ANALYSIS:
While this site doesn't quite consider them to be in the national title hunt, UMass has the potential to be a formidable opponent for many in Division I. Carrying a record of 20-11, they are currently rated #76 overall (out of 362) in All-Play Percentage this season. They are also ranked by this site as the #3 team (out of 15) in the A-10 (average ranking 121.2).

UMass has a reasonably potent offensive attack. Occupying the #67 slot in our offensive efficiency rankings, they will score about 112 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. UMass does a super job in their efforts to get to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of 30.87 vs. AO, they are ranked 25th in the nation at getting to the charity stripe. Unfortunately, they don't convert a ton of their free throws and make just 69.8% of their attempts. UMass has also established itself as a team that cleans the offensive glass quite well. Against AO, the squad has a rating of 17.44 in potential points scored off of second chances (ranked 26th in the NCAA).

UMass plays at roughly the same level defensively as they do offensively. The team ranks 106th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 102 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. UMass has done a really good job this year to prevent opponents from making shots from the inside. They are ranked 30th in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on only 52.5% of their attempts from close-up. And to capitalize on that weakness, this team will make AO shoot from the inside more than they usually would. Of AO's total field goals, a big portion of them (39.9%) will be from short-distance. UMass will also look to secure a relatively healthy number of easy scoring opportunities off of steals. They're ranked 72nd in potential points off of breakaway steals vs. AO with a rating of 13.57.
