The instant reaction from the national media about No. 5 Wisconsin drawing No. 12 High Point was one of "wow, tough draw." Pundits were pointing to one specific stat on the metric sheet: the Panthers are the nation's third-highest scoring offense at 90 points a game. That's an electric offense that knows how to push the pace and score the rock. However, if you look into the game log, you can quickly see that the metric is inflated.
High Point has five games with 100+ scoring. Three of those teams are not Division-I.
127-52 win over Averett (D-III)
129-47 win over Mary Baldwin (D-III)
123-64 win over Pfeiffer (D-III)
104-49 win over Gardner-Webb
112-87 win over Gardner-Webb
High Point has three games where they went nuclear, but all were against D-III teams.
