ANALYSIS: Despite their unexceptional win percentage, Florida should be regarded as one of the better teams in college hoops. Their record this season is 21-13, and the club is ranked 16th overall (out of 351) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. Of the 14 schools in the SEC (average ranking 49.5), they're currently ranked as the best team in the conference. With a strength-of-schedule rating of 0.745 (which ranks 19th nationally), Florida is one of the more battle-tested teams in the college game.
The Florida defense will be extremely problematic for most opposing offenses. Allowing about 92 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, the club is ranked 12th overall in defensive efficiency. Florida thrives on scoring fast and easy points off of steals. They're ranked 21st in potential points off of breakaway steals vs. AO with a rating of 14.02. Florida will also take a bite out of many opponents' shooting percentages, based on the fact that the team ranks in the top-50 in three of our four primary defensive field goal categories. They're most likely to shut you down inside the three-point arc, considering the team limits AO to converting just 33.5% of their mid-range jumpers (32nd in the nation), 54.5% of their near-proximity chances (33rd), and 40.2% of their total shots from the field (24th).
Florida plays at about the same level on offense as they do on defense. The team ranks 27th nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 113 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Florida allows very few breakaway opportunities for the opposition, which typically translates to fewer turnovers. The team's rating vs. AO for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals is 6.32, which ranks #1 in the country. Florida is also one of the very best when it comes to maximizing field goal opportunities. The team is ranked ninth in the NCAA in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 87.20 vs. AO. And when they do shoot, they make a fair portion of their shots. Ranked in the top-100 in field goal shooting percentage, the squad converts about 46.2% of their total attempts vs. AO.
Florida has been playing better basketball in their most recent outings, as evidenced by the team's #50 ranking in positive momentum. Florida has also been one of the more erratic teams in NCAA basketball this year (presently ranked 305th in the country in consistency), which makes forecasting the outcomes of their upcoming games tougher than most. When playing on the road, Florida has played their best basketball this season. The team is currently ranked fifth 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.
CURIOUS TRENDS:
Florida is typically better vs. teams that convert more frequently off of offensive rebounds. Against foes that have an offensive second-chance conversion percentage vs. AO greater than 9.27%, Florida performs above their norm 80% of the time. Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 33% of the time.
When facing teams that do not defend well on the perimeter, Florida often performs worse than normal. Florida is more efficient than usual 18% of the time when facing teams that have a defensive three-point field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 34.94%. In their other contests, Florida performs better than the norm 61% of the time.
Florida does better vs. clubs that tend to allow more shots on the perimeter. When playing squads that have a defensive shooting proximity score vs. AO greater than 2.03, Florida performs above average 62% of the time. Against all other opponents, the team performs better than the norm 23% of the time.
