This team is young and growing.

They had a lot of opportunities and outplayed UAB, but gave up an easy goal at the start of the game.

Not to criticize NT's best coach, but I wish he would open it up more on offense.

NT showed a lot of offense in the last 10 minutes of the game.  It is not Hedlund's style, but this team can out-athlete most of CUSA.  He is always going to be defense first, but it is hard to score playing as conservative as he does.

I agree.  I have watched us play Tech twice and it is so frustrating to watch us just sit back.  If you just looked at the stats from the UAB game, you would have thought we blew them out.  I would love to see him recruit some speed to throw at our opponents, but it is hard to argue with his results./

In days of old in Denton circa 1971, there was a short-lived Chinese restaurant on the I-35 feeder road, a cuisine very exotic for Denton at that time.  As the dining halls were all closed on Sunday evenings, you were on your own. One night a gaggle of us walked to said restaurant and ordered. The waitress replied, "I don't know how you can eat this crap."
