ANALYSIS:
Regardless of what the win percentage says, Navy isn't a very good team this year. They have a record of 20-12 and are ranked 260th overall (out of 351) in the latest Haslametrics ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #6 team (out of 10) in the Patriot League (average ranking 252.8). With a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.309 (which ranks 335th nationally), Navy has had one of the cushiest slates in all of college basketball.

Navy is not one of the most productive teams on offense. Scoring fewer than 95 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are rated at #293 in offensive efficiency. Navy won't enter the conversation if you're looking to list the best three-point shooting teams in the country. They are ranked 312th in three-point field goal percentage nationally and make just 32.1% of their attempts from long vs. AO. Navy also needs improvement when it comes to draining the mid-range shot. The team is ranked 303rd in field goal percentage from that distance, making only 33.7% of their mid-range attempts vs. AO.

Though they rate better on defense than they do on offense, Navy still isn't one of the more capable defensive teams in college hoops. Allowing roughly 104 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #199 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Navy fares terribly when attempting to stop opponents from converting from the inside. The team is ranked fourth from the bottom in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on 68.7% of their attempts from close-up. On a positive note, AO will take nowhere near as many inside shots as they typically would and, as a result, only 29.4% of AO's field goal attempts will come from short-distance. Navy also does a very lackluster job preventing opponents from draining threes. They rank 302nd nationally in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make 38.0% of their attempts from afar. If Navy does have a bright spot on defense, it would have to be their ability to limit the number of shot attempts by the opposition. The team has a defensive field goal attempt rate of 78.43 vs. AO, which ranks 37th-best in college basketball.

When playing on the road, Navy has played their best basketball this season. The team is currently ranked fourth in the country in the away-from-home metric our site tracks.
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:
When playing teams that allow a greater number of field goal opportunities, Navy usually performs better than average. Navy is more efficient than normal 89% of the time when facing clubs that have a defensive field goal attempt rate vs. AO greater than 83.37. In all other contests, Navy performs better than average 32% of the time.
Navy is typically better vs. teams that fail to defend efficiently inside the paint. Against foes that have a defensive near-proximity field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 62.28%, Navy performs above their norm 75% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 32% of the time.
When facing teams that aren't terribly skilled defensively, Navy often performs better than normal. Navy is more efficient than usual 71% of the time when facing teams that have a defensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 108.05. In their other contests, Navy performs better than the norm 29% of the time.
