DENTON — The UNT men's basketball team hosts American Athletic Conference undefeated Rice Owls Wednesday night at the Super Pit.
The Mean Green (10-4, 1-1) and Owls (11-4, 2-0) are scheduled to tip-off at 8 p.m. CT. The game will be broadcast on the Mean Green Sports Network, presented by Learfield and on ESPNU.
UNT has won the last two meetings against Rice and eight of the last 10. Wednesday will be the first time the two teams have played in Denton since 2023.
The Owls are under the leadership of veteran head coach Rob Lanier who is in his first season as Rice's head coach after serving as SMU's head coach from 2022-24 where last year he led the Mustangs to a 20-win season and split their series against North Texas. Lanier also served as the head coach at Georgia State (2019-22) and Siena (2001-05).
Rice enters Wednesday's game having won its first two league games of the year. They opened with a 70-64 road win over Tulsa on New Year's Day and a 68-55 home win over Charlotte on Saturday.
After Wednesday night's game the Mean Green have a six-day break before facing East Carolina on the road on Jan. 14.
