ANALYSIS: Yale has a fairly solid squad that likely falls within the top quartile of all teams in college basketball this year. Ranked 73rd overall (out of 364) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 22-8. Of the eight schools in the Ivy League (average ranking 191.8), they're currently ranked as the best team in the conference.
Yale has a reasonably potent offensive attack. Occupying the #69 slot in our offensive efficiency rankings, they will score about 115 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Yale is one of the more accurate teams in the college game when it comes to shooting the three. They're ranked 38th nationally in three-point field goal percentage and make about 37.3% of their attempts from there vs. AO. Though they convert many of their threes, the team doesn't really shoot a ton of them. Only 34.1% of their total attempts vs. AO are from long-distance. Yale also has a keen ability to drain field goals between the three-point line and the low post. The squad is ranked 43rd nationally in mid-range field goal percentage, making about 41.4% of their attempts from those locations vs. AO.
Yale plays at roughly the same level defensively as they do offensively. The team ranks 109th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 105 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Yale is one of the better teams when it comes to not allowing opponents to convert scoring chances off of offensive rebounds. The squad allows AO to convert only 4.6% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 39th in the NCAA). Yale also makes a point to avoid fouls and prevent opponents from getting to the free throw line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 23.81 vs. AO, they are currently rated 60th in the country in that category. If Yale 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 9.19 in potential points scored off of steals vs. AO, which ranks 42nd-worst in the college game.
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.
