according to phil steele UNT brings back the 8th most experienced team in FBS this year.
here the experience rankings of all of our opponents
Idaho (120)
Ohio (39)
Ball State (77)
Georgia (61)
Tulane (47)
MTSU (31)
La Tech (126)
Southern Miss (101)
Rice (2)
UTEP (104)
UTSA (3)
Tulsa (84)
Interestingly we are also playing 2 teams with even more experience (Rice and by default, UTSA)
but some other teams we play bring very little experience on top of new coaches, namely southern miss (101st), Idaho (120th), UTEP (104th) and La-tech which combines a new coach with the least experience among players in all the country. That ought to put them at some serious disadvantage.
