This has to be one of the most disappointing UNT losses I can recall

I've mentioned this before, but Mac didn't come out of camp with a prepared team! Period. That includes knowing which players can play and which coaches can coach. It has been pathetic, especially coming off the bowl win.

...but maybe next year...

Rice loss was bad, but there were outside influences that factored in to that debacle, specifically the infamous Dodge/RV drug test of the entire team.

UAB is a team with a first year coach that only won one game against a fb division team last year, a three point victory over FIU; while giving up over 50 points in 6 games. I don't think that monstrosity they play in and their fan support gives them any favors either.

Picking between bad football losses at NT is a colossal task, but this ranks high and I am not sure I have ever seen a worst QB performance.

Agreed with everything you said until you got to the last sentence. 3/15 17 yards 4 ints will ring in my head forever.

Uh yeah, I kept wondering that while looking at a crowd that must have consisted largely of parents of players and band members. Really got tired of looking at some statue that depicted...a trailblazer, I guess.

That would actually be Vulcan.

Thanks, I now feel that I learned something from today's game that I wish I hadn't.

...And I have seen a few of them. The turnovers were a killer but again we cannot stop anyone and just can't adjust. You hoped we were past these type of butt whippings but clearly we are not. `I am not giving up but my enthusiasm about this season has really diminished. The rest of this season needs to be finding out about who can make plays. We need to regroup as a program. Something needs to change -- whatever we are doing isn't working. WE ARE BETTER THAN THIS!!! gmg

This is worse than losing to UAB for the first time in 95. We've had bad teams in the past but this team is bipolar. We either play great or get our teeth kicked in by mediocre teams. Hell, we had 15 yards passing against Texas and left with our dignity. I guess this is why I'm she'll shocked. Edited October 12, 2014 by UNTexas

I See your point, but keep in mind that was a 9 or 10 win Rice team that was in a different (read: better) conference than we were when that game was played.

This was a conference foe with a 3-2 record entering the game that included a conference loss to FIU.

I'm think this was worse.

The RIce game was our low point as a Division 1 program. We could have lost that game 100+ to 20, except Rice called off the dogs. RIce--I don't care if they won 9 games or not--should never ebat anyone in this state by that kind of score. The UAB game was terrible--no doubt about it. But we aren't in the midst of winning one game in the crappiest conference in FBS with a HS coach in charge. The only thing that Dodge's 1-11 team has on this is at QB, which is very telling right now. Everything else, no matter how bad it is right now, is still better than that team was.
