ANALYSIS:
Baylor is one of the teams in the upper echelon of college basketball this year. Carrying a record of 24-11, they are currently rated #16 overall (out of 362) in All-Play Percentage this season. They are also ranked by this site as the #4 team (out of 14) in the Big 12 (average ranking 44.9). With a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.737 (which ranks eighth nationally), Baylor is one of the more battle-tested teams in the college game.

Baylor showcases one of the country's most efficient offenses. Racking up about 121 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, the team is nationally rated seventh in efficiency on that end of the floor. Baylor is a very dangerous team when it comes to shooting the rock, ranking in the top-25 in three of our four major field goal categories. They convert 39.7% of their three-pointers (fifth in the nation), 65.5% of their near-proximity attempts (18th), and 48.8% of their total shots from the field (14th) vs. AO. Baylor also does an outstanding job finishing any scoring chances they obtain from offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team successfully converts 8.3% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked ninth nationally), and with a rating of 16.68, they're 45th in potential points scored off of the offensive glass as well. Baylor lastly does a super job in their efforts to get to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of 32.57 vs. AO, they are ranked 12th in the nation at getting to the charity stripe, where the team shoots a rather mediocre 73.8%.

Baylor plays at roughly the same level defensively as they do offensively. The team ranks 53rd nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 99 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Baylor does a super job to deny opponents offensive rebounds and second chances. They have a rating of 10.14 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (ranked seventh in the country), and they allow AO to convert just 3.7% of their second-chance opportunities (ranked 11th) as well. Baylor also owns a pretty good track record against teams that shoot the three. They rank 51st in the NCAA in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make just 32.1% of their attempts from afar.

On the road, Baylor performs noticeably worse than they do at home. The team is currently ranked 348th in the country in the away-from-home metric we track.
