Army Fan In Disgust

Disgusted with Army's play today and subsequent loss to North Texas, this fan said......

"My daughter just took a steamy milk shit in her diaper. I'm just going to go stare intently at her work, as it's preferable to this hot trash performance.

Nice fumble on a 30-yard pass. You're in AMI til you REFRAD."

LOL!

That's it...I will forever refer to this game as the "The West Point Milk Shit"

I think our defense had more to with Army's bad play than they did.

Sorry, no. Thanks to Army for the win.

Uh, no. We made enough mistakes on our own and still won.

True. While Army was uncharacteristic with Their sloppy play, UNT engineered some of that sloppiness by its play. To say that UNT did not not earn this win with its play or even indicate as much is doing disservice to a UNT defense who stood tall against that triple option offense, an O-line who made plays when it counted, to Wilson (160 yards I think), to Ivery, to Fine and some spectacular play by Jeffries on D.

To see the emotion in person of the Mean Green players was worth the trip. The Mean Green WIN this one by earning it and surprising Army with its speed and and ability to adjust to that triple option.

The Mean Green overcame some untimely penalties, turnovers of its own and two missed field goals.

But, the offense and defense came up big when it counted.

Very proud of this team. Even prouder when I saw some of our players going over after the game to shake hands with some of the Cadets in the stands after the game. Also...no one at this game took a knee during the National Anthem.

Correct. We should have been up by two more touchdowns by halftime than we were....AT LEAST another ten pts. Mason missed a wide open would be TD (or close) and then missed a huge opportunity on the possession with the first missed T Moore fg. I was pretty grossed out at halftime rather than excited to be honest. Really encouraged by the fact that this team can play so much better than it did today. Don't get me wrong, very very proud of the effort on the road but we can execute a lot better and clean up the penalties...we can win 7 or 8. Our oline still has lots of room to improve to make that happen as well but we are CAPABLE. Army played poorly but we are the reason they lost today - not them.

Safe to say we played well enough to beat them, AND they contributed to their loss?

Fair to say for sure.

This is the first time I have seen the D actually go after ball. They wanted take aways and created a lot of the fumbles! GMG

Folks, down the (recent) corridor of years we have handed games like this (multiple mistakes etc) to countless other teams. What say we enjoy this (rare) positive ride on the karma train.

I was impressed by how *fast* we looked against Army ... I've been so used to us looking slow over the last 2 years.

Our D definitely did enough to get Army out of their comfort zone. Our D coaches/players were awesome.

We made plenty of mistakes... multiple cases where Fine missed an open receiver (on the interception, our receiver was open before the ball was thrown - Mason just held it too long). Fine played gritty as always and fought through it. I think the weather really bothered him at times.

Who is Jeffries on defense? @KRAM1, I think you are mistaken on the name but I can't figure out who you are referring to in this case.

I can only tell you what I saw in the game I watched. In the game I watched our defense was, fast. swarming, hard hitting, playing out of there minds, forcing turnovers and pressing Army's offense to make mistakes. Our defense came in well prepared for today and I am very happy with what I saw. At least two of the penalties on our defense were totally wrong but the worst one was followed by a pick a play or two later so it was neglected

Just got home from game. Regarding missed field goals, it was cold, wet, and we were kicking into a strong wind.Our defense played great,got running game going in 2nd half, and we took advantage of 8 Army turnovers. Not the Black Knights best outing, but when you are 20 point dogs on the road you need all the help you can get. Overall, a well deserved win for the Eagles,Lets enjoy.

I can agree with both of these.

My observation was that they were undisciplined unlike in their first six games.

I also did not feel like our offense was terribly effective. As has become the expectation, our D was solid. They gave up a lot of yards, but that was not surprising. Jenkins is a force. Thankfully, their qb had a McNulty arm.

This game had a different feel. During the Marshall game I never felt worried for some reason. In this one, it wasn't the same.

Yes, sorry...definitely meant Jenkins. My bad. Guy had a super game and I type the wrong name. Ugh!

They were running that triple option and capable of reeling off large chunks of yardage. Yep it felt different. Definitely agree with that. Just not your supposition that UNT didn't win, but rather that Army gave it to the Mean Green. They did not...the Mean Green took it away from Army and took home the Win.

Cadets are required to attend all games. And they stay until the end. They conceded defeat vocally and loudly, booing Coach decision to use all of their timeouts late in the game. The men wanted out of there. It was really something to witness.

And to see our team line up in victory formation, on the road, 18 point dogs: priceless.

Admittedly we have an n of 1, but it seems we have found a coach that knows what to do with a bye week.
