Moody Coliseum to Witness SMU Mustangs vs. Texas A&M-Commerce Lions Showdown
As the Southern Methodist University Mustangs prepare to welcome the Texas A&M-Commerce Lions at Moody Coliseum, fans are anticipating a thrilling encounter. The Mustangs have shown a mixed bag of performances in their recent outings, which could make for an unpredictable game.
In their last game against the Flyers, despite a strong start with 37 points in the first half, the Mustangs fell short by two points, ending with 63 against the Flyers' 65. Their field goal percentage was modest at 41 percent and they struggled from beyond the arc with only a 23 percent success rate on three-point attempts. However, they did manage to out-rebound their opponents with 35 rebounds and showed defensive prowess by making ten steals.
The previous home game saw a more favorable outcome for SMU when they faced off against Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks. After trailing in the first half, SMU surged back to win with an impressive second-half performance that led them to a final score of 70-57. Their field goal percentage improved slightly to 43 percent and their free throw accuracy was solid at 72 percent.
However, when playing away against Wisconsin Badgers before that, SMU scored only 61 points compared to Wisconsin's 69. The team's shooting from downtown was impressive at a fifty percent conversion rate but overall field goals were just above average at around forty-five percent.
Moody Coliseum has been kinder to SMU than away venues this season; however, consistency remains an issue for them as they head into this matchup. Fans can expect an energetic battle as both teams strive for victory on December third.
