More stats of the day--Kansas' offensive efficiency

The following information appeared on today's kusports.com website, further illustrating the incredibly efficient Kansas offense against Missouri on Monday night.

The 1.45 points per possession versus MU was the Jayhawks' highest total of the season against any team. And, it was the most points per possession scored against a Missouri team in the past 15 years. The only team during that time period to top 1.40 points per possession against Missouri was the 2001-2001 Kansas team, which featured future NBA players Drew Gooden, Kirk Hinrich and Nick Collison, and had guys like Wayne Simien and Keith Langford off of the bench.

In the second half of Monday's game, KU scored 1.67 PPP off of 34 possessions. No Division 1 team has scored 1.67 PPP in a game all season--not even against an opponent from a lower division.

Efficient? I'd say so.
