UNT won the first of those games, a 35-18 stunner at West Point, last fall before the Black Knights came back to beat the Mean Green when it really mattered, pulling out a 38-31 overtime win in the bowl.

Really Vito?!?!!  It's stunning when we win but when Army won "it really mattered".   Why was it so stunning?  We were evenly matched teams and they did turn the ball over six times.  Secondly, we don't make the bowl game without that Army win so which game was more important?  Hint:  the game we won. 

Considering that you write for mainly North Texas fans, you could have taken the positive spin and mentioned that we lost in OT to Army without our starting quarterback.  You could have taken a neutral spin and simply left out "when it really mattered".  Instead, you took the negative spin (which you usually do)  and threw the those three words to dig into the North Texas fan. 

No one is asking for a cheerleader in the press but we don't need a constant negative attitude from our very own beat writer.
