ANALYSIS: A borderline top-25 caliber team, Arizona will almost certainly present a challenging task for any Division I opponent. Ranked 27th overall (out of 351) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 32-5. They are also ranked by this site as the #3 team (out of 12) in the Pac-12 (average ranking 97.8).
Arizona has a reasonably potent offensive attack. Occupying the #26 slot in our offensive efficiency rankings, they will score about 114 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Arizona does a super job in their efforts to get to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of 32.93 vs. AO, they are ranked 12th in the nation at getting to the charity stripe. In addition, the team is in the top-50 in free throw shooting, converting a solid 75.5% of their attempts. Arizona is also an outstanding shooting team, capable of converting from a variety of locations on the floor and ranking in the top-50 in each of our four most noteworthy field goal categories. They make 38.7% of their three-pointers (33rd in the nation), 40.4% of their mid-range jumpers (23rd), 66.0% of their near-proximity chances (38th), and 49.0% of their total shots from the field (19th) vs. AO.
Arizona plays at roughly the same level defensively as they do offensively. The team ranks 31st nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 93 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Arizona does a fantastic job to prevent opposing teams from capitalizing on chances from offensive rebounds. The squad allows AO to convert only 4.6% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 14th in the NCAA), and with a rating of 12.43, they're 34th in potential points allowed off of the offensive glass as well. Arizona also does an outstanding job shutting down the opposition from behind the arc. They rank 16th in the NCAA in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make just 30.9% of their attempts from afar.
Arizona is one of the more consistent teams in Division I (presently ranked 50th in consistency), so forecasting the outcomes of their future contests tends to be easier than the norm.
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.
