Shane Buechele didn't turn the ball over one time the entire fall camp, Dykes said of his starting quarterback. The transfer in his first season quickly won over teammates, even though he didn't even compete in spring ball. In fact, he actually came up from Austin several times after taking classes to watch practice and talk with future teammates. Recently, Buechele was elected captain -- the only non-senior to get the honor.

Is this Buechele GOOD? or show how bad the SMU defense is?

That’s the thing about off-season: you can’t read too much into these things.

I like to think they just jinxed the QB: watch him throw 7 INTs against us.

I’m uncomfortable with the 17 transfers applying for “academic eligibility”.  Why does this school receive this preferential treatment?  Dykes is a shyster.  Recruit athletes and build a program, don’t cheat...smells bad.

He played 3 years at UT. Isn’t this his senior year?  I wish him nothing but the best, just not against us. GMG!

Because of the revised NCAA rules, a player can play in up to four games and still have it count as a redshirt year. This revision started this past season.

I bought my tickets for this game yesterday. I can't wait. This will be my first UNT game since the 2013 bowl game. Life took over after college. I moved about 1.5 hours away, had kids, and work nights and weekends. I've requested time off for this game since I have some seniority now but even if I don't get the time off, I'll be at the game. I'll just go to work tired after. Win or lose it'll be a night to remember. I went to every home game in college except for when my brother got married which was Dunbar's last game in green. I can't wait to go to this game and I'll be taking my brother with me. GMG.

That’s right. I forgot about that. Thanks for the reminder!

Sounds like a fun Week 1 for the boys in Dallas...

SMU at Arkansas State, 7 p.m. ET

This will be a tough debut for SMU's graduate transfer from Texas, Shane Buechele. The former Longhorns quarterback will need to lead his new offense on the road against what might be the best defense in the Sun Belt. Arkansas State held each of its final five opponents to 17 points or fewer and gets back most of its starters. It's SMU's dreadful defense that will be the story here, though.

Prediction: Arkansas State 38, SMU 35

      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.

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      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.
