ANALYSIS:
There are very few Division I teams that are as bad as Kennesaw State is this year. Haslametrics has them ranked seventh from the bottom overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 10-22. Of the eight schools in the Atlantic Sun (average ranking 260.8), they're currently ranked as the worst team in the conference.

Kennesaw State has one of the most anemic offenses around. They rank ninth from the bottom in efficiency on that end of the court and score fewer than 87 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Kennesaw State does an extremely poor job drawing fouls and getting to the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 22.12 vs. AO, they are eighth from the bottom in the overall rankings for that category. Kennesaw State also shoots dreadfully from the floor and ranks in the bottom-25 in three of our four major field goal shooting categories. They are worse off shooting inside the three-point stripe, making good on just 30.1% of their mid-range jumpers (336th in the nation), 50.1% of their near-proximity chances (337th), and 37.9% of their total shots from the field (334th) vs. AO.

Kennesaw State doesn't rate much better on defense than they do on offense. Allowing roughly 111 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #334 in the nation in defensive efficiency. Kennesaw State performs really badly when attempting to stop opponents from making mid-range jumpers. The squad is ranked last nationally in defensive mid-range field goal percentage, allowing AO to make good on 45.8% of their attempts from those in-between spots on the floor. Kennesaw State also gives up far too many offensive rebounds and second chances to their opponents. The club has a rating of 18.52 vs. AO in potential points allowed off of second chances (336th nationally). Kennesaw State lastly struggles on occasion to deny opponents opportunities to shoot from the floor. The team is ranked 326th in the nation in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 86.06 vs. AO.

Kennesaw State has recently performed below their norm from an efficiency standpoint. The team is currently ranked 317th in the country in positive momentum. Kennesaw State has also been one of the most erratic teams in college basketball this year (currently ranked fifth from the bottom overall in consistency), which makes the outcomes of their future games far more difficult to predict.
