ANALYSIS:
Louisiana has a squad that most likely falls somewhere in the bottom half of NCAA Division I teams this year. Carrying a record of 14-19, they are currently rated #209 overall (out of 353) in All-Play Percentage this season. Of the 12 schools in the Sun Belt (average ranking 172.8), they're currently ranked as our #10 team in the conference.

Defense is not exactly a strength for Louisiana this year. The team is ranked 263rd in defensive efficiency and allows more than 103 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Louisiana has done a pretty poor job this season to prevent opponents from making shots from the inside. The team is ranked 319th in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on 64.5% of their attempts from close-up.

Though they rate better on offense than they do on defense, Louisiana still isn't one of the more capable offensive teams in college hoops. Scoring roughly 99 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #184 in the nation in offensive efficiency. Louisiana has some difficulties converting mid-range shot attempts. The team is ranked 281st in field goal percentage from that distance, making only 34.6% of their mid-range attempts vs. AO. If Louisiana does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's outstanding shooting at the charity stripe. The squad makes 75.3% of their free throw attempts, which ranks #50 in Division I.
