ANALYSIS: They may not cause sleepless nights for opponents, but Nebraska, as a slightly above-average team, cannot be totally ignored. Ranked 104th overall (out of 351) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 12-19. They are also ranked by this site as the #13 team (out of 14) in the Big Ten (average ranking 55.9). Sporting a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.772 (the 11th-highest in the country), Nebraska has prepared themselves by challenging some of the best teams in the college game.
Nebraska will mainly try to find success through their defense. They are ranked 88th in defensive efficiency and allow fewer than 98 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Nebraska has been pretty good preventing teams from hitting shots in the paint. They are ranked 52nd in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on only 54.9% of their attempts from close-up. If Nebraska does exhibit a weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's inability to stop opponents from sinking threes. AO will convert 38.2% of their three-point attempts, and the team ranks 48th-worst in that category because of it.
Nebraska plays at about the same level on offense as they do on defense. The team ranks 129th nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 103 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Nebraska appears to be one of the top-notch offensive rebounding teams you will find this year. Against AO, the squad has a rating of 18.82 in potential points scored off of second chances (ranked 13th in the NCAA), and they convert 8.2% of their second-chance opportunities (ranked 43rd) as well. Nebraska also loves taking the mid-range two, far more so than most other teams. The club is ranked 25th in ratio of mid-range attempts to total field goal attempts. That being said, though they shoot a fair amount of in-between jumpers, they don't really make a whole lot of them and convert just 33.6% of their mid-range attempts vs. AO.
Nebraska has definitely not been as efficient as of late compared to earlier in the season and, consequently, the team is nationally ranked fifth from the bottom 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.
