SMU is back home Saturday night for a big conference match against UConn.

The Mustangs (8-2-2, 3-0-0) are off to a great start in conference play. The Huskies (3-3-4, 0-2-1) have admittedly struggled a bit this season, but they are always tough.

It should be a great night for soccer at Westcott Field Saturday night.

Go Mustangs!

I was going to go but got a free ticket to the Texas OU game and never been and had a bunch of stuff over the weekend. Just couldn't get revitalized for this one.

Definitely going to make one soon and will let you know. Add Mustang Bill to the group.
