Saw this last night......Is it just me or does Nov 11th seem late for a homecoming game? It will be a heck of a lot cooler and for that i am on board

You can warm yourself at the bonfire (bought to you by the Talons) on Friday night.

I swear it's like the admin is trying to force a rivalry between UNT and UTEP. HC should have been game against UTSA

I think its more about bringing fans to the game... they know UTSA will most likely bring more fans than UTEP, and UTEP(should be) having a down year next year with them losing the stud RB that they had and an 1st or 2nd team all c-usa OL.

Also, if the season is going well, it will build momentum with fans going into the end of the season and hopefully a bowl bid.

UTEP will bring fans either way but I love the date.  We owe the Miners a good ole Denton Beat Down.  Fun weekend late in the season!

      Unfortunately I feel like many folks might rather watch the Notre Dame/Indiana playoff game on Friday.

      Mississippi Valley State (12/18/24)

      We've shown over the last handful of seasons that we have one of the most suffocating defenses in the country. I still think the defining game of this era was the NIT semi against Wisconsin when we held them scoreless the last nine minutes of regulation.

      Breaking: North Texas lands Miami QB Transfer (Free)

      Ok so what's your suggestion? Don't get a QB? I'm confused as to what the end goal of your argument is. Regardless of who we get, we're going to suck? Looks like you're complaining just to complain.

      Not thrilled about playing State

      I'm looking forward to the game. In-state bragging rights up for grabs and a good built-in storyline with the two head coaches going head-to-head. Should be a lot of hype leading up to the game. I know we have a couple games on future schedules, but it would be good to rekindle the series. Give me an annual matchup against Texas State over the likes of South Alabama or any FCS opponent. I'm not going to call this a litmus test for coach Morris, but it's pretty close to one. His tenure has not gotten off to the start we were sold on. In fact it's been pretty disappointing. In two seasons, Morris has a record of 11-13 (.458). Those 11 wins have come against teams with a collective record of 45-87 (.341). His signature win is against South Alabama who finished 6-6 in the regular season this year, but did win their bowl game to finish 7-6 to become only the second team with a "winning" record he's beaten (FCS SFA at 7-5 is the other). Ouch. 2 of the 11 or 18.2% of coach Morris's wins have come against FCS opponents. 4 of the 11 or 36.4% of coach Morris's wins have come against teams named Tulsa and Temple. This is going to be an important game for coach Morris. I hate to utter these words, but is this an "opportunity" game? If we win, he will get a little bit of a lift and goodwill for the program and his tenure so far. If we lose or do so in embarrassing fashion, I think his time here is running out. Of course, I don't know how we treat bowl games anymore. They run the spectrum of meaningless exhibition games to the game that defines a coach's legacy. Should be fun.

      Sure. But this wasn't the first game I have thought this about. My knowledge of hoops is limited and I try to stay out of posting on the BB board for that reasons. Maybe it happens multiple times every game played by every team, but it seems like NT's defense forces this turnover type regularly against good and bad teams. Probably just selective memory. GMG
