He had the block that allowed for Fine to get off (and not get destroyed) the big pass to Lawerence as well if you rewatch it

Why no tweet about it? I’m assuming because he is a 2019 commit?

Someone has drank to much Haterade

Also, it good.. think this has to do with us tweeting at the sports people and some UNT alumni having jobs in the sports industry here

Assuming the Iowa State thing was about them beating OU @OU

Great movie

If they do move on, we will still have Fine, Pearson, Bean and Martin (if they sign).. its a good problem to have but let’s worry about this season and the guys on the roster already.. After NSD, then we can worry about who makes it to campus in the 2019 class

How you doing madi

My biggest worry is how Fine plans in less than ideal weather.. he struggled @ Army and @ WKU. He didn’t have his best games, but he is a totally different QB from then and now..

Fingers crossed. We wish him well!

How about we just worry about winning and hoping CUSA has success? The more success in CUSA the better.. even if it means UTSA gets into a bowl

I don't think the current LS (#91) was on the roster to start the year, SL I believe said in his weekly presser that he kid was fishing the week before.. We had Durham (?) and Jake Davis (I believe, #51) but Durham blew out his knee at Iowa, and Davis was hurt.. the current LS #91 has done good for someone who wasn't on the team, but worrisome still

Who do they have at QB? I haven't looked at the FAU stats yet? How is McNeal the WR doing? I can only image the Guyton/McNeal combo that could have been :(

That's what I thought.. When I meant more money for UNT, I want to see CUSA get the largest total bowl game payouts - the lowest possible travel costs.. Yes that doesn't mean UNT gets more money compared to other schools, I meant it as UNT gets more $... Yes in a perfect world I would like to see someone like UTSA go to Hawaii or outside of the country, but Show me the money!

I would hope that is the plan... Need to be head and shoulders ahead, make others catch up with us..

I want whatever gives UNT the most money... I could be wrong, but don't the schools get reimbursed for travel expenses?

UTSA board, said they would like to go back to the New Mexico Bowl (if they get to 6 wins)

I know people don't/wouldn't like it but I would love to play in the Armed Forces Bowl (even if its vs Army)... Really think a lot of people would come out to Ft.Worth to see the game, and would be awesome to see Downtown Ft.Worth in Green... Think it would another way to market the team/school in FTW as well. Also, with how Fine and Guyton are playing right now.. I don't think anyone on the Army Roster can/could match up.. Army is a respectable team and it could/would be a good way to go into the off-season with a big W

Have you tried emailing/calling the team store, AD office about this? Email them with a link to a thread(s) that people talk about it.. I"m sure they can/would love input and the profits as well if they knew.. Hell start a thread and have the sizes as options and show X # of people want these sizes..

@unt_rocket09 when is that 254 tweet going to be coming?

#1stWorldProblems You may not like it, but it gives a TON of talking points/facts for students to give out to encourage other students to come in terms of what happened on Saturday.. It's also a recap as well..

I hope they do something similar again, and would think students will be interested after that UTSA W... Kind of wish we had FAU at home, to see the signs that people would make to mock Kiffin.. Also, the weather should be great as well (I hope)

Hopefully he can come back this year and play.. I would assume he would, because it would help get him ready for next year.. At this point, any production would be great because those DL guys have been getting beat up the past few weeks from Iowa, UAB, USM, and UTSA (teams with bigger and higher run teams).. Injecting a fresh, energetic out to prove people he was worthy of those scholarships would be impressive and a huge advantage in terms of wear and tear on English compared to his DL mates and the OL guys he would be going against

