In their previous three games, the Seminoles have shown great promise, with standout performances from their star player Chandler Jackson. Jackson, a talented guard, has been instrumental in leading his team to victory. In the first game against the South Florida Bulls, he contributed 5 points, 5 assists, and 2 steals in just 19 minutes of play. His ability to distribute the ball and create scoring opportunities for his teammates was crucial in securing the win.


In their second game against the North Carolina Tar Heels, Jackson continued to shine with 11 points, 1 assist, and an impressive 11 rebounds. His presence on both ends of the court was felt as he recorded a block and a steal. Despite a tough shooting night, Jackson's rebounding prowess helped his team dominate the boards.


The third game against the Georgia Bulldogs showcased Jackson's versatility once again. He displayed his scoring ability by putting up 15 points while also contributing 3 assists and grabbing 8 rebounds. His efficiency from beyond the arc was particularly impressive, shooting an impressive 50 percent from three-point range.


Aside from Jackson's exceptional performances, other players have also made significant contributions to the Seminoles' success. Baba Miller has been a force in the frontcourt with his rebounding skills and shot-blocking ability. In addition, Jalen Warley has been a reliable presence in the backcourt with his steady playmaking and defensive skills.


Looking at their overall performance over these three games, Florida State Seminoles have shown great teamwork and resilience. They have averaged 69 points per game, with a field goal percentage of 41.6 percent. Their defense has been solid, limiting their opponents to an average of 62 points per game.


On the other side of the court, the SMU Mustangs have also displayed their potential in their previous games. Keon Ambrose-Hylton has been a standout player for the Mustangs, averaging 14 points and 9 rebounds per game. His ability to score inside and crash the boards will be a challenge for the Seminoles' defense.


In addition to Ambrose-Hylton, Chuck Harris has been a reliable scoring option for the Mustangs, averaging 12 points per game. His shooting efficiency from beyond the arc will be something to watch out for.


As both teams prepare for this highly anticipated matchup, it is clear that Chandler Jackson's performance will be crucial in determining the outcome of the game. If he continues to excel on both ends of the court and gets support from his teammates, Florida State Seminoles have a good chance of extending their winning streak.


Basketball fans can catch all the action live on ACC Network starting at 1:00 PM UTC. It promises to be an exciting showdown between two talented teams vying for victory on the court.
