ANALYSIS:
Per this website's calculations, Texas A&M is somewhere between an average to slightly above-average D1 ball-club. Their record this season is 14-18, and the club is ranked 99th overall (out of 353) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #12 team (out of 14) in the SEC (average ranking 54.3).

Texas A&M has a fairly effective defensive attack. Occupying the #99 slot in our defensive efficiency ratings, they will allow about 99 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Texas A&M is a superior unit when it comes to preventing opponents from getting to the foul line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 21.31 vs. AO, they are currently rated 19th in the country in that category. Texas A&M has also had some success this season preventing opponents from converting many of their overall field goal attempts. The team ranks #55 nationally in field goal percentage allowed, as AO only makes good on about 41.3% of their total attempts from the floor. If Texas A&M does exhibit a noticeable weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's difficulties stopping opponents from obtaining second-chance opportunities via offensive rebounds. The squad has a rating of 16.89 in potential points allowed off of second chances vs. AO, which ranks 19th-worst in college hoops.

Texas A&M plays at about the same level on offense as they do on defense. The team ranks 115th nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 106 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Texas A&M does an outstanding job finishing any scoring chances they obtain from offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team successfully converts 8.5% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 13th nationally). Texas A&M will also make a strong effort to get off as many field goals close to the basket as they can. The ball-club is 45th 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 61.6% vs. AO, which falls somewhere in the middle of the pack of the rankings in that category.

Texas A&M has recently performed below their norm from an efficiency standpoint. The team is currently ranked 313th in the country in positive momentum. When playing on the road, Texas A&M has played their best basketball this season. The team is currently ranked 17th in the country in the away-from-home metric our site tracks.

When facing teams that have an offensive second-chance potential point rate vs. AO greater than 14.30, Texas A&M is more efficient than normal 33% of the time. In their other contests, the team is more efficient 77% of the time.
When playing teams that allow a greater number of field goal opportunities, Texas A&M usually performs better than average. Texas A&M is more efficient than normal 82% of the time when facing clubs that have a defensive field goal attempt rate vs. AO greater than 84.33. In all other contests, Texas A&M performs better than average 43% of the time.
Texas A&M is typically worse vs. teams that tend to capitalize off breakaway opportunities.

Against the remaining opposition, the team performs above average 68% of the time.
