Pace & total

Tempo, possessions per 40 minutes

Projected possessions: 65.5, from each team's opponent-adjusted tempo. On raw 2025-26 season pace, Marist is the faster team (66.5, #271 of 365) and Bryant the slower (64.4, #347). 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
AdvantageBryant
Where Bryant struggles: shooting
Bryant shoots an effective 46.9% (#340); Marist allows 45.6% (#5). Expect about 45.8%, 5.5 points below an average D1 matchup — worth roughly -7.8 points per 100 possessions.
TurnoversBryant
Bryant turns it over
Projected turnover rate of 20.5% is worth roughly -4.5 points per 100 possessions against Bryant's offense.
Pace
Half-court grind
Marist averages 66.5 possessions per 40, Bryant 64.4. 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.
Watch for noise
3-point caution
A notable season 3-point number here (Bryant, Marist's defense, Bryant'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 Bryant at about 44.5% of its shots from three, Marist about 33.2%.
ClashMarist
Style match: 3-point volume
Marist rarely shoots threes (34.6% of its shots); Bryant runs teams off the line (35.8% of shots allowed from three) (D1 average 39.5%). Expect about 33.2% — both habits push the same way.
GlassBryant
Bryant gets out-rebounded
Projected offensive rebound rate of 27.5% is worth roughly -1.8 points per 100 possessions against Bryant's offense.

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.
