This is true. I’d love to see Holman and Peters stats against tourney teams vs. their stats against weaker competition.
I looked it up...
Holman’s games where he had 12 points or more, which is what I think we’d like to have from him to make a run:
Hartford
Arizona State (22 pts/10 rebs)
Clemson
Wofford
Wright St
BYU (28 & 8)
@ SC (20 & 10)
@ Bama
LSU
TAMU
Games where he scored 7 or
less:
Alcorn (6)
@ Dayton (3)
Cincinnati (7)
@ Kentucky (0)
Auburn (7)
@ OM (0)
Kentucky (3)
Bama (0)
@ Ark (3)
@ UGA (3)
Mizzou (0)
Tennessee (5)
So, After looking at it I don’t know if there’s any correlation to level of competition, or just bad matchups for him, or if he’s just faded for a while.
He played well against some good teams (Clemson, ASU, Wofford early in the year), then was awful against some bad teams (Mizzou, Ark) late in the year. Who knows?
