this season and last
No meetings the last two seasons.

The CBB Matchups tab lays out the day's Division I slate: matchup, tip time, records and rank, and — once posted — Pinnacle's spread and total (the median across books when Pinnacle has no line). Three views switch the table between projected scores, pace and totals, and each team's offensive and defensive tendencies. Each game opens into opponent-adjusted possessions, efficiency and four-factor tendencies for both teams, plus recent form, rotation and head-to-head history. Every game also carries our projected score, spread and total, built bottom-up from those same numbers: expected possessions times each side's opponent-adjusted points per possession, plus home court.

What these numbers mean: line shopping.
