ANALYSIS: Purdue is one of the most elite and successful teams in college basketball this year. They have a record of 34-5 and are ranked third overall (out of 362) in the latest Haslametrics ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the best team (out of 14) in the Big Ten (average ranking 54.7). Sporting a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.766 (the second-highest in the country), Purdue has prepared themselves by challenging some of the best teams in the college game.
Purdue is undoubtedly one of the best in the business on offense. The team is rated second in offensive efficiency, scoring more than 124 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Purdue does a super job in their efforts to get to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of 34.92 vs. AO, they are ranked second in the nation at getting to the charity stripe, where the team shoots a rather mediocre 72.0%. Purdue is also an outstanding shooting team, capable of converting from a variety of locations on the floor and ranking in the top-50 in each of our four most noteworthy field goal categories. The long-ball may be their strength (40.9% from three vs. AO, second in the nation), but the team also makes 66.8% of their near-proximity shots (seventh), 42.8% of their mid-range chances (39th), and 50.5% of their total shots from the field (fifth) vs. AO. Purdue lastly does an outstanding job finishing any scoring chances they obtain from offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team successfully converts 8.7% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked third nationally), and with a rating of 18.81, they're ninth in potential points scored off of the offensive glass as well.
The frightening part is that Purdue is nearly as dominant on the defensive end of the floor as they are on the offensive side of things. The team ranks seventh nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 92 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Purdue is a superior unit when it comes to preventing opponents from getting to the foul line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 17.37 vs. AO, they are currently rated second in the country in that category. Purdue will also do a number on many an opponent's shooting percentage, as the team ranks in the top-25 in three of our four major defensive field goal categories. They'll inflict the most harm on the outside, allowing AO to convert just 30.1% of their three-pointers (sixth in the nation), 33.6% of their mid-range chances (tenth), and 38.9% of their total shots from the field (eighth). If Purdue does exhibit a weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's propensity to allow too many shot attempts per trip. The squad has a rating of 89.38 in defensive field goal attempt rate vs. AO, which ranks 32nd-worst in college basketball.
When playing on the road, Purdue performs somewhat worse than they normally do on their home court. The club is nationally ranked 326th in our site's away-from-home metric.
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:
Purdue performs worse against squads that are typically efficient on offense. When facing teams that have an offensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 111.79, Purdue is more efficient than normal 24% of the time. In their other contests, the team is more efficient 79% of the time.
When playing teams that aren't terribly skilled defensively, Purdue usually performs better than average. Purdue is more efficient than normal 73% of the time when facing clubs that have a defensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 100.16. In all other contests, Purdue performs better than average 25% of the time.
Purdue is typically worse vs. teams that convert well from outside the arc. Against foes that have an offensive three-point field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 35.44%, Purdue performs above their norm 28% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 71% of the time.
