SMU Volleyball has a massive matchup ahead as the No. 5 Mustangs prepare to host the No. 3 Louisville Cardinals in a battle between two of the top teams in the ACC.
George Carson is back with another SMU Volleyball breakdown, looking at the Mustangs' recent stretch of play, the matchup against Louisville, and what's ahead in the race for the ACC regular-season championship.
SMU enters the matchup at 20-4 overall and 12-2 in ACC play after bouncing back with wins over Florida State, Clemson, Georgia Tech, NC State, Wake Forest, North Carolina, and Duke. Now, the Mustangs face their biggest remaining test of the regular season against a Louisville team that sits atop the conference standings.
George breaks down Louisville's roster, the players SMU will need to contain, how the Mustangs have adjusted following Natalia Newsom's injury, and what SMU needs to do over the final stretch of the season to compete for an ACC title.
The Mustangs and Cardinals meet Thursday at Moody Coliseum, with the game airing on ESPNU.
