PSAN-Related Player Ratings - Cumulative This Season(PSAN-O = Offensive impact, PSAN-D = Defensive impact. For PSAN-D, lower ratings are better. PSAN70 ratings are just PSAN expressed as "per 70 possessions" to reflect efficiency. The difference between ePSAN and PSAN is that "e" is enhanced and weighs recent games more - used for Kansas only.) Kansas Impact Ratings

Opponent Four Factor Analysis
Based on the cumulative season boxscore for the opponent, we can look at the Four Factors to see where the team has derived the bulk of its (dis)advantage in terms of scoring margin versus its opponents to date. Here is the breakdown for KU's opponent this game: | | Cent-Ark | Opp | Advantage | | | eFG% | 41.80% | 40.71% | 2.6 | | | TO Rate | 20.06% | 26.97% | 8.5 | | | OREB% | 32.94% | 31.65% | 0.9 | | | FTA/FGA | 27.05% | 16.81% | 4.2 | FT Pct | | | | | 9.8 | FT Attempts | ANALYSIS: Still early in the season, but basically it looks like Central Arkansas has used the FT line as its biggest advantage, with TO's as another significant boost. Even in their lone game against a D-I opponent, those two areas were strengths.
