SERIES HISTORY

THE SCOUT
Texas State is coming off a 5-1 win against Stephen F. Austin, although prior to that game the Bobcats dropped a contest by the same score against ASU … TXST took on another Southeastern Conference (SEC) team in Texas A&M Aug. 20, playing to a 1-1 draw … Texas State enters, 3-1-1 and 2-1 at home … The Bobcats were picked second in the Sun Belt Conference Preseason poll .. Kennley Bradley and Victoria Meza were named to the preseason all-league team.
QUICK FACTS

1.000
OU is one of 12 teams nationwide to tout a perfect 1.000 winning percentage. The Sooners join Southeastern Conference (SEC) teams Alabama and Tennessee in that group.
