Oweh- From here on out

[ThroughBlue]

How strong would be individually have to finish to get SEC POY?

Currently averaging during conference 20.6 pts 4.2 rebs 2.3 assist 1.9 steals

37% from 3, 49% overall

What are the stats of his biggest competition? I haven’t followed the league real close this year

 

[JonathanW2]

Actually, I think it will have more to do with how UK finishes the season. If we aren't in top 4 teams, he won't get it. And really, it may go to the best player on the 1st or 2nd place team.

He’s playing at a level needed to win for sure. It probably depends how high we finish. If we challenge for the SEC late into the season he will get it probably.

20 and 8. Win the SEC. He will win the Chroix seal of approval at least.

I suspect Chinyelu has it locked up. However, if we win out or somehow grab a share of regular season title with OO averaging 20 ppg then he'll probably get the nod.

His SEC stats are great but, overall, he's #13 in the SEC in scoring average. I'd say he has little chance of POY. It will probably be either Philon or Acuff, who are both averaging over 20 ppg. Hough has to be a contender as well since he's probably the best player in the league.

Oweh might not make First Team, there’s still some “dudes” in the SEC this season. However, I hope he does

SEC player of the year only counts SEC games. Has nothing to do with out of conference games. He’s right there and has a great shot.

 

[SandyBell'sFaxMachine]

He has the most 20 point games in the SEC. If he leads us to winning the SEC I'd say he has a good shot.

He has been incredible over the past month.

When you filter down to just SEC play, Oweh's stats look a lot different.

well going off of sec numbers it would be ament, then acuff

And Oweh took both of them down. He don’t have to change anything. We win the sec he will win. Either of those teams win and they will.

Then Ament had one hell of a game this week, because out of ppg, apg, rpg and turnovers, Oweh led in 3 of 4.

Not counting this weeks games:

Ament
PPG: 18.5
RPG: 5.6
APG: 2.1
TPG: 2.4

Oweh
PPG: 20.2
RPG: 4.3
APG: 2.3
TPG: 1.5

That is quite correct in theory. The reality is some of the voters don't know nearly as much about it as the average poster on this board. I hope Otega gets the recognition he deserves but I think it would be hard to find somebody that's not a UK fan that would vote him SEC POY, at least right now.

 

[Btoddisabish]

The stats posted in the op are for conference play only

 

[bleedsblue5]

If he helps us win the sec I'll make sure he wins it. I don't know how, but my Twitter fingers will be workin

 

[JustBlue]

I don't think he'll get SEC POY but I can definitely see him making 1st team all SEC.
