ANALYSIS: Per this website's calculations, Colorado State is somewhere between an average to slightly above-average D1 ball-club. Ranked 107th overall (out of 357) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 20-8. They are also ranked by this site as the #5 team (out of 11) in the MWC (average ranking 177.6).
Colorado State has a fairly effective defensive attack. Occupying the #82 slot in our defensive efficiency ratings, they will allow about 95 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Colorado State makes a point to avoid fouls and prevent opponents from getting to the free throw line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 21.16 vs. AO, they are currently rated 51st in the country in that category. Colorado State also owns a pretty good track record against teams that shoot the three. They rank 73rd in the NCAA in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make just 32.1% of their attempts from afar. And to expose that weakness, this team will force AO to shoot the three more than they usually would. Of AO's total field goals, a large chunk of them (43.3%) will come from long-distance.
Colorado State plays at about the same level on offense as they do on defense. The team ranks 100th nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 104 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Colorado State is deadly accurate at the free throw line. Making 79.0% of their attempts from the stripe, they are ranked 13th nationally in free throw percentage. Colorado State will also make a concerted effort to fire off quite a few three-pointers each game. The team ranks 50th in ratio of three-point attempts to total field goal attempts. When it comes to actually making their three-point attempts, the squad shoots a so-so 33.9% from beyond the arc vs. AO.
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.