Fine Leads Thrilling Rally For 29-26 Victory Mean Green Scores With 10 Seconds To Play To Beat UTSA DENTON - In a season of gut-wrenching, nerve-wracking, cliff-hanging momentum shifts, Saturday night's was the most dramatic of all. After seeing UT San Antonio take the lead with 3:29 to play, after a North Texas drive was stopped on downs with 1:28 to play, and after the defense gave North Texas one last chance with with 1:07 to play, down four points, no time outs and 98 yards to go, Mean Green quarterback Mason Fine engineered a drive for ages. The sophomore, who completed 10 of his final 12 passes, hit Michael Lawrence for 49 yards to get into scoring position with 32 seconds to play. On third and one from the UTSA 22, the Roadrunners threw a max blitz at Fine, who survived the onslaught just long enough to deliver a pass to Rico Bussey, Jr., coming across the middle. Bussey crossed the UTSA defense, eluded a defender and turned the corner, tight-roping down the sideline for the final 10 yards for the game-winning touchdown and a 29-26 victory over UTSA at Apogee Stadium. "He's just a great person who plays extremely hard," North Texas coach Seth Littrell said of his QB, who threw for 354 yards the three touchdowns. "He put his body on the line and took a lot of shots. He had to stand in there and throw that last route. I just love the way the man plays. He's just a great person to be around." The victory against the in-state rival Roadrunners keeps the Mean Green (4-2 overall, 3-0 in Conference USA play) alone atop the league standings, a game ahead of UAB and Southern Miss, both of whom North Texas has already beaten, and a game-and-a-half ahead of Louisiana Tech, who was idle Saturday. UTSA (3-2, 0-2) has now lost two straight. UTSA quarterback Dalton Sturm appeared to have made the game's big play when he scrambled for 19 yards on third and 17 to spark a late-fourth-quarter drive for a go-ahead touchdown with 3:29 to play, putting the Roadrunners up 26-22. North Texas followed with a drive that died at midfield on fourth down, but the Mean Green defense and three time outs earned the offense one final chance. "They never quit," Littrell said. "They really believed they were going to find a way to win." "We just ran out and did our two minute drill, and executed," Fine said. "We always have confidence. We have all the confidence in the world." "You saw UNT come into a fight against a really good team, and we came out with a win," said wide receiver Jalen Guyton, who had another huge performance with eight receptions for 182 yards and two touchdowns. "It was like a boxing match." A match in which Fine was almost knocked out on the the final play. He was buried under the UTSA pass rush and stayed down while his teammates celebrated Bussey's TD. In fact, he didn't know North Texas had scored until the training staff informed him. "I'm sure he'll be sore tomorrow," Littrell said. "But he's so mentally tough." North Texas started the game with one of its strongest opening salvos of the season. The Mean Green scored more points in the opening period than UTSA had allowed in its four previous first periods and converted more third downs than UTSA had allowed in any game. Those marches included a game-opening 88-yard scoring drive and a 77-yard touchdown pass from Fine to Guyton, but was marred by a high-snap on an extra point that left the Mean Green with a 13-0 lead. But the Mean Green's lead was tenuous. UTSA answered with a pair of scoring drives to pull within 16-10 in the second quarter, then took the lead two minutes before halftime, 17-16. The aggressive Roadrunners defense, whose blitz had been picked up early in the game on multiple third-down conversions, began to get pressure on Fine, sacking him three times before halftime and taking the steam out of the Mean Green attack. After rolling up 239 yards total offense in the first quarter, North Texas had just 8 yards in the second quarter and 19 yards and one first down in the third quarter. But the North Texas defense kept UTSA at bay, holding the Roadrunners to a third-quarter field goal. Eric Jenkins had had two pass breakups, Kishawn McClain had a team-high nine tackles, and LaDarius Hamilton had two big quarterback hurries. Finally, the Mean Green offense began to move. Wilson got the drive going with 13-yard run to the UTSA 42, and, after a 10-yard Nic Smith run, Fine again connected with Guyton on a perfectly-thrown 32-yard touchdown. Another problem on the center snap on the extra point left the lead at a thin 22-20. What They Said "I told him I love him." --Seth Littrell on his exchange with Mason Fine immediately after the game "I saw them coming on a blitz. I just saw the ball coming to me and tried to score." --Rico Bussey, Jr., on his game-winning touchdown "It was a great team win. We got a lot to clean up, but it's much better to clean up after a win." --Seth Littrell Quick Hits North Texas converted five third downs on its opening possession - more than UTSA has allowed in an entire game this season. For the game, the Mean Green converted 9-of-16 third downs. The Roadrunners had allowed a total of eight third-down conversions in its four previous contests and no more than three in any game. UTSA was converting 47.3 percent of is third downs this year, but North Texas limited the Roadrunners to 4-of-14, just 28.6 percent. The Mean Green's 17-play opening drive was the longest drive UTSA allowed this year in terms of plays and time of possession. The Mason Fine 77-yard touchdown pass to Jalen Guyton is the longest play of the season for UNT. North Texas' 16 first-quarter points were more than UTSA had allowed in the opening period all year. North Texas has its first 3-0 start in conference play since 2004, and is 3-0 at home to start a season for the first time since 2013. The 98-yard game-winning drive was the Mean Green's longest of the season. UTSA entered the game atop Conference USA allowing 269.8 yards per game (ninth nationally). North Texas totaled 239 yards of offense in the first quarter and 441 in the game. Senior kicker Trevor Moore moved into first place all-time at UNT in career extra points made. He moved past Brad Bazuldua's (2002-05) 121 points after touchdown with two PATs Saturday, giving him 122 for his career. Fine threw for 354 yards, his 10th career game of 200 yards or more. That's the fifth most 200-yard passing games in school history, moving ahead of Scott Davis (1987-90). Fine also moved into eighth place in career passing yards at North Texas with 3,368 yards, surpassing Ken Washington (1974-77) at 3,040 yards, Riley Dodge (2008-11) at 3,187 yards and Vidal Carlin (1965-66) at 3,233 yards. Next up is Jason Mills (1994-97) in seventh place with 3,981 yards. What's Next North Texas faces C-USA East Division leader Florida Atlantic on Saturday, Oct. 21, in Boca Raton, Florida.
