According to NatStat, among 349 D1 schools currently:
In O-PPP, the Sweet 16 are:
UConn 1
Oregon 2
Baylor 3
MSSt 4
Central Michigan 6
Notre Dame 7
ORSt 10
Louisville 15
Texas A&M 19
Texas 22
South Carolina 24
UCLA 24
Duke 47
Buffalo 54
Stanford 94
NCSt 100
In D-PPP, the Sweet 16 are:
UConn 1
Baylor 3
MSSt 11
Louisville 14
NCSt 18
Buffalo 22
Duke 25
Texas 43
SCar 45
ORSt 48
Stanford 75
UCLA 85
Oregon 101
Notre Dame 113
Texas A&M 216
Central Michigan 268
Someone more motivated than I could calculate [(O-PPP) - (D-PPP)] for each team using the actual metrics, and thus rank the teams by point margin per possession. UConn would clearly be first and Baylor second. |

What a coincidence. Her Hoop Stats offers this very statistic, which I call Point Margin Per Possession, but they've multiplied it by 100 to present it as point margin per 100 possessions.

| Once NatStat (formerly WBB State) began computing the tempo neutral scoring statistics of offensive points per possession (O-PPP) and defensive points per possession (D-PPP), I immediately thought it would be valuable to subtract the latter from the former to produce Point Margin Per Possession. To me, it's a much more informative statistic than MOV because it takes game pace out of the calculation, thereby putting fast breaking/high scoring teams and slow tempo/low scoring teams on an equal per possession metric. |

Great stuff ... a question: How many possessions, on average, does a college team get per game?
And what's the bottom five and top five look like?

Her Hoop Stats has possessions per 40 minutes, which should be pretty close to possessions per game. Looks like the average is about 70.
