Morris challenges team after last year’s “embarrassment” vs. UNT

[Harry]

On facing North Texas:

“It’s their opener. I know those guys will be extremely ready to go, especially opening up the season. I’m going to challenge our guys with the embarrassment that they had up there. Watching that game from last year was very disheartening. Our guys will be excited about getting back on the field for a Saturday night game and perform in front of our fans and our crowd, which I thought was outstanding.”

On if having a bye week to open the season gives North Texas an advantage:

“I guess it’s a little bit of an advantage because they got to see the personnel we have on the field and watch us play. I guess that’s an advantage. If that were us, I would definitely be saying it’s an advantage. But in the same sense, as a coach, you always try to get that first game out of your system because there are a lot of things that are unknown in your first ball game, especially a first ball game on the road.”
