Not having Hall is gonna hurt.

Their QB is very accurate(71% Completion) and they're gonna sling it. Not looking good if we continue to play poorly.

mason is accurate with his passes so maybe.

I watched the highlights of the UTEP game and what I found concerning is when the UTEP QB did the sneak into the end zone.  Did you notice the push UTEP got on the line?   It was like we weren't even there.

They Say anything about Mason's Hammy? We relied on the run last Saturday because he couldn't get a good push off his back leg or at least that's what someone said

More like threw off his back leg because of the problem with the plant leg.  Seemed to hamper his follow through.

Littrell getting an early start on No-Shave-November. I like it.

His plant (front) leg.  Good quarterback technique basically uses this leg to help generate more power in throws, at least that's the way I understand it.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.  But there was noticeably less zip on the ball and he still was gimpy on the leg after some throws last Saturday.  Hammy's can linger too, from what I've heard.

That being said, I think Mason did a fantastic job at recognizing he couldn't put the same power behind his throws and adjusted accordingly.  Our receivers are going to need to create good separation to help Mason out to ensure a good outcome this weekend.

UNT defensive lineman T.J. Tauaalo delivered an impromptu locker room speech following the game. He implored his teammates to regain the focus they showed earlier in the season.

Tauaalo gained the respect of his teammates in the process. UNT quarterback Mason Fine said that Littrell added Tauaalo to the Mean Green's lineup of captains because of the leadership he showed.

Did anyone else think SL was talking about Jordan Murray on the oline at the end about not reaching your full potential and looking elsewhere?
