Imagine for a minute that the first half of our season and big 12 play were were shooting FTs like this
Kansas State was 21 of 25 from the free-throw line, 18 of 21 in the second half.
I think that we are not only closer in a lot of our losses, but pull out the win at OSU because we are able to put our foot on their throats. Even though the misses might not add up to a winning score, the mental anguish of missing those FTs plays into FG % as well. How many FGs did we miss because we didn't have a shooter mentality due to missed FTs?
