ANALYSIS: Not one of the better ball-clubs in college basketball, South Dakota should be a fairly easy win for most capable opponents. Haslametrics has them ranked 313th overall (out of 363) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 12-19. They are also ranked by this site as the #8 team (out of 10) in the Summit League (average ranking 245.2).
Defense is the farthest thing from a strength for South Dakota this year. The team ranks tenth from the bottom in defensive efficiency, allowing more than 113 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. South Dakota is extremely underskilled to force steals that turn into quick and easy points. They're ranked #346 in potential points off of breakaway steals with a rating of only 7.27 vs. AO. South Dakota also struggles on occasion to deny opponents opportunities to shoot from the floor. The team is ranked 320th in the nation in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 88.06 vs. AO.
Though they rate better on offense than they do on defense, South Dakota still isn't one of the more capable offensive teams in college hoops. Scoring roughly 98 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #267 in the nation in offensive efficiency. South Dakota does a terrible job to take advantage of scoring chances off of offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team converts only 2.7% of all second-chance opportunities (fourth from the bottom nationally), and with a rating of 10.05, they're 338th in potential points scored off of the offensive boards as well. If South Dakota does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's outstanding shooting at the charity stripe. The squad makes 76.7% of their free throw attempts, which ranks #29 in Division I.
South Dakota has been one of the most erratic teams in college basketball this year (currently ranked 351st overall in consistency), which makes the outcomes of their future games far more difficult to predict. When playing on the road, South Dakota performs somewhat worse than they normally do on their home court. The club is nationally ranked 315th in our site's away-from-home metric.
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.
CURIOUS TRENDS:
South Dakota does better vs. clubs that have trouble defending the mid-range shot. When playing squads that have a defensive mid-range field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 37.14%, South Dakota performs above average 72% of the time. Against all other opponents, the team performs better than the norm 18% of the time.
South Dakota performs worse against squads that convert well from outside the arc. When facing teams that have an offensive three-point field goal percentage vs. AO greater than 33.93%, South Dakota is more efficient than normal 22% of the time. In their other contests, the team is more efficient 65% of the time.
When playing teams that aren't terribly skilled defensively, South Dakota usually performs better than average. South Dakota is more efficient than normal 65% of the time when facing clubs that have a defensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 103.04.
