ANALYSIS: FGCU is a fairly decent basketball team that, while likely better than average, isn't quite good enough to crack any top-25 rankings this year. Haslametrics has them ranked 138th overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 23-12. Of the eight schools in the Atlantic Sun (average ranking 264.8), they're currently ranked as the best team in the conference.
Based on the data, FGCU will likely find more success on offense than on defense. Scoring about 104 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, they currently occupy the #133 slot in the rankings for offensive efficiency. FGCU will make a strong effort to get off as many field goals close to the basket as they can. The ball-club is 30th 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 59.6% vs. AO, which falls somewhere in the middle of the pack of the rankings in that category. FGCU has also been fairly successful when shooting from the field. The squad is ranked 75th in the country in field goal percentage, making approximately 46.3% of their attempts vs. AO.
FGCU plays at roughly the same level defensively as they do offensively. The team ranks 139th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 101 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. FGCU has been doing fairly decent work to prevent opponents from getting off shots from the field. The club is ranked 63rd in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 79.33 vs. AO.
FGCU has been one of the more erratic teams in NCAA basketball this year (presently ranked 315th in the country in consistency), which makes forecasting the outcomes of their upcoming games tougher than most. When playing on the road, FGCU has played their best basketball this season. The team is currently ranked 17th in the country in the away-from-home metric our site tracks.
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.

FGCU performs better against squads that do not defend well on the perimeter. When facing teams that have a defensive three-point field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 35.76%, FGCU is more efficient than normal 79% of the time. In their other contests, the team is more efficient 39% of the time.
