Here are the 10 NU lineups which have played the most minutes against the Big Ten this season...
Just throwing the info out there. We have no regular lineup that doesn't include both Audige and Buie. Buie has played almost 96% of the Big Ten minutes and Audige 92%, excluding some garbage time.
That makes it difficult to evaluate how the team performs without them.
However, we can say that all the lineups without Buie have played 4.1% of the minutes ( scoring a mere 30 points and allowing 43 in about 27 minutes).
With Audige on the bench, we have outscored our opponents 92-79 over 51 minutes, which equates to a 40 minute pace of 72.4 - 62.1.
But there's no reason to expect Audige to be getting any more rest in the upcoming games. The data says it would probably help.
It seems worth noting that the 3-guard lineups that have Verhoeven at center and either Beran or Barnhizer at the 4 have been thrashed to the tune of 159 - 188.
However, if Verhoeven is the 5, with Barnhizer at the 3 and either Martinelli or Beran at the 4, we have outscored our opponents 94 - 84.
The lineups with Nicholson, Berry, Audige and Buie and either Barnhizer or Beran at the 4 have outscored our opponents 346 - 311.
