ANALYSIS:
Despite having a win percentage north of .500, Grambling is definitely a below-average ball-club in college hoops this year. They have a record of 21-15 and are ranked 297th overall (out of 362) in the latest Haslametrics ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #3 team (out of 12) in the SWAC (average ranking 319.3).

Grambling is not one of the better offensive teams you will find. They are rated #305 in efficiency on that end of the court and only score about 98 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Grambling isn't performing well from the free throw line this season. Converting just 69.7% of their attempts, the squad is ranked #275 overall in free throw percentage.

Grambling doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 110 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #267 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Grambling gives up far too many offensive rebounds and second chances to their opponents. The club has a rating of 16.35 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (341st nationally), and they let AO convert a healthy 6.5% of all second-chance opportunities (ranked 317th) as well. Grambling also tends to struggle a bit against teams that shoot the three. They rank 312th nationally in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make 36.4% of their attempts from afar.

Grambling has been playing better basketball in their most recent outings, as evidenced by the team's #37 ranking in positive momentum.
