They are also ranked by this site as the #2 team (out of 12) in the Southland (average ranking 223.4).

Allowing about 107 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, they currently occupy the #140 slot in the ratings for defensive efficiency. Nicholls does a pretty solid job providing themselves chances to score quickly off of steals. They're ranked 49th in potential points off of breakaway steals vs. AO with a rating of 14.88. Nicholls also owns a pretty good track record against teams that shoot the three. They rank 73rd in the NCAA in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make just 32.3% of their attempts from afar.
Nicholls doesn't perform as well offensively as they do defensively. The team is ranked 208th in offensive efficiency, scoring about 106 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Nicholls will have a really tough time winning games when taking into consideration their shooting percentage near the basket.

On the road, Nicholls performs somewhat better than their norm, as the squad is nationally ranked 40th in our away-from-home metric.
