Spikes Under the Lights will be the first women's college athletic event of this kind at AT&T Arena, which is 23 miles away from where SMU plays its home volleyball games.
Samet Yigitoglu is the only player on SMU's roster this past season to publicly announce that he has transferred to another school. Indiana has been active in the transfer portal, and Yigitoglu is a big pickup by the Hoosiers this offseason.
When SMU joined the ACC, new conference games took the place of long-standing rivalries between Texas schools like TCU and North Texas. These three teams
Southern Methodist University football has a long history of rivalries because the Southwest Conference ended in 1996. They joined the Western Athletic Conference from 1996 to 2004, switched to Conference USA from 2005 to 2012, and then joined the American Athletic Conference from 2013 to 2023.
ESPN has SMU ranked No. 28 in their initial SP+ projections. Athlon Sports has SMU ranked in their top 25 and ranked No. 23 in their college football pre-spring rankings.
With a loss to the Miami Redhawks in their March 18 play-in game, SMU fell short of winning its first March Madness game since 1988. However, SMU did manage to complete its second consecutive 20-win season, both of which have come under the leadership of head coach Andy Enfield.
The closer Miami (Ohio) got to completing an undefeated regular season and earning an NCAA Tournament bid, its critics only got louder.
A look at the matchups between SMU and Miami of Ohio as both teams prepare for their Wednesday night First Four game in Dayton, Ohio. This is expected to be a very exciting First Four game between the SMU Mustangs (20–13) and the Miami of Ohio RedHawks (31–1).
SMU will play in one of the first four games in Dayton, OH, and they will face off against a fan favorite and Cinderella candidate. The Mustangs got rewarded by being selected for the NCAA Tournament, unlike last year, when SMU played in the NIT.
These are the main reasons why the Mustangs might not make it to the Big Dance. The first reason is that SMU was in a good position to make the tournament at the end of the regular season, but they lost more games than they won.
SMU may not have any commitments for their 2027 recruiting class but they are getting in-person visits from top five high school recruits. Joe Tipton from On3 reports that SMU will host two five-star recruits in Reese Alston and Ryan Hampton.
According to Bracket Matrix, SMU is projected to be a No. 10 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Here are some well-known bracketologists and their projections for the Mustangs in the tournament.
No. 12 North Carolina Tar Heels star freshman Caleb Wilson has quite a collection of amazing plays in the 2025-26 college basketball season, but a moment in the second half of Saturday’s matchup against the SMU Mustangs is certainly not going to be part of his highlight montage.
The Tar Heels had no answer for SMU senior Boopie Miller, who went off for 27 points (10-of-13 FG) and 12 assists.
Friday's Holiday Bowl between SMU and No. 17 Arizona wasn't nearly as close as the final score indicated, but it wasn't a stress-free victory for the Mustangs.
Southern Methodist University is paying quite the premium to ensure Rhett Lashlee stays off the college football coaching carousel.
The SMU Mustangs have to feel pretty good about where they're at as the final stretch of this 2025 college football season quickly approaches.
SMU isn't quite finding the same magic of last season. It's good, but tough losses to Baylor and TCU took away the swagger of 2024. However, the two losses came to Big 12 teams.
Baylor stormed back from 14 points down in the fourth quarter to defeat No. 17 SMU in Dallas.
SMU head coach Rhett Lashlee has to feel like he's playing with house money, so it's no wonder he's being brash and bold.
At the 2025 ACC Media Days, SMU head coach Rhett Lashlee delivered a confident and energized message about his program’s rise. After making the College Football Playoff in SMU’s first full season with the ACC, Lashlee took time to reflect on the university’s growth and the opportunities ahead.
Well that worked. Before last season, SMU hadn't won a regular season game against a Power Five-now-Power-Four program against anyone by TCU since 2010.
When the SMU Mustangs took the field for their spring game on April 25, the buzz wasn’t about the quarterback battle or new play calls — it was about a helmet.
Shortly after completing their first season in the ACC, the SMU Mustangs are already facing a significant blow to their frontcourt.
