ANALYSIS: Maine presently has one of the below-average teams in college basketball. They have a record of 3-27 and are ranked 338th overall (out of 351) in the latest Haslametrics ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the worst team (out of nine) in the America East (average ranking 239.7).
Defense is the farthest thing from a strength for Maine this year. The team ranks 339th in defensive efficiency, allowing more than 112 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Maine can be counted on to make some of the inferior shooting teams look pretty capable. The team ranks in the bottom-50 in each of the four major defensive field goal shooting categories. They allow AO to make 37.5% of their three-pointers (40th-worst in the nation), 42.0% of their mid-range jumpers (sixth-worst), 67.1% of their near-proximity chances (ninth-worst), and 49.1% of their total shots from the field (seventh-worst).
Maine doesn't rate much better on offense than they do on defense. Scoring roughly 90 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #318 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Maine does an extremely poor job drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 21.06 vs. AO, they are second from the bottom in the overall rankings for that category. Maine also tends to be very careless with the ball and allows far too many breakaway opportunities off of their own turnovers. The team's rating for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals vs. AO is 14.04, which ranks 330th in D1. If Maine does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's outstanding shooting at the charity stripe. The squad makes 75.4% of their free throw attempts, which ranks #18 in Division I.
On the road, Maine performs somewhat better than their norm, as the squad is nationally ranked 36th in our away-from-home metric.
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.
CURIOUS TRENDS:
Maine does better vs. clubs that allow more chances at the line. When playing squads that have a defensive free throw attempt rate vs. AO greater than 31.39, Maine performs above average 100% of the time. Against all other opponents, the team performs better than the norm 38% of the time.
Maine performs better against squads that prefer the outside shot. When facing teams that have an offensive shooting proximity score vs. AO greater than 2.00, Maine is more efficient than normal 80% of the time. In their other contests, the team is more efficient 45% of the time.
When playing teams that aren't terribly skilled defensively, Maine usually performs better than average. Maine is more efficient than normal 67% of the time when facing clubs that have a defensive efficiency rating vs. AO greater than 98.94. In all other contests, Maine performs better than average 33% of the time.
