FULL TEAM REPORT http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/news?slug=teamreports-2010-ncaab-nax&prov=sportsxchange&type=team_report GETTING INSIDE North Texas, despite its status as a No. 15 seed in just its third-ever NCAA Tournament appearance, might actually have two things in its favor in postseason play. Few teams, including the No. 2 seed in the West Region, Kansas State, can match UNT’s combination of size, strength and experience inside, and the Mean Green’s across-the-board balance on offense could present a challenge to opponents defending them for the first time

"I watch everybody (on television), and they're a pretty good team," Tramiel said. "Their coach is pretty good, their players are pretty good. But we have the same things. We're gonna go out there and it's gonna be a good game ... We're gonna let them know we came to win just as much as they did."

Shortly after the thunderous cheers and applause died at the Pour House bar where the North Texas men's basketball team celebrated the announcement of its NCAA Tournament site and opponent, university interim president Phil Diebel offered his insight to a friend. "We can beat those guys," Diebel said of Kansas State

With the opening round game just two days away, Jones liked his team’s chances. http://www.meangreensports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?&ATCLID=204909079&DB_OEM_ID=1800

However, instead of using a starting gun at track meets, the NCAA has now agreed to use a burglar alarm. Just some light humor

A&M - Rebounds UNT 31 A&M 31 Offensive rebounds - UNT 14 A&M 9 Vs Aggies had UNT down 40-25 at the half. UNT outscored A&M 40-35 in 2nd.

Why cede either ? As a matter of fact, why do you even ask the question ?

Don't forget, Oklahoma State beat you in YOUR HOUSE 73-69.
