ANALYSIS:
This website places Texas State in the top 25% of all NCAA college basketball teams this year. Haslametrics has them ranked 84th overall (out of 353) in All-Play Percentage, and the team holds a record of 21-11. Of the 12 schools in the Sun Belt (average ranking 173.3), they're currently ranked as the best team in the conference.

Texas State has a fairly effective defensive attack. Occupying the #75 slot in our defensive efficiency ratings, they will allow about 94 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO. Texas State has been doing fairly decent work to prevent opponents from getting off shots from the field. The club is ranked 51st in Division I in defensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 78.55 vs. AO. Texas State has also been pretty good preventing teams from hitting shots in the paint. They are ranked 59th in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on only 55.4% of their attempts from close-up.

Texas State plays at about the same level on offense as they do on defense. The team ranks 92nd nationally in offensive efficiency, scoring about 103 points every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Texas State loves taking the mid-range two, far more so than most other teams. The club is ranked seventh in ratio of mid-range attempts to total field goal attempts. And they're extremely proficient at making that in-between shot as well. The team converts 42.3% of their mid-range attempts vs. AO, which ranks as 14th-best in the nation. Texas State is also one of the very best when it comes to maximizing field goal opportunities. The team is ranked 20th in the NCAA in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of 85.91 vs. AO. As far as making those field goal attempts goes, the team is somewhat middle-of-the-road, converting about 44.5% of them vs. AO.

Texas State is one of the most consistent teams in NCAA basketball (currently ranked 12th in consistency), which makes the outcomes of their upcoming games far easier to predict.
