ANALYSIS:
Per this website's calculations, Loyola Marymount is somewhere between an average to slightly above-average D1 ball-club. Carrying a record of 13-9, they are currently rated #108 overall (out of 357) in All-Play Percentage this season. They are also ranked by this site as the #6 team (out of 10) in the WCC (average ranking 125.3).

Loyola Marymount has a reasonably potent offensive attack. Occupying the #92 slot in our offensive efficiency rankings, they will score about 104 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Loyola Marymount will routinely look to penetrate, pound the ball inside, and score from as short a distance as possible. The ball-club is fourth in the NCAA in ratio of near-proximity attempts to total field goal attempts. As far as converting those near-proximity shots goes, the team shoots 60.2% vs. AO, which falls somewhere in the middle of the pack of the rankings in that category. Loyola Marymount also does an outstanding job finishing any scoring chances they obtain from offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team successfully converts 7.7% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 16th nationally). If Loyola Marymount does have a glaring weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's difficulties in getting off a sufficient number of shots each possession. The squad has a field goal attempt rate of just 76.54 vs. AO, which ranks seventh-worst in college basketball.

Loyola Marymount plays at roughly the same level defensively as they do offensively. The team ranks 127th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 98 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Loyola Marymount does a super job to deny opponents offensive rebounds and second chances. They have a rating of 8.37 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (ranked second in the country), and they allow AO to convert just 3.2% of their second-chance opportunities (ranked 17th) as well. Loyola Marymount also has extremely pesky defenders that ceaselessly attempt to deny opponents ample opportunity to shoot. The club is ranked 22nd in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 77.39 vs. AO. If Loyola Marymount does exhibit a noticeable weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's unwillingness to take risks in order to score fast points off of the opposition's turnovers. The squad only has a rating of 7.26 in potential points scored off of steals vs. AO, which ranks 15th-worst in the college game.
