Worrisome trend with MBB scores this year.
Given the marked decrease in the margin of victory over the first two opponents (a NCCAA DII school and then an NCAA DIII school) I made a quick spreadsheet and did a best-fit line to see how this is predicted to play out for the next 27 games.
It appears that if the trend continues the margin of victory will soon become the margin of defeat and by game 29 of the season will will lose this game by 1663 points. I wish that was not a typo but it is 1663.
Here is the link to the Google Sheets were I did the work. Someone check my math please.

If App ever loses a basketball game by 1,000 points I will tear down the Holmes Center myself.

Re: Worrisome trend with MBB scores this year.
But you are OK with losing by 1663 I assume.
