ANALYSIS:
Columbia has a squad that most likely falls somewhere in the bottom half of NCAA Division I teams this year. Carrying a record of 10-18, they are currently rated #219 overall (out of 353) in All-Play Percentage this season. They are also ranked by this site as the worst team (out of eight) in the Ivy League (average ranking 158.3).

Columbia does not have a terribly exceptional defense this year. Rated at #214 in defensive efficiency, they allow around 106 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Columbia commits too many fouls, which leads to plentiful free throw attempts for the opposition. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 29.78 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #309 in the country in that category.

Columbia doesn't rate much better on offense than they do on defense. Scoring roughly 101 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #206 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Columbia does an extremely poor job drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 19.51 vs. AO, they are tenth from the bottom in the overall rankings for that category.

Columbia has been playing much better basketball as of late and is presently ranked 22nd in positive momentum because of it.
