Green Wave Welcomes Mean Green in a Clash of Colors at Devlin Fieldhouse

As the North Texas Mean Green prepare to face off against the Tulane Green Wave at Devlin Fieldhouse, fans are eager to see if their team can continue its recent performance trends. The Mean Green's past few games have shown a mixed bag of results, but with some promising statistics that could play a significant role in the upcoming game.

In their last outing against UAB Blazers, North Texas struggled with turnovers and personal fouls, which contributed to their 62-71 loss. Despite shooting 50 percent from two-point range and an impressive 80 percent from the free-throw line, they couldn't capitalize on these strengths due to losing possession too often.


However, in their home game prior to that against Memphis Tigers, North Texas showcased what they're capable of when things click. They dominated from beyond the arc with an exceptional three-point percentage of 57 and secured a win with a scoreline of 76-66. Their fast break points were also notable at 20, indicating that when they control the pace of the game and minimize turnovers (only 13 in this match), they can be formidable opponents.


Against SMU Mustangs before facing Memphis Tigers, North Texas displayed resilience by maintaining a consistent scoring output across both halves (34 points each) but ultimately fell short by three points with a final score of 68-71. Their three-point shooting was again strong at 52 percent; however, turnovers remained an issue.


The key for North Texas will be balancing their aggressive offensive play while tightening up on defense and reducing turnovers. With Tulane playing host this time around, it's crucial for Mean Green to adapt quickly to both the venue's atmosphere and any strategic adjustments needed away from home.


Fans can catch all the action live as North Texas takes on Tulane at Devlin Fieldhouse on February 29th. The game is scheduled for tip-off at midnight UTC (6 PM Central Time) and will be broadcasted online via ESPN+.
