Southern Methodist Mustangs vs North Texas Mean Green: Prediction, Head-to-Head, Odds & Stats (Sun, 23 Nov '25)

As the Southern Methodist Mustangs gear up to clash with the North Texas Mean Green in the anticipated NCAA Women tournament scheduled for Sunday, November 23, 2025, one might wonder: which team holds the edge? These two teams, locked in a head-to-head with an even track record of 2 victories each in their last 6 encounters, raise the question of whether past performance can predict the outcome ahead.

Rewinding to their last encounter on Friday, December 20, 2024, the Mustangs galloped to a notable 74-66 triumph on the Mean Green's turf. That game, a hard-fought battle, gave a glimpse into the Mustangs' grit as they secured that victory as the away team. But what do the stats from that match tell us? Interestingly, neither team excelled in certain traditional metrics, posting an identical 0% on free throws and three-pointers, while defensive rebounds and turnovers similarly drew a blank with both sides registering zero.

Both teams have approached this tournament with contrasting spirits from their recent outings. The Mustangs, having faced a setback with a significant 60-91 defeat at the hands of Texas Tech Red Raiders, might need to recalibrate their strategy. In stark contrast, the Mean Green have soared with confidence, whipping the Southwestern Assemblies of God Lady Lions 102-50. Thus, will it be the Mustangs' historical advantage or the Mean Green's momentum that tips the scales?

Taking into account past triumphs, statistical oddities, and current form, the stage seems set for an evenly matched showdown. However, given the Mean Green's recent commanding victory and the Mustangs needing to recover from a hefty defeat, the odds may favor North Texas. If they carry the momentum forward, the North Texas Mean Green might very well emerge as the victors in this anticipated encounter.
