ANALYSIS: If you're looking for a squad in the bottom quartile of all Division I basketball teams this year, Cal Poly likely fits the bill. They are ranked #280 (out of 363) in the most recent Haslametrics ratings and have a record of 8-25. They are also ranked by this site as the #9 team (out of 11) in the Big West (average ranking 195.6).
Based on their performances this year, Cal Poly will likely find more success on defense than they will on offense. Allowing about 102 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, they currently occupy the #154 slot in the ratings for defensive efficiency. Cal Poly does a fantastic job to prevent opposing teams from capitalizing on chances from offensive rebounds. The squad allows AO to convert only 3.1% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked sixth in the NCAA), and with a rating of 10.89, they're 16th in potential points allowed off of the offensive glass as well. Cal Poly also has extremely pesky defenders that ceaselessly attempt to deny opponents ample opportunity to shoot. The club is ranked 12th in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 78.73 vs. AO. If Cal Poly does exhibit a noticeable weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's tendency to send opponents to the line too much by fouling. The squad has a rating of 31.68 in defensive free throw attempt rate vs. AO, which ranks 11th-worst in the country.
Unfortunately, Cal Poly is not even remotely close to being as good on offense as they are on defense. The team is ranked 342nd in offensive efficiency, scoring about 93 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Cal Poly is one of the least accurate teams when shooting from long-distance. They are ranked eighth from the bottom in three-point field goal percentage nationally and make just 29.5% of their attempts from long vs. AO. Moreover, they find themselves in the bottom-50 in overall offensive field goal percentage, converting just 41.0% of their total attempts vs. AO. Cal Poly is also one of the more deficient teams in the nation as it pertains to scoring off of offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team converts only 3.8% of all second-chance opportunities (324th nationally).
Cal Poly has been playing better basketball in their most recent outings, as evidenced by the team's #30 ranking in positive momentum. Cal Poly has also been one of the more erratic teams in NCAA basketball this year (presently ranked 326th in the country in consistency), which makes forecasting the outcomes of their upcoming games tougher than most.
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.
