ANALYSIS: Illinois State has a squad that most likely falls somewhere in the bottom half of NCAA Division I teams this year. Ranked 226th overall (out of 353) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 10-21. They are also ranked by this site as the #9 team (out of 10) in the MVC (average ranking 154.2).
Offensively, Illinois State finds itself in the lower half of the rankings. The team is rated 247th in offensive efficiency and scores fewer than 95 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Illinois State struggles to draw fouls and earn opportunities at the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 21.58 vs. AO, they are 308th in the overall rankings for that category.
Illinois State doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 101 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #208 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Although their defense isn't the greatest, Illinois State doesn't stand out as being especially horrible in any one particular area on that end of the court, and they fall outside the bottom-100 in every one of the defensive categories we take into consideration for this analysis.
On the road, Illinois State performs noticeably worse than they do at home. The team is currently ranked 331st in the country in the away-from-home metric we track.
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.
