Evansville's scoring is a sight to behold. The Purple Aces are 23rd in field goal percentage, sinking an impressive 53.8% of their attempts. This offensive prowess extends beyond regular field goals; as Evansville is ranked 149th in 3-point percentage, successfully making 34.3% of shots from long-range. A significant contributor to scoring is Ben Humrichous, leading the team with 16 points per game and a remarkable 55.6% from beyond the arc. But it's not just about scoring. The Aces dominate the boards, ranking 13th in rebounds per game with an average of 46.

Southern Missouri State is languishing at 351st in field goal percentage, managing to make just 33.8%. This inefficiency is a major setback, especially when compared to Evansville's sharpshooting. However, three-point shooting has been much better as the Redhawks are ranked 79th with a respectable 38.1%. Adam Larson, leading with 12 points per game, has been a key player, but the team needs more contributors to step up. Rebounding is another area of concern, standing at 258th with 31.5 rebounds per game.
