ANALYSIS: St. Bonaventure is a fairly decent basketball team that, while likely better than average, isn't quite good enough to crack any top-25 rankings this year. Their record this season is 18-13, and the club is ranked 123rd overall (out of 351) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #8 team (out of 14) in the A-10 (average ranking 120.8).
St. Bonaventure will mainly try to find success through their defense. They are ranked 90th in defensive efficiency and allow fewer than 97 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. St. Bonaventure does a pretty solid job providing themselves chances to score quickly off of steals. They're ranked 28th in potential points off of breakaway steals vs. AO with a rating of 14.33.
St. Bonaventure is also a fairly decent team on the offensive end of the court. The team ranks 148th nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 101 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. St. Bonaventure is fairly competent protecting the ball on offense, which minimizes opportunities for the opponent to score quickly off of steals. The team's rating vs. AO for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals is 9.98, which ranks #65 in the country. If St. Bonaventure does have a weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's ability (or lack thereof) to sink threes. The squad converts just 31.3% of their three-point attempts vs. AO, which ranks 43rd-worst in the nation.
St. Bonaventure has been playing better basketball in their most recent outings, as evidenced by the team's #47 ranking in positive momentum. St. Bonaventure has also been one of the most erratic teams in college basketball this year (currently ranked 337th overall in consistency), which makes the outcomes of their future games far more difficult to predict. When playing on the road, St. Bonaventure has played their best basketball this season. The team is currently ranked 20th in the country in the away-from-home metric our site tracks.
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.
