ANALYSIS:
Per this website's calculations, Montana is somewhere between an average to slightly above-average D1 ball-club. Ranked 159th overall (out of 363) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 17-14. Of the 10 schools in the Big Sky (average ranking 208.8), they're currently ranked as our #3 team in the conference.

Montana has a reasonably potent offensive attack. Occupying the #99 slot in our offensive efficiency rankings and embracing a more deliberate, half-court style of play (the 21st-slowest pace in D1), they will score about 107 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Montana is deadly accurate at the free throw line. Making 79.8% of their attempts from the stripe, they are ranked fourth nationally in free throw percentage. Unfortunately, with a free throw attempt rate of just 23.41 vs. AO, they don't provide themselves a whole lot of opportunities at the foul line. Montana also has a keen ability to drain field goals between the three-point line and the low post. The squad is ranked 48th nationally in mid-range field goal percentage, making about 41.1% of their attempts from those locations vs. AO. If Montana does have a glaring weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's difficulties obtaining and converting second-chance opportunities from offensive rebounds. The squad has a second-chance conversion percentage of just 2.7% vs. AO, which ranks second-worst in the nation.

Unfortunately, Montana is not even remotely close to being as good on defense as they are on offense. The team is ranked 277th in defensive efficiency, allowing about 107 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Montana is extremely underskilled to force steals that turn into quick and easy points. They're ranked #357 in potential points off of breakaway steals with a rating of only 6.55 vs. AO. Montana also commits too many fouls, which leads to plentiful free throw attempts for the opposition. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 29.88 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #334 in the country in that category.
