ANALYSIS:
While not an atrocious team by any means, Gardner-Webb is not exactly one that should appear in many top-100 rankings either. Haslametrics has them ranked 208th overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 20-15. They are also ranked by this site as the #5 team (out of 11) in the Big South (average ranking 237.1).

If there is a strength for Gardner-Webb this year, it's probably on the offensive end of the court. The team is rated 153rd in offensive efficiency, scoring more than 100 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Gardner-Webb will make a concerted effort to fire off quite a few three-pointers each game. The team ranks 35th 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 34.5% from beyond the arc vs. AO. Gardner-Webb also has a keen ability to drain field goals between the three-point line and the low post. The squad is ranked 37th nationally in mid-range field goal percentage, making about 38.6% of their attempts from those locations vs. AO. If Gardner-Webb does have a weakness offensively, it would have to be the team's difficulties obtaining and converting second-chance opportunities from offensive rebounds. The squad has a second-chance conversion percentage of just 4.9% vs. AO, which ranks 31st-worst in the nation.

The defense for Gardner-Webb, on the other hand, isn't nearly as efficient as the offense is. The team is ranked 282nd in defensive efficiency, allowing about 106 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Gardner-Webb gives up too many chances to easily score off of offensive rebounds. The team allows AO to convert 8.8% of all second-chance opportunities (325th nationally). Gardner-Webb also allows opponents' field goal percentages to get far too high. The ball-club ranks #320 nationally in field goal percentage allowed, as AO will convert approximately 47.2% of their total attempts from the floor. If Gardner-Webb does have a bright spot on defense, it would have to be their success preventing opponents from getting to the free throw line. The team has a defensive free throw attempt rate of 24.29 vs. AO, which ranks 30th-best in the country.
