ANALYSIS: Maine is not one of the better teams in Division I this year. Ranked 323rd overall (out of 353) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 9-22. They are also ranked by this site as the #8 team (out of nine) in the America East (average ranking 252.4).
Maine has one of the most anemic offenses around. They rank 333rd in efficiency on that end of the court and score fewer than 89 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Maine tends to be very careless with the ball and allows far too many breakaway opportunities off of their own turnovers. The team's rating for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals vs. AO is 16.30, which ranks second from the bottom in D1. Maine is also one of the least accurate teams when shooting from long-distance. They are ranked 340th in three-point field goal percentage nationally and make just 28.6% of their attempts from long vs. AO.
Maine 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 #309 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Maine has some difficulty staying out of foul trouble, leading to an excess of free throw attempts for the opposition. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 27.63 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #268 in the country in that category.
Maine has been playing much better basketball as of late and is presently ranked eighth in positive momentum because of it. Maine has also been one of the more erratic teams in NCAA basketball this year (presently ranked 314th 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.
CURIOUS TRENDS:
When playing teams that are typically efficient on offense, Maine usually performs worse than average. Maine is more efficient than normal 18% of the time when facing clubs that have an offensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 97.35. In all other contests, Maine performs better than average 63% of the time.
Maine is typically worse vs. teams that effectively clean the offensive glass. Against foes that have an offensive second-chance potential point rate vs. AO greater than 10.21, Maine performs above their norm 32% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 73% of the time.
When facing teams that do a nice job converting inside the paint, Maine often performs worse than normal. Maine is more efficient than usual 27% of the time when facing teams that have an offensive near-proximity field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 57.69%. In their other contests, Maine performs better than the norm 67% of the time.
