ANALYSIS: Creighton is a borderline top-25 caliber squad that should be able to remain competitive with most, if not all, teams in the country. Their record this season is 25-10, and the club is ranked 29th overall (out of 351) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #3 team (out of 10) in the Big East (average ranking 56.5).
Creighton has a reasonably potent offensive attack. Occupying the #29 slot in our offensive efficiency rankings, they will score about 114 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Creighton is a very dangerous team when it comes to shooting the rock, ranking in the top-25 in three of our four major field goal categories. They convert 41.4% of their three-pointers (third in the nation), 67.9% of their near-proximity attempts (13th), and 51.0% of their total shots from the field (third) vs. AO. Creighton also does a pretty good job of protecting the ball when they have possession and not allowing quick and easy baskets off of their own turnovers. The team's rating vs. AO for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals is 8.95, which ranks #34 in the country. If Creighton does have a weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's difficulties obtaining second-chance opportunities from offensive rebounds. The squad only has a rating of 10.72 vs. AO in potential points off of second chances, which ranks 28th-worst in college hoops.
Creighton plays at roughly the same level defensively as they do offensively. The team ranks 44th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 94 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Creighton does an outstanding job shutting down the opposition from behind the arc. They rank 17th in the NCAA in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make just 30.9% of their attempts from afar. Creighton also does a pretty solid job avoiding careless fouls and minimizing opponents' opportunities from the free throw line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 22.24 vs. AO, they are currently rated 26th in the country in that category.
Creighton has definitely not been as efficient as of late compared to earlier in the season and, consequently, the team is nationally ranked 327th in positive momentum.
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:
Creighton performs worse against squads that convert more frequently off of offensive rebounds. When facing teams that have an offensive second-chance conversion percentage vs. AO greater than 6.86%, Creighton is more efficient than normal 33% of the time. In their other contests, the team is more efficient 77% of the time.
When playing teams that are more proficient at draining the mid-range shot, Creighton usually performs worse than average. Creighton is more efficient than normal 31% of the time when facing clubs that have an offensive mid-range field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 38.25%. In all other contests, Creighton performs better than average 67% of the time.
Creighton is typically better vs. teams that fail to defend efficiently inside the paint. Against foes that have a defensive near-proximity field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 56.21%, Creighton performs above their norm 61% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 27% of the time.
