ANALYSIS:
As an average to slightly above-average foe, Drexel should probably not be discounted by opponents this year. Their record this season is 15-14, and the club is ranked 158th overall (out of 358) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #5 team (out of 10) in the Colonial (average ranking 182.1).

If there is a strength for Drexel this year, it's probably on the offensive end of the court. The team is rated 136th in offensive efficiency, scoring more than 102 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Drexel has a keen ability to drain field goals between the three-point line and the low post. The squad is ranked 36th nationally in mid-range field goal percentage, making about 41.6% of their attempts from those locations vs. AO. The team will take a fair amount of shots from those in-between locations, too. Approximately 32.0% of their attempts vs. AO are of the mid-range variety, which puts the team in the top-75 in that category nationally. Drexel also has one of the better squads in the college game when it comes to maximizing opportunities to score. The team is ranked 44th in the NCAA in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 86.79 vs. AO. As far as making those field goal attempts goes, the team is somewhat middle-of-the-road, converting about 44.6% of them vs. AO.

Drexel doesn't perform as well defensively as they do offensively. The team is ranked 187th in defensive efficiency, allowing about 101 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Drexel hasn't done terribly well defending the mid-range jumper. The squad is ranked 297th nationally in defensive mid-range field goal percentage, allowing AO to make good on 40.7% of their attempts from those in-between spots on the floor. Making matters worse, AO will take advantage of that weakness and put up mid-range shots in abundance. Of AO's total field goals, a huge portion of them (33.1%) will be from those in-between locations.

Drexel is one of the most consistent teams in NCAA basketball (currently ranked third in consistency), which makes the outcomes of their upcoming games far easier to predict.
