ANALYSIS:
FAU 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. Carrying a record of 17-16, they are currently rated #163 overall (out of 353) in All-Play Percentage this season. They are also ranked by this site as the #9 team (out of 14) in Conference USA (average ranking 187.1).

FAU has a fairly effective defensive attack. Occupying the #83 slot in our defensive efficiency ratings, they will allow about 98 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. FAU does a fantastic job to prevent opposing teams from capitalizing on chances from offensive rebounds. The squad allows AO to convert only 4.4% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 23rd in the NCAA), and with a rating of 11.54, they're 30th in potential points allowed off of the offensive glass as well.

Unfortunately, FAU is not even remotely close to being as good on offense as they are on defense. The team is ranked 265th in offensive efficiency, scoring about 98 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. FAU has a hard time converting field goals attempts on offense. The team is rated #315 in the country in field goal percentage, making good on a meager 40.6% of their attempts vs. AO. If FAU does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's outstanding shooting at the charity stripe. The squad makes 75.8% of their free throw attempts, which ranks #34 in Division I.
