Welcome to the game Guyton! 

[Silent Eagle]

We are down 38-16, please don't celebrate like that

Going deep once, beautiful throw, TD. Wonder why it took so long to try going deep

Hey, just 4 more of those.

[TheColonyEagle]

Would've loved to have seen that in the 1st  half 

[cdizzle86]

Don't blame fine. Blame the defense. Period

So that's it?  They are going to be one year ahead of us for eternity?

Well, except for 1990 and 2014, they have always been ahead of us.

Special Teams are atrocious.

I disagree, there was little that Fine did to deserve that criticism here. One interception yes, the other was a fluke. But more importantly we stopped helping him by trowing outside enough on first and second down. With this line you cannot wait for third down to throw particularly when the run isn't actually working.

Look, I hope Fine works out. I'm just not in that camp (of course I reserve the right to jump on the band wagon). I just don't see the "it" factor when I watch him

Touche.

[CMJ]

Our problem is not being able to stop SMU on 3rd and long....a down and distance the defense should be dominating.

[gruu]

No pressure on the Qb...

D has been out there too long. The O cannot sustain a drive

Death, Taxes, and converting on 3rd down against UNT

it's basically a mirror image of last year's game. it's definitely frustrating, but I've seen a lot of bad football as a UNT fan, and I really don't think this compares...they're not bad. 

[UNTLifer]

If our team quit like half of our fans, you all would come unhinged.

Aside for the Sutton non-coverage, there have been guys in positions to make plays and contest. They are getting beat by better throws and catches.

WHY?

[Stix]

Scrappy's wearing a jersey.

[gruu]

Stop these stupid trick plays...

[Silent Eagle]

What the sh!t was that

[UNTLifer]

Quit with the trick plays. 

[TheColonyEagle]

I actually don't mind that call. 

 

Safety 

[outoftown]

That might have been the stupidest play called all evening. And that is saying something

[UNTLifer]

Holding in the end zone. Safety. Bullshit call.
