ANALYSIS: While not an atrocious team by any means, Tulane is not exactly one that should appear in many top-100 rankings either. Their record this season is 15-16, and the club is ranked 233rd overall (out of 351) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #8 team (out of 11) in the AAC (average ranking 151.7).
Tulane will likely call on their defense to win a majority of their games. The team is ranked 139th in defensive efficiency and allows fewer than 100 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Tulane does a super job to deny opponents offensive rebounds and second chances. They have a rating of 12.21 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (ranked 16th in the country). Tulane also has been doing fairly decent work to prevent opponents from getting off shots from the field. The club is ranked 61st in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 78.87 vs. AO.
The offense for Tulane, on the other hand, isn't nearly as efficient as the defense is. The team is ranked 282nd in offensive efficiency, scoring about 94 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Tulane has had serious struggles making their free throws this year. Converting just 63.2% of their attempts, the squad is ranked #331 overall in free throw percentage. Tulane also won't provide opponents much of a scare with their shooting percentage from the inside. The team is ranked 320th in near-proximity field goal percentage, making only 52.1% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO.
Tulane has been playing some of their worst basketball of the season as of late, and they're presently ranked 332nd in positive momentum because of it. When playing on the road, Tulane has played their best basketball this season. The team is currently ranked seventh in the country in the away-from-home metric our site tracks.
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.
