Frel like our defense really let the program down. Huge opportunity lost 4 ever again,,,

Damn offense looks spectacular! Sheffield is awesome! Defense sucks donkey bawls!

Ouch!

Memphis looks gigantic!

Enjoy it very much!

I’m

Absolutely. We now hang with Tulane, Memphis, Army, Navy, Rice, Tulsa, UAB, FAU, Wichita State and the rest. Much better conference.

Me too.

Agreed!

Call me paranoid, but I sense SMU's greasy fingers on this. They know the ACC is about to implode with Clemson and FSU leave (maybe even Miami now they have blown up). They have always been fast friends with Tulane and Memphis from back in the original C-USA and then AAC. So I think they are advising them to hang tight as the rewards for their patience will far outweight the sugar high from moving to the POS 2!

This was a tough one because I think Vegas has given us too many points. But on the other hand, we shot ourselves in the foot last week with all of the interceptions in the 2nd quarter.

Agree on all of your points. My issue is why not listen to what the Pac 12 has to say if you are UNT? There was no reason to allow UTSA to command the airwaves on this thing.

Looks like we have been left behind again. I would hope that Jarrod is on the phone with Texas State as an immediate replacement.

At the game I saw so many flying worms and NTSU shirts and hats. Young people seem to like it a lot. It made me think, should we just embrace this and go back to it now? I think it is very unique and identifiable.

I know this seems premature but my buddy is a fairly good donor for them and he swears they already have for sale signs out at Joey MaGuire's house. He thinks that Eric Morris is their #2 with Kliff Kingsbury also in the mix. They also secretly hope they could convince Sonny Dykes but may not be able to afford him with McGuire's buyout.

TH: Did you always want to become a professional wrestler? KVE: No, actually football was all I thought about. I was probably better in track, but I just loved football. I played fullback at UNT [then North Texas State University]. Hayden Fry was the coach. I was so dead set on being a pro football player, I never even thought about wrestling. But then I had my first knee surgery, and then another, and then two more. In wrestling, you can kind of go to your belly and put your knees out of the way, but in football, tackles and blocks are directed to your knees. Even with wrestling, you’ve got those leather boots on, and we sweat so much in that ring that my boots would get heavy—the socks would soak up that sweat, you know. That’s why I began to wrestle barefoot. Because it felt so good to have that weight off my knees.

To begin the team’s season, North Texas football (1-0) defeated South Alabama (0-1) 52-38 in an offensive shootout after trailing 14-19 by halftime. The catalyst for their second-half victory was the following third quarter, where the Mean Green outscored South Alabama 28-7 to take a 42-32 lead. By the end of the game, North Texas defeated the 68 Ventures Bowl winner 52-38, a stark comparison to last season’s 58-21 loss to the University of California. With 77 new players total, including starters, head coach Eric Morris said he values any early momentum kicking off their season. “For us to go out there and compete together for the first time with so many young guys, so many transfers [...] I think to get a little momentum right off the jump is important for us,” Eric Morris said. While the Mean Green fell into a five point deficit by the end of the first half, the team started out strong scoring on an initial 79 yard drive. At the 2-yard line, junior quarterback Chandler Morris faked the handoff on a read option and ran into the endzone to score the team’s first touchdown. Although the drive was capped off by the quarterback’s legs, it was his arm sustaining most of their drives. Chandler Morris ended his night with a 78 percent completion, hitting 32 of his 41 passing attempts for 415 yards and three touchdowns. His 32 completions ended up in 10 different receivers’ hands, to which Eric Morris credited the quarterback’s poise and the offense’s protection. “Chandler did a phenomenal job of going through his progressions,” Eric Morris said. “When we protect like that, it allows you to do it.” LINK TO MORE: https://www.ntdaily.com/sports/explosive-offense-wins-shootout-in-north-texas-football-s-52-38-win-at-south-alabama/article_f51909e8-6bd9-11ef-a617-c7805976f243.html

Well stated.

Well and let's be honest we didn't have near the turnovers we usually did in that last game.
