The 2013 North Texas Football schedule is split evenly with 6 home and 6 road games. Their schedule is highlighted by a trip to national powerhouse Georgia, while overall they will be facing 7 bowl teams from a year ago. Their full schedule is listed below, but first let's preview the 2013 North Texas Mean Green. North Texas has has now had 8 losing years in a row, which includes last years 4-8 mark. Prior to this slum they had won 4 straight Sun Belt titles. This year they return 17 starters and the coaching staff feels they have a good shot at breaking that 8 year slump. The offense returns 9 starters from last year and will most certainly be better than last years group that put up just 20.9 ppg. Derek Thompson and Andrew Mcnulty will battle it out for the QB spot and that battle should continue through the preseason. Whoever wins the job will have the luxury of having 5 of the top 6 pass catchers back from a year ago, plus they have added former Texas WR Darrius Terrel. North Texas did have a solid ground attack, churning out 173 ypg on the ground and they will be returning their top 2 RB's from last year. RB Brandin Byrd had 860 yards and 4 TD,s, while RB Antoinne Jimmerson put up 544 yards and 5 TD's. The OL, which was tops in the country in sacks allowed (6) will be very solid again with 4 starters from that group returning.
