ANALYSIS:
Boston College 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. Carrying a record of 16-17, they are currently rated #158 overall (out of 363) in All-Play Percentage this season. They are also ranked by this site as the #13 team (out of 15) in the ACC (average ranking 97.1).

Boston College will likely call on their defense to win a majority of their games. The team is ranked 150th in defensive efficiency and allows fewer than 103 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Boston College has done a really good job this year to prevent opponents from making shots from the inside. They are ranked 33rd in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on only 53.9% of their attempts from close-up. Boston College 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 22.60 vs. AO, they are currently rated 72nd in the country in that category.

Boston College is not quite as good on the offensive end of the floor. The team is ranked 186th in offensive efficiency, scoring about 102 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Despite their struggles on offense, Boston College doesn't really stand out as being terrible in any one particular area on that end of the floor. In fact, they aren't even in the bottom-100 in any of the offensive categories we consider for this analysis. If Boston College does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to obtain and convert second-chance opportunities from offensive rebounds. The squad has a second-chance conversion percentage of 6.7% vs. AO, which ranks 50th in the nation.
