ANALYSIS: If you see Albany on the schedule, you will likely get one of the average to below-average teams in college hoops. Carrying a record of 13-19, they are currently rated #253 overall (out of 362) in All-Play Percentage this season. They are also ranked by this site as the #5 team (out of nine) in the America East (average ranking 234.8).
Defense is not exactly a strength for Albany this year. The team is ranked 306th in defensive efficiency and allows more than 111 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Albany is one of the very worst teams in the game when it comes to preventing opponents from scoring off of offensive rebounds. The team allows AO to convert 8.0% of all second-chance opportunities (fifth from the bottom nationally), and with a rating of 16.77, they're 348th in potential points surrendered off of the offensive boards as well. Albany also fouls far too much and sends the opposition to the line way too often. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 31.83 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #343 in the country in that category. Albany lastly allows opposing teams far too many easy chances from the floor, ranking in the bottom-50 in three of the four main defensive field goal shooting categories. They are exceptionally deficient defending inside the three-point line, allowing AO to make good on 43.3% of their mid-range jumpers (328th in the nation), 62.5% of their near-proximity chances (323rd), and 47.7% of their total shots from the field (341st).
Even though the team ranks considerably higher in offensive efficiency, Albany isn't a powerhouse on that end of the floor either. Scoring roughly 104 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #196 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Albany has some difficulty protecting the ball efficiently when in possession, which leads to some quick and easy baskets for the opposition. The team's rating for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals vs. AO is 13.87, which ranks 332nd in D1. If Albany does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to successfully hit from mid-range locations on the court. The team makes 44.2% of their in-between field goal attempts vs. AO, which ranks 24th in the NCAA.
Albany is one of the most consistent teams in NCAA basketball (currently ranked 14th in consistency), which makes the outcomes of their upcoming games far easier to predict.
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.
