ANALYSIS:
Holy Cross is not one of the better teams in Division I this year. They have a record of 10-23 and are ranked 343rd overall (out of 362) in the latest Haslametrics ratings. Of the 10 schools in the Patriot League (average ranking 290.2), they're currently ranked as our #9 team in the conference.

Defense is the farthest thing from a strength for Holy Cross this year. The team ranks third from the bottom in defensive efficiency, allowing more than 118 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Holy Cross does an extremely poor job to deny the opposition behind the arc. They rank fourth from the bottom nationally in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make 39.1% of their attempts from afar. Holy Cross is also extremely underskilled to force steals that turn into quick and easy points. They're ranked #359 in potential points off of breakaway steals with a rating of only 6.71 vs. AO. Holy Cross lastly allows the opposition to get off far too many shots from the floor. The team is ranked 344th in the nation in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 90.01 vs. AO.

Though they rate better on offense than they do on defense, Holy Cross still isn't one of the more capable offensive teams in college hoops. Scoring roughly 98 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #298 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Holy Cross does an extremely poor job drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 21.42 vs. AO, they are 343rd in the overall rankings for that category. Holy Cross is also not one of the better teams when it comes to sinking foul shots. Converting just 66.5% of their attempts, the squad is ranked #335 overall in free throw percentage.

Holy Cross is one of the most consistent teams in NCAA basketball (currently ranked 25th in consistency), which makes the outcomes of their upcoming games far easier to predict.
