ANALYSIS:
There are very few Division I teams, if any, that are as bad as Delaware State is this year. Ranked second from the bottom overall (out of 353) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 6-25. They are also ranked by this site as the worst team (out of 12) in the MEAC (average ranking 324.7). With a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.288 (which ranks seventh from the bottom nationally), Delaware State has had one of the cushiest slates in all of college basketball.

Delaware State has a very tough time coming by points on offense. Scoring about 82 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are woefully ranked #353 in offensive efficiency. Delaware State is downright awful shooting the basketball and can't hit from anywhere, shamefully ranking in the bottom-25 in each of the four major field goal shooting categories. They make just 28.1% of their three-pointers (ranking third from the bottom nationally), 27.5% of their mid-range attempts (last), 47.6% of their near-proximity chances (last), and 33.6% of their total shots from the field (last) vs. AO. Delaware State also does an extremely poor job drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 19.75 vs. AO, they are 337th in the overall rankings for that category. If Delaware State does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to successfully get off shots each possession. The squad has a field goal attempt rate of 87.61 vs. AO, which ranks #23 in college basketball.

Delaware State doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 114 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #337 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Delaware State allows opposing teams far too many easy chances from the floor, ranking in the bottom-50 in three of the four main defensive field goal shooting categories. AO will convert a healthy 37.2% of their three-pointers (309th in the nation), 66.6% of their near-proximity attempts (340th), and 47.6% of their total shots from the field (317th). Delaware State also fouls far too much and sends the opposition to the line way too often. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 31.15 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #336 in the country in that category.
