ANALYSIS:
They're far from the worst of the worst, but N. Kentucky should not be a terribly frightening opponent for most clubs. Ranked 189th overall (out of 362) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 18-15. Of the 11 schools in the Horizon League (average ranking 220.8), they're currently ranked as our #5 team in the conference.

Based on their performances this year, N. Kentucky will likely find more success on defense than they will on offense. Allowing about 105 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, they currently occupy the #158 slot in the ratings for defensive efficiency. N. Kentucky owns a pretty good track record against teams that shoot the three. They rank 52nd in the NCAA in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make just 31.9% 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 (41.5%) will come from long-distance. If N. Kentucky does exhibit a noticeable weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's troubles stopping opponents from converting mid-range jumpers. AO will make good on 47.7% of their mid-range field goal attempts, and the squad ranks third-worst in that category because of it.

N. Kentucky doesn't perform as well offensively as they do defensively. The team is ranked 224th in offensive efficiency, scoring about 103 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. N. Kentucky won't provide opponents much of a scare with their shooting percentage from the inside. The team is ranked 333rd in near-proximity field goal percentage, making only 52.0% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO. If N. Kentucky does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to successfully hit from mid-range locations on the court. The team makes 46.0% of their in-between field goal attempts vs. AO, which ranks seventh in the NCAA.
