ANALYSIS:
While not an atrocious team by any means, Little Rock is not exactly one that should appear in many top-100 rankings either. They are ranked #234 (out of 351) in the most recent Haslametrics ratings and have a record of 15-17. Of the 12 schools in the Sun Belt (average ranking 182.6), they're currently ranked as our #9 team in the conference.

Little Rock is not one of the most productive teams on offense. Scoring fewer than 97 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are rated at #262 in offensive efficiency. Little Rock has been below-average more times than not when shooting three-pointers this year. They are ranked 291st in three-point field goal percentage nationally and make just 32.6% of their attempts from long vs. AO. If Little Rock does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's care for the ball. The squad has a rating of 8.57 in potential points allowed off of steals vs. AO, which ranks 24th in the college game.

Though they rate better on defense than they do on offense, Little Rock still isn't one of the more capable defensive teams in college hoops. Allowing roughly 104 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #210 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Little Rock hasn't done terribly well defending the mid-range jumper. The squad is ranked 291st nationally in defensive mid-range field goal percentage, allowing AO to make good on 39.2% of their attempts from those in-between spots on the floor. If Little Rock does have a bright spot on defense, it would have to be their success stopping opponents from earning second-chance opportunities via offensive boards. The team has a rating of 11.59 in potential points allowed off of second chances vs. AO, which ranks 13th-best in college hoops.
