ANALYSIS: They may not cause sleepless nights for opponents, but Wofford, as a slightly above-average team, cannot be totally ignored. Their record this season is 15-9, and the club is ranked 130th overall (out of 357) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. Of the 10 schools in the Southern (average ranking 165.5), they're currently ranked as our #3 team in the conference.
Based on the data, Wofford will likely find more success on offense than on defense. Scoring about 104 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, they currently occupy the #104 slot in the rankings for offensive efficiency. Wofford lives and dies by the three-ball and will launch from long-distance early and often. The team ranks first in ratio of three-point attempts to total field goal attempts. When it comes to actually making their three-point attempts, the squad shoots a so-so 35.4% from beyond the arc vs. AO. Wofford also fares better than most teams when it comes to converting from locations close to the basket. The team is ranked 60th in the country in near-proximity field goal percentage, making approximately 63.1% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO. If Wofford does have a glaring weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's inability to get to the free throw line. The squad has a free throw attempt rate of only 19.16 vs. AO, which ranks ninth-worst in the country.
Wofford is also a fairly decent team on the defensive end of the court. The team ranks 176th nationally in defensive efficiency, allowing about 100 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Wofford makes a point to avoid fouls and prevent opponents from getting to the free throw line. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 21.76 vs. AO, they are currently rated 69th in the country in that category.
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.
