ANALYSIS: Per this website's calculations, Georgia State is somewhere between an average to slightly above-average D1 ball-club. Their record this season is 16-6, and the club is ranked 171st overall (out of 357) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the best team (out of 12) in the Sun Belt (average ranking 234.5).
If there is a strength for Georgia State this year, it's probably on the offensive end of the court. The team is rated 122nd in offensive efficiency, scoring more than 102 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Georgia State does a super job in their efforts to get to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of 29.84 vs. AO, they are ranked 18th in the nation at getting to the charity stripe, where the team shoots a rather mediocre 69.7%. Georgia State also favors the mid-range jumper over any of the others. The club is ranked 33rd in ratio of mid-range attempts to total field goal attempts. If you do allow them to take that in-between shot, they can certainly make it, too. Currently rated in the top-50 in mid-range shooting percentage, they make roughly 42.1% of their attempts from that distance vs. AO.
The defense for Georgia State, on the other hand, isn't nearly as efficient as the offense is. The team is ranked 249th in defensive efficiency, allowing about 103 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Georgia State tends to struggle a bit against teams that shoot the three. They rank 280th nationally in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make 36.0% of their attempts from afar.
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.
