Clash at UNT Coliseum: SMU Mustangs Prepare to Face North Texas Mean Green

As the Southern Methodist University Mustangs gear up for their next challenge, fans are eagerly anticipating the upcoming game at UNT Coliseum in Denton, Texas. The Mustangs have been showcasing a strong performance on the court, with recent games indicating a trend of high-scoring and solid defense.

In their last outing against Murray State, the Mustangs dominated with an impressive 92 points victory. Their offensive prowess was on full display as they shot an outstanding 60 percent from the field and an exceptional 65 percent from beyond the arc. The team also demonstrated their defensive capabilities with nine steals and five blocks, contributing to a significant points off turnovers margin.

The game prior saw another convincing win for SMU against Houston Christian at Moody Coliseum in Dallas. They put up 89 points while maintaining a robust field goal percentage of approximately 51 percent. Their free-throw accuracy was nearly perfect at 90 percent, which could be crucial in close-game situations. Defensively, they were formidable with twelve blocks and thirteen steals leading to numerous fast-break opportunities.

However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for SMU; they faced some resistance during their visit to Florida State's Donald L. Tucker Civic Center earlier in December. Despite winning by double digits again with 68 points scored, their three-point shooting dipped to around 32 percent and free-throw accuracy fell drastically to about 43 percent.

The upcoming match promises excitement as SMU looks to continue its winning streak while maintaining its offensive efficiency and defensive intensity that have become hallmarks of this team's identity this season.
