Can North Texas Mean Green Continue Their Winning Streak at Moody Coliseum?

As the North Texas Mean Green prepare to face off against the SMU Mustangs at Moody Coliseum on February 11th, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain their recent winning momentum. The Mean Green's performance in past games has shown a promising trend that could spell success in Dallas.

In their last encounter with the Texas-Arlington Mavericks, the Mean Green dominated with a decisive 78-52 victory. Their offensive prowess was on full display as they shot an impressive 53 percent from the field and an exceptional 44 percent from beyond the arc. Defensively, they were just as formidable, recording nine steals and three blocks while forcing 14 turnovers.


However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for North Texas; in a previous game against Mississippi State Bulldogs, they struggled with turnovers and only managed to score 54 points compared to Bulldogs' robust output of 72 points. Despite shooting well from two-point range (56 percent), their three-point attempts fell short at just 21 percent.


The matchup against Fordham Rams showcased both strengths and weaknesses for North Texas. While they matched up evenly in terms of rebounds and blocks, ultimately falling short by one point with a final score of 59-60. The team showed resilience by maintaining a decent field goal percentage (38 percent) both inside and outside the paint but struggled again with turnovers which have been a recurring issue.


Looking ahead to their game at Moody Coliseum – known for its energetic atmosphere – it will be crucial for North Texas to capitalize on their shooting strengths while tightening up ball security. Fans can expect an intense battle where every possession will count.


The upcoming clash promises excitement and is set to air on ESPN Networks; fans should mark their calendars for this thrilling encounter scheduled for February 11th at 7:00 PM local time in Dallas' renowned venue.
