ANALYSIS:
Alabama A&M is not one of the better teams in Division I this year. They are ranked #341 (out of 362) in the most recent Haslametrics ratings and have a record of 12-23. Of the 12 schools in the SWAC (average ranking 319.3), they're currently ranked as our #10 team in the conference.

Alabama A&M has a very tough time coming by points on offense. Scoring about 92 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are woefully ranked #351 in offensive efficiency. Alabama A&M happens to be one of the very worst in the game when it comes to maximizing the number of shot attempts they get off from the floor. The team is nationally ranked third from the bottom in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of only 79.65 vs. AO. Alabama A&M also shoots dreadfully from the floor and ranks in the bottom-25 in three of our four major field goal shooting categories. They only convert 28.4% of their three-pointers (fifth from the bottom in the nation), 50.2% of their near-proximity attempts (351st), and 39.9% of their total shots from the field (342nd) vs. AO. Alabama A&M lastly tends to be very careless with the ball and allows far too many breakaway opportunities off of their own turnovers. The team's rating for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals vs. AO is 16.30, which ranks fifth from the bottom in D1. If Alabama A&M does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to get to the free throw line. The squad has a free throw attempt rate of 30.33 vs. AO, which ranks 34th in the country.

Alabama A&M doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 112 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #313 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Alabama A&M fouls far too much and sends the opposition to the line way too often. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 34.73 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #359 in the country in that category. Alabama A&M also gives up far too many offensive rebounds and second chances to their opponents. The club has a rating of 17.15 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (seventh from the bottom nationally).

Alabama A&M has been playing much better basketball as of late and is presently ranked seventh in positive momentum because of it. When playing on the road, Alabama A&M performs somewhat worse than they normally do on their home court. The club is nationally ranked 315th in our site's away-from-home metric.
