HATTIESBURG — Southern Miss defensive coordinator Tim Billings knows what his team is preparing for this Saturday.
"They're the best offense we've played this year," Billings said Monday about North Texas, USM's upcoming opponent. "You can talk about Auburn and their players as far as offensively, but this is a team that put up 47 points on Arkansas. . .by far they are the most dynamic offense that we've faced to date."
Statistically, it's hard to refute Billings' point. North Texas is averaging 41.5 points per game this season, the best mark in Conference USA and a top-20 mark in the FBS. The Mean Green have one of the most dominant passing offenses in college football, led by quarterback Mason Fine and his 15 touchdowns with just one interception. Fine is averaging 319 passing yards per game, putting him just ahead of USM's Jack Abraham for the best mark in the league and eighth in all of college football.
