Pace & total

Tempo, possessions per 40 minutes

Projected possessions: 65.6, from each team's opponent-adjusted tempo. On raw 2025-26 season pace, Hampton is the faster team (66.0, #297 of 365) and Navy the slower (65.2, #327). 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
AdvantageHampton
Where Hampton struggles: shooting
Hampton shoots an effective 45.7% (#356); Navy allows 48.3% (#42). Expect about 46.5%, 4.8 points below an average D1 matchup — worth roughly -6.8 points per 100 possessions.
Pace
Half-court grind
Navy averages 65.2 possessions per 40, Hampton 66.0. 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 64 — more possessions mean more points in the total and more chances for the better team to separate.
ClashNavy
Style match: 3-point volume
Navy rarely shoots threes (33.1% of its shots); Hampton runs teams off the line (33.6% of shots allowed from three) (D1 average 39.5%). Expect about 30.6% — both habits push the same way.
AdvantageNavy
Where Navy scores: shooting
Navy shoots an effective 53.1% (#100); Hampton allows 52.0% (#212). Expect about 52.7%, 1.4 points above an average D1 matchup — worth roughly +2.0 points per 100 possessions.
Watch for noise
3-point caution
A notable season 3-point number here (Hampton, Navy'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 Hampton at about 41.8% of its shots from three, Navy about 30.6%.

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.
