Clash of Titans at UNT Coliseum: Memphis Tigers Take on Mean Green

As the Memphis Tigers prepare to face off against the North Texas Mean Green at the UNT Coliseum, fans are eager to see if their team can continue their recent success on the road. The upcoming game, scheduled for February 16th, promises to be a thrilling encounter.

The Tigers have been showcasing a strong performance in their recent games. Their last three outings have ended in victories, with notable improvements in both offense and defense. In their most recent game against Vanderbilt Commodores, they secured a narrow win with 77 points to 75. Despite being outrebounded by Vanderbilt's 39 rebounds compared to their own 32, they managed an impressive steal count of ten and capitalized on turnovers scoring eighteen points from them.

Their shooting accuracy has been consistent; they shot forty-seven percent from the field against Virginia Cavaliers and maintained that level against Clemson with forty-three percent shooting accuracy. However, there is room for improvement beyond the arc as they only made fifteen percent of three-point attempts in that game.

Defensively, Memphis has shown resilience by averaging nine steals per game over these matches and limiting opponents' second-chance points through effective rebounding.

Playing away at UNT Coliseum could present its challenges as home-court advantage often plays a significant role in basketball outcomes. Nevertheless, if Memphis continues its trend of high-pressure defense leading to turnovers and capitalizes on fast-break opportunities as seen in previous games, they stand a good chance of overcoming any venue-related hurdles.

Fans can catch this exciting matchup live on ESPN+ internet broadcast network. With both teams looking to assert dominance early into this part of the season, it will undoubtedly be an event not to miss for any basketball enthusiast or supporter of the Memphis Tigers.
