ANALYSIS:
Not one of the better ball-clubs in college basketball, S. Carolina St. should be a fairly easy win for most capable opponents. Ranked 348th overall (out of 363) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 5-26. They are also ranked by this site as the #7 team (out of eight) in the MEAC (average ranking 285.9).

S. Carolina St. has a very sieve-like defense that gives up points way too easily. The team is ranked 348th in efficiency on that end of the court and gives up more than 112 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. S. Carolina St. can be counted on to make some of the inferior shooting teams look pretty capable. The team ranks in the bottom-50 in each of the four major defensive field goal shooting categories. They allow AO to make 38.9% of their three-pointers (seventh-worst in the nation), 41.9% of their mid-range jumpers (30th-worst), 65.1% of their near-proximity chances (11th-worst), and 49.4% of their total shots from the field (second-worst). S. Carolina St. is also one of the very worst teams in the game when it comes to preventing opponents from scoring off of offensive rebounds. The team allows AO to convert 7.2% of all second-chance opportunities (352nd nationally). S. Carolina St. lastly fouls far too much and sends the opposition to the line way too often. With a defensive free throw attempt rate of 30.94 vs. AO, the squad is ranked #347 in the country in that category. If S. Carolina St. 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 79.36 vs. AO, which ranks 22nd-best in college basketball.

S. Carolina St. doesn't rate much better on offense than they do on defense. Scoring roughly 93 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO, they are ranked #337 in the nation in offensive efficiency. S. Carolina St. struggles to draw fouls and earn opportunities at the free throw line. With a free throw attempt rate of just 21.79 vs. AO, they are 330th in the overall rankings for that category. S. Carolina St. is also not one of the better teams when it comes to sinking foul shots. Converting just 66.9% of their attempts, the squad is ranked #320 overall in free throw percentage.
