Little Rock vs Arkansas State Key Stats
The Ohio Valley Conference Trojans have a 3-8 record so far this year. Of the 363 Division 1 teams in the country, they are ranked 326th. They haven't shied away from challenging opponents, as evidenced by their defeats of Memphis and Indiana, but victories have been scarce.
The few victories they have had have been against Central Arkansas, Philander Smith, and Jackson State. In terms of defensive effectiveness, the Trojans are a poor defensive club, coming in at number 33. They have an offensive efficiency score of 281.
The Red Wolves have a record of 7-5 overall, although they haven't yet competed in Sun Belt Conference competition. However, it must be acknowledged that they played a very light schedule. Only 8 teams have had an easier schedule than they have, and they have played the 355th toughest schedule in the nation. The Red Wolves' low national ranking of 300 may be due to this.
The Red Wolves have won their last two games, although they did so against Alabama State and Southeast Missouri State, two very weak opponents. In their 68-61 victory over Southeast Missouri State, they covered the spread despite being favored by 3.
