ANALYSIS: They're far from the worst of the worst, but N. Colorado should not be a terribly frightening opponent for most clubs. Carrying a record of 14-15, they are currently rated #262 overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage this season. Of the 12 schools in the Big Sky (average ranking 243.3), they're currently ranked as our #6 team in the conference.
N. Colorado succeeds primarily through their offense. They are ranked 92nd in offensive efficiency and score in excess of 104 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. N. Colorado has one of the better squads in the college game when it comes to maximizing opportunities to score. The team is ranked 30th in the NCAA in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 85.70 vs. AO. As far as making those field goal attempts goes, the team is somewhat middle-of-the-road, converting about 44.3% of them vs. AO. If N. Colorado does have a weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's poor shooting at the line. The squad makes just 65.1% of their free throw attempts, which ranks 50th-worst in Division I.
Sadly for N. Colorado, the drop-off from offensive efficiency to defensive efficiency is massive. The team is ranked fourth from the bottom in defensive efficiency, allowing about 116 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. N. Colorado allows the opposition far too many easy shots from the floor and ranks in the bottom-25 in three of our four major defensive field goal shooting categories. AO will convert a healthy 38.3% of their three-pointers (330th in the nation), 67.5% of their near-proximity attempts (seventh from the bottom), and 48.3% of their total shots from the field (336th).
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:
N. Colorado is typically worse vs. teams that tend to capitalize off breakaway opportunities. Against foes that have a potential point rate off steals vs. AO greater than 10.48, N. Colorado performs above their norm 22% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 74% of the time.
When facing teams that convert more frequently off of offensive rebounds, N. Colorado often performs worse than normal. N. Colorado is more efficient than usual 40% of the time when facing teams that have an offensive second-chance conversion percentage vs. AO greater than 5.52%. In their other contests, N. Colorado performs better than the norm 77% of the time.
