OFFICIAL LAMAR VS. UNT GAME THREAD

[Caw Caw]

It's nice to confidently outclass an FCS squad. This game will be some really helpful reps.

- Our line still needs some work handling pressure.

- Mason looks less panicky, still taking shots delivering the ball

- That deep ball to guyton was damn near perfect

- Mike Lawrence is going to be our Cole Beasley/Wes Welker

Shanbour in the game!!

Fine and Wilson should be done for the game.

You know what feels awesome? Not just the blowout, but seeing a good QB come in, in a mop-up capacity after seeing the starter have a great game. I know it's FCS Lamar, but we're doing exactly what we should to them.

Fine went and high fived the entire D. Classy guy

[Caw Caw]

I was telling my girlfriend's dad that I don't remember if I've seen our backup QB come in when it wasn't replacing a starter in my time as a UNT fan.

Is Wheeler injured 🤕

We lightly recruited Darrell Colbert Jr, the Lamar QB, but never offered, perhaps because he committed to SMU.

Also, Evan Johnson should be fun to watch.

FCS schools seem to be getting tougher every year. JMU beat East Carolina 34-14 and beat SMU last year. Southestern Louisiana is down a 42-35 to LaLa but at their 22 late in the third. Coastal Carolina is beating UMass in their first game of FBS ball. LaTech just took the lead on Northwestern State 31-24 with a minute left in the third. Missouri State put up 43 on Missou. Pitt needed overtime to beat Youngstown State. Oregon State squeezed by Portland State 35-32. 

I know none of these are not powerhouse programs but Pitt is no slouch and Missou is in the SEC. Most that are struggling are G5s or low P5s but these close games between FCS and FBS seem to be happening more and more...

Why do the KNTU guys keep saying "from Leer Field?"

I think a lot of these schools are benefiting from the transfer rules

 Learfield communications is now handling the broadcast

Thanks.

I agree. All the more reason to be cautious with them.

[outoftown]

Wow. Mitch Cason is the third string QB... ahead of Isadore? and all the others (O'hara is still on the online roster, Pearson I assume they want to redshirt).

Does Isadore have an opportunity for medical redshirt

NT 59-14

Did Learfield drop the cash to have the field named after them?  I don't think so, lr if they did, that was the quietest donation in history.

They do the media stuff for UNT, along with bigger schools like Bama, FSU, etc
