Here's what the magic Google AI machine says....A few days ago the Celtics set an NBA record with an effective shooting % of 80.8%.
I believe tOSU’s number tonight is 82.4%, by going 34 of 51 with 16 makes from 3-point land. Might be a B1G record, probably not an NCAA one.
The Big Ten Conference record for the best team field goal percentage in a single game is 73.3%.
This historic performance was achieved by Michigan in a game against Western Michigan on December 8, 1984. The Wolverines made 44 of their 60 shots to secure the record.
Other notable high-efficiency performances in Big Ten men's basketball history include:
- 71.4%: Ohio State vs. Wisconsin, 1970 (30 of 42 field goals).
- 71.1%: Indiana vs. Minnesota, 1982 (32 of 45 field goals).
- 70.2%: Purdue vs. Illinois, 1990 (40 of 57 field goals).
But I gotta say, 34/51 is literally 67%....but I don't math a ton and stuff....
