ANALYSIS:
Mid Tennessee has been extremely effective at times this year and should be regarded as a serious opponent. Their record this season is 25-8, and the club is ranked 52nd overall (out of 351) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the best team (out of 14) in Conference USA (average ranking 170.5).

Mid Tennessee has a fairly effective defensive attack. Occupying the #34 slot in our defensive efficiency ratings, they will allow about 94 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Mid Tennessee does a fantastic job to prevent opposing teams from capitalizing on chances from offensive rebounds. The squad allows AO to convert only 4.2% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked fifth in the NCAA), and with a rating of 11.03, they're seventh in potential points allowed off of the offensive glass as well. Mid Tennessee also has extremely pesky defenders that ceaselessly attempt to deny opponents ample opportunity to shoot. The club is ranked 11th in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 76.31 vs. AO.

Mid Tennessee plays at about the same level on offense as they do on defense. The team ranks 75th nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 108 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Mid Tennessee does an outstanding job finishing any scoring chances they obtain from offensive rebounds. Against AO, the team successfully converts 10.5% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked eighth nationally). Mid Tennessee also has the potential to make you pay if you let them get close to the rim. The team is ranked 37th in the country in near-proximity field goal percentage, making approximately 65.2% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO. The squad likewise lands in the top-50 in overall offensive field goal percentage and makes good on about 47.4% of their total attempts vs. AO.

On the road, Mid Tennessee performs noticeably worse than they do at home. The team is currently ranked 337th in the country in the away-from-home metric we track.
