ANALYSIS:
If you're looking for a squad in the bottom quartile of all Division I basketball teams this year, Penn likely fits the bill. They have a record of 11-17 and are ranked 269th overall (out of 351) in the latest Haslametrics ratings. Of the eight schools in the Ivy League (average ranking 178.1), they're currently ranked as our #7 team in the conference.

Offense is not the strong suit when it comes to Penn. The team is ranked 285th in offensive efficiency and scores fewer than 95 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Penn is one of the least accurate teams when shooting from long-distance. They are ranked 328th in three-point field goal percentage nationally and make just 30.4% of their attempts from long vs. AO. Penn also struggles to draw fouls and earn opportunities at the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 24.86 vs. AO, they are 308th in the overall rankings for that category.

Though they rate better on defense than they do on offense, Penn still isn't one of the more capable defensive teams in college hoops. Allowing roughly 104 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #209 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Penn struggles on occasion to deny opponents opportunities to shoot from the floor. The team is ranked 317th in the nation in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 85.82 vs. AO.

When playing on the road, Penn performs somewhat worse than they normally do on their home court. The club is nationally ranked 311th in our site's away-from-home metric.
SORTABLE SCHEDULE / RESULTS:

In their other contests, Penn performs better than the norm 62% of the time.
Penn does better vs. clubs that tend to capitalize off breakaway opportunities. When playing squads that have a potential point rate off steals vs. AO greater than 10.39, Penn performs above average 64% of the time. Against all other opponents, the team performs better than the norm 19% of the time.
