***OFFICIAL 2017 NEW ORLEANS BOWL GAME THREAD***

[meangreenlax]

That might be game.

[Travis]

Our defense has to be the easiest to game plan for. 

[ForneyGreen]

One of the worst defenses in the country.  Littrelll - please fix this!!!!!

[TreeFiddy]

Wow, our secondary is extremely not good. 

[UNTEngr.#43]

TD troy 😠

[BTG_Fan1]

Lol played 35 minutes and Reff has given up 36 points..

[meangreenacct]

Our coaches have not earned their paychecks after halftime often enough...

[Venson]

Why is Preston covering that guy and why is McClain not over the top? Is that Ref's call or are the players screwing it up?

[Matt from A700]

I don't care if it's 55-50. Let's just win this game.

We actually only have one big hole. How the coaches have stubbornly not switched out Jenkins by now is beyond me (and many otherss on this board I'm sure)

[untbowler]

Who makes adjustments at halftime, not UNT.

To be fair, 14 of these points are more or less on the offense giving up the ball deep in UNT territory.

ALso is Guyton hurt still?   And why very little of Nic Smith???

[817Fan]

This D is terrible

Preston just doesn’t have the ability.  He’s been exposed all year.  

[meangreenlax]

Hot take: Fine looks his age right now. How many woefully underthrown/misthrown balls have there been?

Fine is not as sharp as he usually is...

Yeah both overthrows and underthrows on the long passes

Who cares if it’s on Reff or the players.. These are Reff guys now and he has been playing them all year with the same results.. he could atleast rotate guys but damn he isn’t but sticking with the same guys is on him 100%

He also held them in the 2nd so in 20 minutes he has given up 36..

8 off a play that should been blown dead by an offside.

[Venson]

Definitely need a new DC next year. 

[Venson]

This game is not great by any means, but at the end of the day, I can see some positives to build on for next year if we replace the DC.

[NT91]

Nice

[UNTLifer]

Honestly, the Troy QB and WR are playing out of their minds. Brooks wouldn't fair much better. Jenkins coverage hasn't been terrible but their throws have been pinpoint.
