BG #12 in nation in blocked shots per game

Seems like BG has been blocking a lot of shots lately...so far, they are 12th in the nation in blocked shots at 6.7 per game.  Interestingly, that equals out to 2nd in the MAC, as EMU is #3.  St. John's is the #1 team at 9.9 blocks per game.

On an individual basis, Holmes is #12 in the nation as well...with 3.5 blocks per game for the season as a whole. He trails Da'Shonte Riley of EMU in the MAC standings.

For a tempo-free perspective, BG is actually #10 in blocked shot% (taking into account the number of possessions the team has faced--ie, the number of opportunities to block shots).  EMU, which plays at a famously glacial pace, is #2 in the nation on this measure.
