ANALYSIS:
As an average to slightly above-average foe, UC San Diego should probably not be discounted by opponents this year. Ranked 127th overall (out of 362) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 21-12. They are also ranked by this site as the #2 team (out of 11) in the Big West (average ranking 192.9).

UC San Diego has a reasonably potent offensive attack. Occupying the #85 slot in our offensive efficiency rankings, they will score about 111 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. UC San Diego does a pretty good job of protecting the ball when they have possession and not allowing quick and easy baskets off of their own turnovers. The team's rating vs. AO for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals is 9.02, which ranks #27 in the country. UC San Diego also does a pretty decent job in most cases to maximize opportunities to score on offense. The team is ranked 67th in the NCAA in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 87.84 vs. AO. As far as making those field goal attempts goes, the team is somewhat middle-of-the-road, converting about 45.0% of them vs. AO. If UC San Diego does have a weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's difficulties obtaining second-chance opportunities from offensive rebounds. The squad only has a rating of 10.33 vs. AO in potential points off of second chances, which ranks 39th-worst in college hoops.

UC San Diego is also a fairly decent team on the defensive end of the court. The team ranks 180th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 106 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. UC San Diego makes a point to avoid fouls and prevent opponents from getting to the free throw line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 23.73 vs. AO, they are currently rated 77th in the country in that category.

UC San Diego has definitely not been as efficient as of late compared to earlier in the season and, consequently, the team is nationally ranked 344th in positive momentum.
