ANALYSIS: If you're looking for a squad in the bottom quartile of all Division I basketball teams this year, Duquesne likely fits the bill. They have a record of 6-24 and are ranked 292nd overall (out of 358) in the latest Haslametrics ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the worst team (out of 14) in the A-10 (average ranking 137.9).
Duquesne does not provide much of a challenge on defense. They are ranked at #291 in efficiency on that end of the court and give up about 108 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Duquesne does an extremely poor job to deny the opposition behind the arc. They rank fifth from the bottom nationally in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make 38.4% of their attempts from afar. Duquesne also allows the opposition to get off far too many shots from the floor. The team is ranked 342nd in the nation in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 89.10 vs. AO. Duquesne is lastly one of the very worst teams in the game when it comes to preventing opponents from scoring off of offensive rebounds. The team allows AO to convert 6.7% of all second-chance opportunities (334th nationally). If Duquesne 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 19.41 vs. AO, which ranks 20th-best in the country.
Duquesne doesn't rate much better on offense than they do on defense. Scoring roughly 96 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #263 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Duquesne does an extremely poor job drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 20.39 vs. AO, they are 335th in the overall rankings for that category. If Duquesne does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to successfully get off shots each possession. The squad has a field goal attempt rate of 90.26 vs. AO, which ranks #6 in college basketball.
When playing on the road, Duquesne has played their best basketball this season. The team is currently ranked third in the country in the away-from-home metric our site tracks.
