ANALYSIS:
PV A&M is not one of the better teams in Division I this year. Haslametrics has them ranked 308th overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 15-18. They are also ranked by this site as the #5 team (out of 10) in the SWAC (average ranking 317.6). With a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.349 (which ranks 333rd in the nation), PV A&M has faced some of the easiest opponents in all of college basketball.

Offense is not the strong suit when it comes to PV A&M. The team is ranked 304th in offensive efficiency and scores fewer than 93 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. PV A&M does an extremely poor job drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 23.24 vs. AO, they are 337th in the overall rankings for that category. PV A&M also won't provide opponents much of a scare with their shooting percentage from the inside. The team is ranked 309th in near-proximity field goal percentage, making only 53.1% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO.

PV A&M doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 106 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #269 in the nation in defensive efficiency. PV A&M fouls far too much and sends the opposition to the line way too often. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 37.29 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #346 in the country in that category. PV A&M is also 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 9.4% of all second-chance opportunities (seventh from the bottom nationally), and with a rating of 18.96, they're 340th in potential points surrendered off of the offensive boards as well. PV A&M lastly fares terribly when attempting to stop opponents from converting from the inside. The team is ranked 331st in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on 65.3% of their attempts from close-up. If PV A&M 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 77.57 vs. AO, which ranks 27th-best in college basketball.
