ANALYSIS: They're far from the worst of the worst, but Wofford should not be a terribly frightening opponent for most clubs. Ranked 216th overall (out of 363) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 17-16. Of the 10 schools in the Southern (average ranking 210.0), they're currently ranked as our #5 team in the conference.
The primary strength for Wofford this year is offense. The team is ranked 100th in efficiency on that end of the floor, and they'll rack up more than 106 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Wofford will make a strong effort to get off as many field goals close to the basket as they can. The ball-club is 27th in the NCAA in ratio of near-proximity attempts to total field goal attempts. As far as converting those near-proximity shots goes, the team shoots 60.0% vs. AO, which falls somewhere in the middle of the pack of the rankings in that category. Wofford also has a keen ability to drain field goals between the three-point line and the low post. The squad is ranked 40th nationally in mid-range field goal percentage, making about 41.5% of their attempts from those locations vs. AO.
Unfortunately, Wofford is not even remotely close to being as good on defense as they are on offense. The team is ranked 323rd in defensive efficiency, allowing about 110 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Wofford allows opposing teams far too many easy chances from the floor, ranking in the bottom-50 in three of the four main defensive field goal shooting categories. They are exceptionally deficient defending inside the three-point line, allowing AO to make good on 44.7% of their mid-range jumpers (sixth from the bottom in the nation), 63.1% of their near-proximity chances (319th), and 47.7% of their total shots from the field (346th). Wofford also does a pretty inadequate job to provide chances for themselves to score quickly off of steals. They're ranked #320 in potential points off of breakaway steals with a rating of only 8.02 vs. AO. If Wofford does have a bright spot on defense, it would have to be their success preventing opponents from getting to the free throw line. The team has a defensive free throw attempt rate of 21.36 vs. AO, which ranks 41st-best in the country.
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.
