Some of the worst defenses in the country reside in the Southland Conference. Houston Baptist and Northwest State can take its places at the head table because each school is a prime example of this.
Houston Baptist ranks 339th in the country defensively yielding 81.1 points a game. The Huskies are capable offensively, though. They've reached 80 points in three of their last six games. The Huskies can hit their 3-point shots and are a good free throw shooting team.
Northwest State permits 79.6 points a game, which ranks 333rd.
The teams met early last month and Houston Baptist won, 99-93, in overtime. There were 168 points scored during regulation.
