ANALYSIS: Morgan State presently has one of the below-average teams in college basketball. Carrying a record of 13-19, they are currently rated #327 overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage this season. Of the 13 schools in the MEAC (average ranking 326.6), they're currently ranked as our #7 team in the conference. With a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.240 (which ranks fourth from the bottom nationally), Morgan State has had one of the cushiest slates in all of college basketball.
Morgan State is not one of the most productive teams on offense. Scoring fewer than 92 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are rated at #326 in offensive efficiency. Morgan State shoots dreadfully from the floor and ranks in the bottom-25 in three of our four major field goal shooting categories. They only convert 29.6% of their three-pointers (sixth from the bottom in the nation), 51.7% of their near-proximity attempts (tenth from the bottom), and 39.3% of their total shots from the field (341st) vs. AO. If Morgan State does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to get to the free throw line. The squad has a free throw attempt rate of 29.24 vs. AO, which ranks 50th in the country.
Morgan State doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 110 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #313 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Morgan State fouls far too much and sends the opposition to the line way too often. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 31.56 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #331 in the country in that category. Morgan State also gives up too many chances to easily score off of offensive rebounds. The team allows AO to convert 8.8% of all second-chance opportunities (323rd nationally).
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:
