4-0 doesn’t feel as good as it should for some reason...

I think this is an improvement over the Tony Benford coaching.

High intensity first half for the Mean Green. Hope we can keep this up in the 2nd half. This is a very dangerous team.

Can’t wait to see them in person this week. Missed the first home game travelling for work.

And of course the Hawaii halftime show features the inaccurate history of the Mean Green nickname...

Blame that on our athletic department.

Wren has been outstanding at so many things, but there are still a lot of small things that are overlooked by his staff.

That is a weird statement. He played the european U19 championship this summer.

Did you not listen to the last post game? They were talking about him not play and Grant said he hasn’t played competitive ball in 3 years so it’s going to take time to get use to the aggressive play of college ball. (At least that is what he said).

No hadn't heard the postgame yesterday. Still, the U19 europeans was just the summer. I would have thought that counts as competitive basketball.

This Hawaii analyst Tony Sallito in the orange shirt is right, UNT is forcing Hawaii to make a ton of passes which is causing them to make a lot of turnovers.  He said Hawaii should try to shoot the ball sooner and I expect that they will be doing that in the second half.

They definitely haven't perfected everything but how do you see this as an error on the staff? They aren't telepathic. How would the AD staff be expected to know a Hawaii broadcast would spend half time talking about the history of the Mean Green name? I'd blame Hawaii who is doing the broadcast and couldn't perform a simple google search.

Is this game being streamed or on cable?

Watch the Spectrum stream and listen to KNTU. The sound is not exactly synced, but there is a lot more information

Do they award something to the winner of this tournament?

I don't think anyone ever wins it other than Hawaii.  Whomever scheduled North Texas may be regretting it about right now.

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      We do alright with the North Texas chant sometimes, we just need to make it a staple and I think people will do it.

      State fans showed up because they rightfully expected to win in this game. If the AD thinks they're going to depend on people to show up just cause NT has a team there, they are dead wrong. There are a few, but there are many many more who will not show up when they don't think their team will win. There are too many obligations and opportunities to devote precious time and money watching a team lose.

      After Morris and Sheffield transferred, how many here were actually expecting to win? Many of us were just hoping TXST didn't handle us like they did UTSA this year or Rice in last year's First Responder Bowl. Sure, it's the head coach's job to have his team ready to play and in position to win regardless of the adversity faced, but it's still incredible the performance Mestemaker had. Tonight was better than any game C. Morris has had since Memphis. Coastal Carolina lost their starting QB to the portal and got dog walked in their bowl game against UTSA in their own building. Yes, the loss increases our bowl futility streak to an active high, and it sucks to lose to an intrastate program in an inferior conference, but that shouldn't take away from Drew's game. The biggest disappointment to me was how badly we were outnumbered by TXST fans. We went from packing the lower level of the Cotton Bowl to being matched ON OUR OWN SIDE. Like our team, our fans also struggle to wear green. However, there should be optimism surrounding next season. Eric made a poor hire with his first DC obviously, but made the tough (but right) call in getting rid of him. Next year's presumed starter will be in his last year of eligibility, so no losing another 4000 yard passed before the bowl game. If we struggle to another 6/7-win season and bowl loss with next year's schedule, I think Eric's seat should be pretty hot again.

      So a lot of you think that NT is not deserving of your valuable fandom. I actually was proud of the team that continue to battle with a completely revamped lineup including a completely untested QB. Yeah and spare me the low expectations accusations that are usually leveled at anyone that dares to not rave and rant about a loss.
