ANALYSIS:
As an average to slightly above-average foe, Miss. State should probably not be discounted by opponents this year. Carrying a record of 13-19, they are currently rated #158 overall (out of 351) in All-Play Percentage this season. Of the 14 schools in the SEC (average ranking 68.6), they're currently ranked as our #13 team in the conference.

The primary strength for Miss. State is defense. The team is ranked 98th in efficiency, allowing fewer than 98 points for every 100 trips upcourt vs. AO. Miss. State has had some success this season preventing opponents from converting many of their overall field goal attempts. The team ranks #95 nationally in field goal percentage allowed, as AO only makes good on about 41.4% of their total attempts from the floor.

Miss. State doesn't perform as well offensively as they do defensively. The team is ranked 193rd in offensive efficiency, scoring about 99 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Miss. State happens to be one of the very worst in the game when it comes to maximizing the number of shot attempts they get off from the floor. The team is nationally ranked fourth from the bottom in offensive field goal attempt rate with a rating of only 75.51 vs. AO. If Miss. State does have a strength offensively, it would have to be the team's ability to get to the free throw line. The squad has a free throw attempt rate of 34.16 vs. AO, which ranks 20th in the country.
