ANALYSIS:
Despite having a win percentage north of .500, NC A&T is definitely a below-average ball-club in college hoops this year. Carrying a record of 20-15, they are currently rated #320 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 #5 team in the conference. With a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.239 (which ranks third from the bottom nationally), NC A&T has had one of the cushiest slates in all of college basketball.

NC A&T is not one of the better offensive teams you will find. They are rated #311 in efficiency on that end of the court and only score about 94 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. NC A&T is one of the least accurate teams when shooting from long-distance. They are ranked third from the bottom in three-point field goal percentage nationally and make just 28.0% of their attempts from long vs. AO. NC A&T is also one of the more inferior teams in the college game when it comes to maximizing opportunities to score on offense. The team is nationally ranked 323rd in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of only 78.25 vs. AO.

NC A&T doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 109 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #302 in the nation in defensive efficiency. NC A&T is one of the very worst teams in the game when it comes to preventing opponents from scoring off of offensive rebounds. The team allows AO to convert 9.3% of all second-chance opportunities (eighth from the bottom nationally), and with a rating of 17.03, they're 313th in potential points surrendered off of the offensive boards as well. NC A&T also allows opposing teams far too many easy chances from the floor, ranking in the bottom-50 in three of the four main defensive field goal shooting categories. They are exceptionally deficient defending inside the three-point line, allowing AO to make good on 40.5% of their mid-range jumpers (308th in the nation), 65.4% of their near-proximity chances (318th), and 48.1% of their total shots from the field (312th).
