ANALYSIS:
They may not cause sleepless nights for opponents, but Stephen F. Austin, as a slightly above-average team, cannot be totally ignored. Haslametrics has them ranked 172nd overall (out of 362) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 18-15. They are also ranked by this site as the #5 team (out of 11) in the WAC (average ranking 186.5).

Stephen F. Austin has a fairly effective defensive attack. Occupying the #100 slot in our defensive efficiency ratings, they will allow about 101 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Stephen F. Austin has extremely pesky defenders that ceaselessly attempt to deny opponents ample opportunity to shoot. The club is ranked fourth in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 77.80 vs. AO. Stephen F. Austin also does an adequate job to prevent opponents from scoring off of offensive rebounds. The squad allows AO to convert only 4.6% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 58th in the NCAA). If Stephen F. Austin does exhibit a noticeable weakness on the defensive end of the floor, it'd likely be the team's inability to stop opponents from sinking threes. AO will convert 38.1% of their three-point attempts, and the team ranks 11th-worst in that category because of it.

Unfortunately, Stephen F. Austin is not even remotely close to being as good on offense as they are on defense. The team is ranked 266th in offensive efficiency, scoring about 100 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Stephen F. Austin happens to be one of the very worst in the game when it comes to maximizing the number of shot attempts they get off from the floor. The team is nationally ranked 344th in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of only 81.40 vs. AO. Stephen F. Austin also has some difficulty protecting the ball efficiently when in possession, which leads to some quick and easy baskets for the opposition. The team's rating for potential breakaway points allowed off of steals vs. AO is 14.06, which ranks 336th in D1. If Stephen F. Austin does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to get to the free throw line.
