UNT vs UTEP 2014 Game Thread

[UNT90]

Hope you guys enjoyed that win last week, because it's the last one you will see this year.

[GMoney]

Our lack of overall speed is shocking especially compared to our conference mates. Shouldn't be that much of a difference.

[gradumacated]

The only way we will have a prayer in this game is at least two turnovers and so far we're far more likely to turn it over ourselves than force one. Over/under on the final number of points our D gives up? 45.

[TheColonyEagle]

How much are we getting paid for this game?

[untbowler]

jesus h christ this is pathetic, I hope DMac is enjoying that pay raise because his poor recruiting is showing right now.

No tackling, although it is nice to see a real QB play, Showers from UTEP, some sweet passing and play calling

Yeah but you should've seen how slow we were when McCarney got here....

They are on pace for 70+. If we only give up 45, it probably is in the first half.

We are playing UTEP... Jesus.... Not a P5 or powerhouse school.

All DMac recruits. Slowest in FBS?

We will have a thread (or a 100) after the season to discuss whether Mac's recruiting can turn this thing back around.

Not looking too promising.

Message board posts during a game are fun to read...

Showers has been unimpressive vs just about everybody else...

[gradumacated]

UTEP are embarrassing us more than we did last year.

I honestly can't see how we're going to get out of this predicament in the next few seasons. The only really exciting players we have are a couple of wide receivers but if we don't have a defense that can stop anything, a QB who can't throw the ball accurately, or an oline that can effectively block, what hope is there?

Talk about a program-killer of a season being served up here.

Why is McNulty still in this game!?

[TheColonyEagle]

Whew. McNulty's back in...

[Andrew]

Part of me wants Dajon to transfer and find success in a system that won't hold him down.

[UNT90]

274 yards total offense to 26 for UNT.

Oops, another play, make that 23...

[untbowler]

so why is McNulty still in the game?

Are the coaches blind, ignorant, or just do not give a shit

I was thinking the same thing, these are his recruits right!

[emmitt01]

A friend of mine who is a UTEP grad just called me...said they declared this game "honorary homecoming" right before kickoff

[Withers940]

Canales with his screen plays, someone put a bullet in my head!!!!

[UNT90]

Oops another play, make that 18

[gradumacated]

Does Canales know that the idea is to move the ball forwards, not backwards/sideways!?

This is appalling.

[UNT90]

Come on, Mean Green!

Lets keep it under 60!!!

Canales is gone at the end of the year. Mac will need a whipping boy for a 3-9 record.

If you put Dajon in and he drives us down the field and scores you have to admit you were wrong. Never gonna happen with this coach.

[gradumacated]

Drive the ball down the field. But I don't think Mac/miniMac/Canales have any confidence in him throwing accurately downfield.

And even if that was complete we'd be lucky not to be flagged for illegal forward pass.
