Ole Miss season averages: 3-point FG = .348
all FG = .438
FT = .784
vs. U.K. 3-point FG = .529 on 17 3-point shots
all FG = .492 on 42 2-point shots
FT = .864 on 22 free throws
This game was close primarily because Ole Miss scored an additional 15.317 points vs. U.K. attributable solely to higher shooting percentages.
Any reasonably good team that shoots that much better than their season averages is going to be hard to beat -- anytime, anywhere.
Just MHO, of course.
