ANALYSIS:
Per this website's calculations, Missouri State is somewhere between an average to slightly above-average D1 ball-club. Their record this season is 17-16, and the club is ranked 130th overall (out of 351) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #4 team (out of 10) in the MVC (average ranking 146.9).

If there is a strength for Missouri State this year, it's probably on the offensive end of the court. The team is rated 131st in offensive efficiency, scoring more than 103 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Missouri State loves taking the mid-range two, far more so than most other teams. The club is ranked fifth 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-75 in mid-range shooting percentage, they make roughly 39.4% of their attempts from that distance vs. AO. Missouri State also has the potential to make you pay if you let them get close to the rim. The team is ranked 33rd in the country in near-proximity field goal percentage, making approximately 66.4% of their attempts from up-close vs. AO.

Missouri State doesn't perform as well defensively as they do offensively. The team is ranked 204th in defensive efficiency, allowing about 104 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Missouri State fares terribly when attempting to stop opponents from converting from the inside. The team is ranked seventh from the bottom in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on 69.4% of their attempts from close-up. On a positive note, AO will take nowhere near as many inside shots as they typically would and, as a result, only 24.5% of AO's field goal attempts will come from short-distance.
