On to basketball...

I saw Mean Green t-shirts at the Dollar General in Celina, too. No sure why, but there they were!

It seem SL does deal with issues quickly and professionally. The last thing I want to happen is some sort of public scandal that taints all the progress that's been made. I enjoy celebrating the wins, but I don't want to be in the position of feeling like success has to be defended if non-sense makes the headlines.

If so, I hear Fine, Guyton, Torrey & Ejija are also questionable

UDD usually has great analysis IMO - this is no exception. But, I hope their final score prediction is wrong. https://www.underdogdynasty.com/2018/12/14/18140019/new-mexico-bowl-2018-preview-betting-line-utah-state-aggies-north-texas-mean-green-cusa-football For any fan of either team, 2018 was an impressive season to remember, no question. Both teams put up huge numbers and finished near the top of their respective conference, which is always a plus. But on paper, there’s a reason neither team won their conference, and despite their impressive records, they still have some work to do before either can win a conference title. But first, we have one more game in 2018, and it’s going to be a good one. As much as we’d love to leave the prediction there, and go on about how much fun these teams will be to watch, alas, the very nature of sport dictates that there must be a winner. No matter the final score, we’re all winners here. Final Score: Utah State 28, North Texas 24

The Arkansas reference made me think back to earlier in the season. I remember early on, the "experts" said UNT had no chance against Arkansas. Then, as we got closer and more thorough analysis was done, the opinions began to shift. I remember watching the game with the feeling that we had a very good chance at winning it. In reading the expert opinions over the past few days, it seems the same thing is happening. The next 30 hours will be nerve racking! #GMG #TheShowGoesOn

https://sportschatplace.com/cfb-picks/2018/12/15/north-texas-vs-utah-state-new-mexico-bowl-12/15/18-college-football-pick-odds-and-prediction I’m not sure how much stock I can put into the Aggies without Wells calling the shots, so I’ll take a shot with North Texas as I feel the Mean Green can definitely keep this one within a touchdown if not win it outright.

"The Mean Green is going to be ready to run through a wall for Seth Littrell."

https://www.apnews.com/3f1e12cdd1974f68b6d9e24fb721cf80 This bowl has been decided by one score eight times in its 12-year history, often with unpredictable twists and turns. Think “Breaking Bad,” but nobody dies ... NORTH TEXAS 35-28.

I was just watching Campus Insiders (on Stadium) and Brett McMurphy predicted a North Texas upset. He said last year, 5 out of 6 teams with interim coaches lost their bowl game so their should be some inconsistency with Utah. And, he said North Texas will probably rally around Littrell since he's staying. It all sounds like great news to me! #GMG #TheShowGoesOn
