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 19-15, they are currently rated #130 overall (out of 358) in All-Play Percentage this season. They are also ranked by this site as the #6 team (out of 14) in Conference USA (average ranking 179.5).

Based on the data, FAU will likely find more success on offense than on defense. Scoring about 104 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, they currently occupy the #109 slot in the rankings for offensive efficiency. FAU is superb at converting jumpers in between the three-point stripe and the low post. The squad is ranked 15th nationally in mid-range field goal percentage, making about 42.9% of their attempts from those locations vs. AO. However, even with their high conversion rate on mid-range attempts, this team usually settles for shots from other spots on the floor. Only about 23.3% of their overall attempts vs. AO are from those in-between locations.

FAU is also a fairly decent team on the defensive end of the court. The team ranks 173rd nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 101 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. FAU does an adequate job to prevent opponents from scoring off of offensive rebounds. The squad allows AO to convert only 3.8% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 56th in the NCAA). FAU also has been doing fairly decent work to prevent opponents from getting off shots from the field. The club is ranked 74th in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 81.39 vs. AO. If FAU does exhibit a noticeable weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's inability to stop opponents from sinking threes. AO will convert 37.4% of their three-point attempts, and the team ranks 20th-worst in that category because of it.

When playing on the road, FAU performs somewhat worse than they normally do on their home court. The club is nationally ranked 332nd in our site's away-from-home metric.
SORTABLE SCHEDULE / RESULTS:
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.
CURIOUS TRENDS:
FAU does worse vs. clubs that allow more chances at the line. When playing squads that have a defensive free throw attempt rate vs. AO greater than 25.79, FAU never performs above average. Against all other opponents, the team performs better than the norm 55% of the time.
FAU performs better against squads that allow a higher number of conversions off of the offensive glass. When facing teams that have a defensive second-chance conversion percentage vs. AO greater than 5.16%, FAU is more efficient than normal 67% of the time. In their other contests, the team is more efficient 27% of the time.
When playing teams that allow a greater number of field goal opportunities, FAU usually performs better than average. FAU is more efficient than normal 53% of the time when facing clubs that have a defensive field goal attempt rate vs. AO greater than 82.50. In all other contests, FAU performs better than average 17% of the time.
