ANALYSIS:
They're far from the worst of the worst, but Yale should not be a terribly frightening opponent for most clubs. Their record this season is 16-15, and the club is ranked 208th overall (out of 351) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. Of the eight schools in the Ivy League (average ranking 202.8), they're currently ranked as our #5 team in the conference.

Defensively, Yale finds itself in the lower half of our ratings. The team is ranked 238th in defensive efficiency, giving up more than 105 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Yale does a less-than-adequate job to prevent opponents from scoring off of the offensive glass. The team allows AO to convert 7.8% of all second-chance opportunities (264th nationally).

Though they rate better on offense than they do on defense, Yale still isn't one of the more capable offensive teams in college hoops. Scoring roughly 101 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #184 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Yale has some difficulty protecting the ball efficiently when in possession, which leads to some quick and easy baskets for the opposition. The team's rating for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals vs. AO is 12.94, which ranks 318th in D1. If Yale does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to convert efficiently from the inside. The squad makes 65.0% of their near-proximity field goal attempts vs. AO, which ranks 39th in the country.
SORTABLE SCHEDULE / RESULTS:
Projections are based on present-day ratings. Stars indicate games played at a neutral location.
Game efficiencies only account for data before a contest has gone analytically final and are adjusted to extract home-court advantage.
CURIOUS TRENDS:
Yale performs better against squads that aren't terribly skilled defensively. When facing teams that have a defensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 105.20, Yale is more efficient than normal 100% of the time. In their other contests, the team is more efficient 25% of the time.
When playing teams that do not defend well on the perimeter, Yale usually performs better than average. Yale is more efficient than normal 100% of the time when facing clubs that have a defensive three-point field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 36.76%. In all other contests, Yale performs better than average 33% of the time.
Yale is typically better vs. teams that allow opponents to shoot well from the field. Against foes that have a defensive field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 45.18%, Yale performs above their norm 93% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 27% of the time.
