In response to Charlie Fog
I disagree with Mike about the small-sample business. We can directly see the change in the kind of shots Princeton got during periods when the opponent picked up its defense. We can actually see the low-percentage shots and turnovers coming off of bad drives. We can also see some of the defensive problems come from committing turnovers, from having blocked shots bounce to opponents heading the other way, etc.
That said, the defense really has been pretty bad for a good fraction of the season, with opponents being able to penetrate and to move the ball with impunity on way too many possessions.
