Clash at UNT Coliseum: SMU Mustangs Set to Battle North Texas Mean Green

As the Southern Methodist University Mustangs gear up for their next challenge against the North Texas Mean Green at UNT Coliseum, fans are buzzing with anticipation. The Mustangs have been on a tear lately, and their recent performances suggest that they could very well continue their winning ways.


North Texas Mean Green VS SMU Mustangs

In their last outing on December 22 against Murray State, the Mustangs showcased an offensive clinic, putting up an impressive 92 points. Their shooting was nothing short of spectacular; they hit 65 percent from beyond the arc and maintained a field goal percentage of nearly 60 percent throughout the game. With such firepower, it's hard to see how the Mean Green can contain them.


The defensive prowess of SMU cannot be overlooked either. In a dominant display against Houston Christian on December 20, they racked up an astonishing 12 blocks and swiped away possession with 13 steals. This level of defensive intensity could spell trouble for any team looking to establish rhythm offensively.


However, it would be unwise to underestimate North Texas Mean Green's ability to compete. They will have home-court advantage and undoubtedly come prepared with strategies aimed at disrupting SMU's flow. But given that in one of SMU’s recent games – specifically on December 17 against Florida State – they managed to secure a win despite less than stellar shooting from three-point range (32 percent), it shows that this team knows how to grind out victories even when not firing on all cylinders.


The upcoming game promises to be an exciting affair as both teams vie for supremacy on January 26th at UNT Coliseum in Denton, TX. Fans eager not to miss this matchup can catch all the action live on ESPN2 starting at 7:00 PM EST (6:00 PM CST). With both teams looking sharp and ready for battle, this is one game you won't want to miss!
