If Texas was feeling good fresh off their 5-0 takedown of Marshall last Friday, their most recent game may have dampened their spirits a bit. The Texas Tigers took a 2-0 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Jacksonville Fightin' Indians on Tuesday. While losing is never fun, the Tigers can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Texas soccer rankings (they are ranked 567th, while the Fightin' Indians are ranked 29th).
Texas has also been struggling recently as they've lost seven of their last nine contests. That's still a better percentage than their 2-10 record this season. Jacksonville has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six games. That somehow still isn't as good as their 14-1 record this season.
