Of the 11 schools in the Sun Belt (average ranking 206.9), they're currently ranked as our #7 team in the conference.

If there is a strength for Little Rock this year, it's probably on the offensive end of the court. The team is rated 174th in offensive efficiency, scoring more than 99 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Little Rock allows very few breakaway opportunities for the opposition, which typically translates to fewer turnovers. The team's rating vs. AO for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals is 8.09, which ranks #7 in the country.
