ANALYSIS: Per this website's calculations, Utah Valley is somewhere between an average to slightly above-average D1 ball-club. They are ranked #140 (out of 358) in the most recent Haslametrics ratings and have a record of 20-12. They are also ranked by this site as the #6 team (out of 13) in the WAC (average ranking 193.9).
Utah Valley has a fairly effective defensive attack. Occupying the #100 slot in our defensive efficiency ratings, they will allow about 97 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Utah Valley does an outstanding job shutting down the opposition from behind the arc. They rank 18th in the NCAA in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make just 30.1% of their attempts from afar. Utah Valley has also had some success this season preventing opponents from converting many of their overall field goal attempts. The team ranks #72 nationally in field goal percentage allowed, as AO only makes good on about 41.2% of their total attempts from the floor. If Utah Valley does exhibit a weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's unwillingness to take risks in order to score fast points off of the opposition's turnovers. The squad only has a rating of 7.89 in potential points scored off of steals vs. AO, which ranks 26th-worst in the college game.
Utah Valley doesn't perform as well offensively as they do defensively. The team is ranked 188th in offensive efficiency, scoring about 100 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Utah Valley has some difficulties converting mid-range shot attempts. The team is ranked 303rd in field goal percentage from that distance, making only 35.0% of their mid-range attempts vs. AO. If Utah Valley does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to sink threes. The squad converts 37.4% of their three-point attempts vs. AO, which ranks 23rd in the nation.
Utah Valley has been one of the more erratic teams in NCAA basketball this year (presently ranked 312th in the country in consistency), which makes forecasting the outcomes of their upcoming games tougher than most.
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.
