ANALYSIS: Despite what their win percentage might indicate, Notre Dame is a good team that can cause more than enough trouble for most opponents. Ranked 86th overall (out of 357) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 11-15. Of the 15 schools in the ACC (average ranking 76.8), they're currently ranked as our #11 team in the conference.
Notre Dame succeeds primarily through their offense. They are ranked 27th in offensive efficiency and score in excess of 110 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Notre Dame is deadly accurate at the free throw line. Making 77.9% of their attempts from the stripe, they are ranked 21st nationally in free throw percentage. Notre Dame also has the potential to make you pay if you let them get close to the rim. The team is ranked 26th in the country in near-proximity field goal percentage, making approximately 65.1% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO. The squad likewise lands in the top-50 in overall offensive field goal percentage and makes good on about 47.4% of their total attempts vs. AO.
Unfortunately, Notre Dame is not even remotely close to being as good on defense as they are on offense. The team is ranked 236th in defensive efficiency, allowing about 103 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Notre Dame allows the opposition to get off far too many shots from the floor. The team is ranked last in the nation in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 92.32 vs. AO. Notre Dame also can be weak on rebounding, giving the opposition too many chances to score off of the offensive glass. The club has a rating of 15.13 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (312th nationally). If Notre Dame does have a bright spot on defense, it would have to be their success preventing opponents from getting to the free throw line. The team has a defensive free throw attempt rate of 17.51 vs. AO, which ranks third-best in the country.
Notre Dame has definitely not been as efficient as of late compared to earlier in the season and, consequently, the team is nationally ranked 341st in positive momentum.
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.
