I have feeling this game is going to get chippy, but I hope we beat them by a lot.

UTSA has nothing to play for. They're not going to a bowl game. Their team has already checked out. We'll have extra time to prepare.

When our offense comes out fast and punches them in the mouth early like we've been doing lately, they're not going to bow-up. They're going to fold.

This game gets ugly for the birds that don't fly.

Love the only sound coming out of the Ark Stadium was NORTH! TEXAS!...going to be cool to here the same chant out of the Alamo Dome all night long!

I think the opposite. This is their bowl game. They are playing for the their coaches job. This is a true rivalry came. The opposite always happens. We lose to them 2013. Then beat them our 1-11 season. It will be a fun game. I think we pull it out. But no walk in the park

They were playing for legitimacy in 2013. Both teams were flat-out awful in 2015.

Yeah, they'll come out swinging because it's their "bowl game". But unlike ODU and FAU, we'll put up a bunch of quick points on them & they'll start playing VERY chippy and undisciplined. Our guys know this will be coming.
It's gonna be ugly.

Yawn on "rivalry"

I kind of agree. UTSA and their fans hate us. Hate is a powerful motivator. There is nothing for them after next Saturday. Our game will be their Superbowl. I think they will take some cheap shots at our players, and l expect flags to be flying the whole game. If we can keep from playing into their antics and be disciplined, we should dominate them in the San Antonio.

I completely agree here.

If we just walk aimlessly in this game for long stretches, I can see this game going poorly for us. I see a close game, either way.

I have the true belief that the kids know that their head coach ain't gonna be here next year.

GreenTexan13 · November 16, 2018

Still have yet to beat them in Alamo town. Like everyone else said, this is their bowl game. UTSA fans are melting down and the one's that have accepted that they are whipping boys have made it loud and clear that the year could be made up for if they beat UNT.

KFC will be going down 11/24. This is UNT's first win in SA.

Is UTSA in a position to buy out nearly $3 million of contract to fire him?

Amen Brother. I usually meet with a UTSA friend for the game who I have know since my teenage years. He ware Orange and I ware all Green.

emmitt01 · November 16, 2018

They’ll be up for this game. Most of their team enrolled at UTSA with dreams of eventually going to college, so beating us will be a huge deal to them.

Mad Hatter · November 16, 2018

This game worries me. Simply because everyone assumes a win just like ODU. Even the announcer in the game last night said we should be 9-3 going into our bowl game. Tap the brakes.

NM Green · November 16, 2018

We lost to odu because we were so disinterested in the game - even fans. I don’t believe I even saw a “it’s game day” thread. That my friend is why we lost.

There is some venom against the runners. Need to go play our game and beat them down south.

True, I was there and left at half time to go watch another game. Up 28-0, what could go wrong??? Sorry.

I know at least one player treats it like his super bowl every year. Only G5 player on the Butkus award semifinalist list. Something about McCarney not offering him a scholarship despite his talent and being a local kid who WANTED to play at UNT.

Check out the NutsaK fan site. Hard to believe but they had a few good things to say about us. http://www.rowdytalk.com/showthread.php/10492-Sigh-UNT

UNTexas · November 17, 2018

They are advertising this game big lately.

RiseUNT · November 17, 2018

UTSA had 16,000 announced attendance last game and they lost 45-7. They play at Marshall and that game could get ugly. When we play them they will be 3-8 having been blown out 4 of the last 5 games.

How bout we treat this as bowl game number 1 of 2 and have more fans there than UTSA and have a party.

RiseUNT · November 17, 2018

Gotta add that every loss they have has been by double digits and the 3 wins they have are against Rice, UTEP, and Texas State.

I will admit, there ain't any other grocery store like HEB.

southsideguy · November 17, 2018

Thinking about going to the game this year. Anyone know of any nice hotels near the stadium or how far it is from the Riverwalk?

correcamino · November 18, 2018

Please kill us. Don't take your foot off the gas pedal. Shut us out and hang 60 on us. Make it abundantly clear that Wilson is a complete fraud. Inspire our AD to hire a real coach like Litrell instead a f'ing "recruiting guru".
