ANALYSIS:
GA Southern presently has one of the below-average teams in college basketball. Their record this season is 9-24, and the club is ranked 273rd overall (out of 362) in Haslametrics' most recent ratings. They are also ranked by this site as the #11 team (out of 14) in the Sun Belt (average ranking 200.4).

GA Southern does not provide much of a challenge on defense. They are ranked at #311 in efficiency on that end of the court and give up about 112 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. GA Southern fouls far too much and sends the opposition to the line way too often. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 35.08 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #360 in the country in that category. GA Southern also performs really badly when attempting to stop opponents from making mid-range jumpers. The squad is ranked 346th nationally in defensive mid-range field goal percentage, allowing AO to make good on 44.5% of their attempts from those in-between spots on the floor. Thankfully, AO will take nowhere near as many mid-range shots vs. GA Southern as they typically would, as only 22.4% of their field goal attempts will come from in-between locations. If GA Southern does have a bright spot on defense, it would have to be their ability to limit the number of shot attempts by the opposition. The team has a defensive field goal attempt rate of 82.34 vs. AO, which ranks 46th-best in college basketball.

Even though the team ranks considerably higher in offensive efficiency, GA Southern isn't a powerhouse on that end of the floor either. Scoring roughly 103 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #210 in the nation in offensive efficiency. GA Southern is not one of the better teams at drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 23.32 vs. AO, they are 298th in the overall rankings for that category.

GA Southern has been playing much better basketball as of late and is presently ranked sixth in positive momentum because of it.
