ANALYSIS:
As an average to slightly above-average foe, Colgate should probably not be discounted by opponents this year. They are ranked #151 (out of 353) in the most recent Haslametrics ratings and have a record of 25-9. They are also ranked by this site as the best team (out of 10) in the Patriot League (average ranking 251.9).

Colgate has a reasonably potent offensive attack. Occupying the #96 slot in our offensive efficiency rankings, they will score about 103 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Colgate lives and dies by the three-ball and will launch from long-distance early and often. The team ranks 13th in ratio of three-point attempts to total field goal attempts. If you do allow them to shoot from long, they have the ability to punish you for it, too. Ranked in the top-100 in three-point shooting percentage, they make approximately 35.1% of their three-point attempts vs. AO. Colgate also does a pretty decent job in most cases to maximize opportunities to score on offense. The team is ranked 54th in the NCAA in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 84.53 vs. AO. As far as making those field goal attempts goes, the team is somewhat middle-of-the-road, converting about 43.0% of them vs. AO. If Colgate does have a glaring weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's inability to drain mid-range jumpers. The squad makes just 32.2% of their mid-range field goal attempts vs. AO, which ranks 18th-worst in the nation.

Colgate doesn't perform as well defensively as they do offensively. The team is ranked 183rd in defensive efficiency, allowing about 100 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Colgate struggles on occasion to deny opponents opportunities to shoot from the floor. The team is ranked 321st in the nation in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 85.76 vs. AO. If Colgate does have a bright spot on defense, it would have to be their ability to prevent opponents from converting second-chance opportunities via offensive rebounds. The team has a defensive second-chance conversion percentage of 3.8% vs. AO, which ranks 42nd-best in the nation.
SORTABLE SCHEDULE / RESULTS:
Projections are based on present-day ratings. Stars indicate games played at a neutral location.

CURIOUS TRENDS:

When facing teams that favor a faster tempo, Colgate often performs better than normal. Colgate is more efficient than usual 73% of the time when facing teams that have a pace vs. AO greater than 70.13. In their other contests, Colgate performs better than the norm 36% of the time.
