Ohio vs. UNT Final Thoughts

Still shy a few key players or even upcoming and possible new recruits for our being able to be a Road Game juggernaut and I just hope none of us run those strategic talents away with too much fatalistic pessimism. We're already having those who know tell us that more potential recruits and present MG players read this board than many would ever want to believe.

And no, we don't need Pollyanna in every post, either, and FWIW.....what NCAA school message board meets that criteria of always being sunshine, lollypops and rainbows? Plus....I think most would agree that it's also OK to be what some would call being constructively critical, but we have some who just want to keep burning down our Mean Green barn to kill what will probably one day (and soon) be considered to be a few mice of which burning the barn down for so few would be as counter-productive as you could get. I don't understand such non-stop "the Sky is Falling" with almost every one of their post. Wonder if they really think they are helping us to get new fans or border-liners off the fence with that all the time?

If we beat Ball State this Saturday afternoon, North Texas will be 2 and 1 and so will Ball State (who some of you consider being better than Ohio U). Some prognosticators with good overall forecast records seem to not think that of BSU and thus a reason they are predicting a Mean Green win. HINT: Were we suppose to be competitive in that ESPN nationally televised game against the Rajun Cajuns last Fall; you know, the one that we, uh, won?

Our defense needs to score a TD and start making more plays, ie, forcing or stripping the ball for fumbles, interceptions, sacking the QB,, etc, etc, for us to win this game IMHO. In fact, for us to reach .500 and over that will have to be the case most every game we play this Fall. La Tech had a terrible defense last year but their fabulous offense made up the difference.

Again, our fans could really be the 12'th man at the Ball State U game. Did you ever play the game and notice how your adrenaline shot up when the hometown stadium was full and.............LOUD? . Apogee's acoustics affords us that possibility of being the 12'th man you know.

It is a 3:00 PM kick-off and yes, TAMU plays the Crimson Tide about the same time but how many of us have a degree from either of those schools and what else could one possibly come up with which would keep us from supporting the team in green this Saturday?

GMG!

UNT had few penalties than Ohio, which is a change

from the prior years.
