ANALYSIS: While not an atrocious team by any means, St. Peter's is not exactly one that should appear in many top-100 rankings either. Ranked 191st overall (out of 353) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 18-12. They are also ranked by this site as the #2 team (out of 11) in the MAAC (average ranking 246.4).
St. Peter's has a fairly effective defensive attack. Occupying the #68 slot in our defensive efficiency ratings, they will allow about 94 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. St. Peter's does a fantastic job to prevent opposing teams from capitalizing on chances from offensive rebounds. The squad allows AO to convert only 3.3% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 11th in the NCAA). St. Peter's also has extremely pesky defenders that ceaselessly attempt to deny opponents ample opportunity to shoot. The club is ranked 18th in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 76.39 vs. AO. St. Peter's lastly does tremendous work shutting down the opposition from the inside. They are ranked 22nd in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on only 52.2% of their attempts from close-up. If St. Peter's does exhibit a noticeable weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's troubles stopping opponents from converting mid-range jumpers. AO will make good on 42.7% of their mid-range field goal attempts, and the squad ranks 22nd-worst in that category because of it.
Unfortunately, St. Peter's is not even remotely close to being as good on offense as they are on defense. The team is ranked 309th in offensive efficiency, scoring about 91 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. St. Peter's will have a really tough time winning games when taking into consideration their shooting percentage near the basket. The team is ranked last in near-proximity field goal percentage, making only 47.1% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO. Moreover, they find themselves in the bottom-50 in overall offensive field goal percentage, converting just 39.7% of their total attempts vs. AO.
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.
