ANALYSIS:
Regardless of what the win percentage says, Texas Southern isn't a very good team this year. Haslametrics has them ranked 218th overall (out of 353) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 24-14. They are also ranked by this site as the best team (out of 10) in the SWAC (average ranking 310.2).

Texas Southern does not have a terribly exceptional defense this year. Rated at #219 in defensive efficiency, they allow around 106 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Texas Southern allows opponents to make good on a fair number of their overall field goal attempts. The ball-club ranks #272 nationally in field goal percentage allowed, as AO will convert approximately 46.4% of their total attempts from the floor. If Texas Southern does have a bright spot on defense, it would have to be their willingness to take risks in order to score fast points off of steals. The team has a solid rating of 14.28 in potential points scored off of steals vs. AO, which ranks 42nd-best in college basketball.

Texas Southern doesn't rate much better on offense than they do on defense. Scoring roughly 102 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #192 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Texas Southern has some difficulties converting mid-range shot attempts. The team is ranked 292nd in field goal percentage from that distance, making only 32.7% of their mid-range attempts vs. AO. If Texas Southern does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's knack for obtaining second-chance opportunities from offensive rebounds. The squad has a rating of 16.76 in potential points off of second chances vs. AO, which ranks 32nd in all of college hoops.
