ANALYSIS: Per this website's calculations, Hofstra is somewhere between an average to slightly above-average D1 ball-club. Ranked 159th overall (out of 357) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 13-10. They are also ranked by this site as the #4 team (out of 10) in the Colonial (average ranking 196.6).
If there is a strength for Hofstra this year, it's probably on the offensive end of the court. The team is rated 119th in offensive efficiency, scoring more than 102 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Hofstra does a pretty solid job of scoring points off of offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team successfully converts 5.9% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 81st nationally).
Unfortunately, Hofstra is not even remotely close to being as good on defense as they are on offense. The team is ranked 270th in defensive efficiency, allowing about 104 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Hofstra struggles on occasion to deny opponents opportunities to shoot from the floor. The team is ranked 325th in the nation in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 85.77 vs. AO. Hofstra has also done a pretty poor job this season to prevent opponents from making shots from the inside. The team is ranked 313th in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on 63.7% of their attempts from close-up. If Hofstra does have a bright spot on defense, it would have to be their success preventing opponents from getting to the free throw line. The team has a defensive free throw attempt rate of 21.05 vs. AO, which ranks 48th-best in the country.
Hofstra is one of the most consistent teams in NCAA basketball (currently ranked 16th in consistency), which makes the outcomes of their upcoming games far easier to predict.
