Tempo, possessions per 40 minutes

Projected possessions: 68.9, from each team's opponent-adjusted tempo. On raw 2025-26 season pace, Dartmouth is the faster team (69.2, #130 of 365) and Marist the slower (66.5, #271). 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
AdvantageDartmouth
Where Dartmouth struggles: shooting
Dartmouth shoots an effective 51.8% (#156); Marist allows 45.6% (#5). Expect about 48.7%, 2.6 points below an average D1 matchup — worth roughly -3.7 points per 100 possessions.
GlassDartmouth
Dartmouth gets out-rebounded
Projected offensive rebound rate of 24.7% is worth roughly -3.5 points per 100 possessions against Dartmouth's offense.
TurnoversDartmouth
Dartmouth turns it over
Projected turnover rate of 19.0% is worth roughly -2.7 points per 100 possessions against Dartmouth's offense.
AdvantageMarist
Where Marist scores: ball control
Marist turns it over on 16.9% of possessions (#193); Dartmouth forces turnovers on 13.8% of opponent possessions (#340). Expect about 14.9%, 1.8 points below an average D1 matchup — worth roughly +2.3 points per 100 possessions.
Watch for noise
3-point caution
A notable season 3-point number here (Marist'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 Dartmouth at about 45.1% of its shots from three, Marist about 35.4%.
ClashDartmouth
Strength vs strength: 3-point shooting
Dartmouth (#51 in 3-point shooting) against Marist (#2 in the same stat allowed) — both rank inside the national top 60. Expect about 33.5%. Historically Dartmouth's own number has carried a bit more weight in that exchange (0.25 vs 0.16).

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.
