ANALYSIS:
Regardless of what the win percentage says, PV A&M isn't a very good team this year. Ranked 242nd overall (out of 353) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 22-13. Of the 10 schools in the SWAC (average ranking 310.2), they're currently ranked as our #2 team in the conference.

PV A&M is not one of the better offensive teams you will find. They are rated #271 in efficiency on that end of the court and only score about 97 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. PV A&M has been below-average more times than not when shooting three-pointers this year. They are ranked 291st in three-point field goal percentage nationally and make just 32.2% of their attempts from long vs. AO. If PV A&M does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's care for the ball. The squad has a rating of 9.42 in potential points allowed off of steals vs. AO, which ranks 35th in the college game.

Though they rate better on defense than they do on offense, PV A&M still isn't one of the more capable defensive teams in college hoops. Allowing roughly 105 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #194 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 31.95 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #343 in the country in that category. PV A&M also fares terribly when attempting to stop opponents from converting from the inside. The team is ranked 342nd in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on 67.1% of their attempts from close-up. PV A&M is lastly 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 7.9% of all second-chance opportunities (331st nationally). 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 76.58 vs. AO, which ranks fifth-best in college basketball.

In all other contests, PV A&M performs better than average 75% of the time.
PV A&M is typically worse vs. teams that aren't terribly skilled defensively. Against foes that have a defensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 106.35, PV A&M performs above their norm 33% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 75% of the time.
When facing teams that do not defend well on the perimeter, PV A&M often performs worse than normal. PV A&M is more efficient than usual 42% of the time when facing teams that have a defensive three-point field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 34.20%.
