North Texas vs. SMU updates: Live NCAA Football game scores, results for Saturday

Live scores, highlights and updates from the North Texas vs. SMU football game

The SMU Mustangs are 6-1 against the North Texas Mean Green since September of 2015, and they'll have a chance to extend that success on Saturday. The Mustangs will face off against North Texas at 7:30 p.m. ET at Apogee Stadium. While SMU was not exactly top dog last year, they did wrap up the year with a winning record of 8-4. The Mean Green were 6-7 last season and are coming off of a 31-13 win against the UTEP Miners on Saturday.

A pair of last-season offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: SMU was sixth best in the nation in passing touchdowns, finishing the 2021 season with 39. North Texas displayed some offensive firepower of their own as they ranked 15th in the nation in rushing touchdowns, closing the season with 32 overall (top 6%).

SMU has the odds in their favor, so they'll need to guard against complacency. A victory is hardly a sure thing, especially this early in the season, so expect a good game.
