Arkansas is about to lose to Colorado State pending a miracle

 

This has to be seen as a negative thing for us, right? SOS doesn't look as good and now Arkansas will have an extra layer of motivation to not get upset two weeks in a row.

SOS is pretty irrelevant for us, given that even if a G5 goes undefeated the CFP Committee still won’t give them any playoff consideration.

They (Arkansas) gave up 25 unanswered points to lose the game. While their rushing game looked better today, their defense is not very good this year (certainly not good enough to be competitive in the SEC).   We will turn a lot of heads next week and I'm even more confident after today's games.  Go Mean Green!

That's kind of what I was thinking but I'm in an optimistic mood tonight so I was considering draft profiles at the end of the year.

Hog faithful won't be terribly patient with Morris. He just doesn't impress me. 

14-22 at SMU. 7-5 last year, with 3 NFL players on the roster. I'm among those who believe Arkansas bought early.

Just win baby, win. Good film against a P5 is always a plus for a G5 prospect

No matter what we do this year we will still have to pick from same bowls and would be lucky to get ranked.

Now make noise this year then we can worry about the strength of our schedule next year. I don't think people understand how irrelevant we have been and that matters the most to the voters. UCF had been awesome for a few years and look where they are ranked.

They were 0-12 two years before their undefeated season last year. Scott Frost was hired as a result of the 0-12 season. I think we make our mark this year.

Well if we do manage to win CUSA it will be pretty important as we fight with the other G5 teams for the New Years six spot.

Point was, if we win this game it won’t matter that Arkansas lost the week before

Really?  Their three years prior to last year were 9-4, 0-12 and 6-7.

Fayetteville is burning.

As someone who has recently escaped living in Arkansas, I would love nothing more to beat the hell out of the Hogs. 

This is going to be a huge test for us. If we beat the Hogs, we are the real deal. Yes, Arkansas is garbage. But, beating SEC garbage is still going to take a huge effort, and a team that is firing on all cylinders. 

I'm hopeful, but UNT is going to have to prove they have it in the tank.

I just don’t see a win.  I wanted to believe, but tonight’s game didn’t give me that faith.  

We still can’t open holes in the running game and Mason spent WAY too much time bailing out of the pocket because Incarnate Word defenders were getting through.  I don’t believe we have the O-line to get the job done.

Just expand your argument one more year.

11-1.  Proves they have been inconsistent, not awesome. I take "a couple of years ago" to mean two or three.   Our last three years are pretty close to their three prior to last year.

      Honest tactical question here…

      Yall can lay the blame of this all at the feet of the Pirate. Leach having some success at Texas Tech, at a time when A&M fell apart and Baylor was non-competitive, while nobody else but Texas was a Big 12 school, led to him getting some kind of legendary status. And his influence on TX HS football went off the charts, because it was “more fun for the kids”…and it basically destroyed the development of linemen on both sides of the ball and made defense a part of the game that just needs a stop or two per half. Hell, Art Briles said that out loud. Just get a stop or two. So now, we get the luxury of seeing a short yardage situation have the QB in shotgun, with a running back behind him, all about 4-5 yards behind the line of scrimmage, trying to get a yard. And then the coaches look exasperated when we don’t pick up the first down/TD, as we get tackled behind the line of scrimmage.

      WBB at Houston (11/24/24)

      I don't hate baseball, but what I don't like is people who seem to want something for nothing . A dream with out a plan is still just a dream and far I have seen no plan to fund a venue. I went to a health care seminar years ago where a woman who's husband was terminally ill. About 70% of a dying patients hospital bill is generated in the last 24 hours trying to keep them alive. She said that she didn't care what it cost as long as she didn't have to pay for it. Based upon lack of football and basketball support at UNT why would you think that baseball " would lure fans in the spring, spur donations, as well as tickets and and merchandise. "However in the future, which is now, universities will be forced to look at at profit and loss is the athletic department just like the rest of the universities departments. My definition is revenues less expenses equals profit or loss.Based upon your definition of revenue sports swimming would fall into that category if we charged dollar to attend a meet, passed around a collection plate, and sold swim caps. In summary UNT has only so many beans in the pot and to waste them on a very expense non revenue sport seems ridiculous.

      If it worked at UIW why not here?

      Ask some of the podcasters, they would say "Oh he has Texas ties", "Look what he did with Cam Ward"

      Honest tactical question here…

      I don't understand the reluctance to incorporate some short-yardage options from under center. You can still be air raid or whatever you want the other 90% of the time. It's so limiting to not have it.
