As the SMU Mustangs football team gets ready to play Clemson in the ACC Championship game on Saturday, there is a lot of excitement surrounding them.
DallasThe SMU Mustangs football team is really excited as they get ready to play Clemson in the ACC Championship game on Saturday.
SMU has had an unbeaten conference season in their first year in the ACC. The team only lost to BYU in Week 2 of the season.
After winning the 2023 American Athletic Conference title, SMU rose to the top of their conference.
The Mustangs’ trip to North Carolina for the ACC Championship Game is probably a chance to earn a position in the College Football Playoffs.
In addition to winning the ACC, SMU would advance to the College Football Playoffs with a victory over 18th-ranked Clemson on Saturday.
“They have been given a ticket to the quarterfinals if they win on Saturday night. With the Peach Bowl, Gary Stokan stated, “There’s a lot to play for beyond winning an ACC championship the first year.”
Which bowl game will SMU play in is the biggest issue for North Texans this college football season. The Peach Bowl president believes the following:
To get there, the club is depending on North Texans.
“We need to be able to recruit people from all around Texas if we want to get our program to this stage and keep it growing to the extent we desire. Additionally, we must be able to recruit everyone in Dallas. And for the past few years, that has been our main focus. And I believe that has contributed to the expansion of our program. We are the Dallas team. “We’re not just one part of Dallas’ team,” stated Rhett Lashlee, head coach of SMU.
Although Saturday’s game is the primary event, supporters are also honoring their head coach, who won the ACC Coach of the Year award.
With 64 of the 71 votes, Lashlee became the first football coach at SMU to win the award.
But he’s only thinking about the game.
“The game is thrilling. We have a formidable foe. “They don’t have many weaknesses,” Lashlee remarked.
The game between Clemson and SMU will take place in Charlotte, North Carolina.
On Friday morning, the team’s supporters, family, and friends came together to give the coaches and players a heartfelt farewell.
