82 down and it doesn't look good.

The most disturbing thing to me is the drop off in the discipline.   I mean 4 or 5 penalties in the first half giving automatic first downs?  It might have been more.

Getting beat is one thing.  Giving it away, completely unacceptable. 

7 for 75 in the 1st half. 3 in one drive

Less penalties wouldn’t save NT. LaTech would’ve wiped the floor with NT with or without the flags.

Because i said IMHO Bean was overrated and Aune was better and should be 2nd team.  
Agree, Aune had a great camp and not sure why he ended up 3rd string. Good question.

Regardless, this is embarrassing and we may need to recognize that we are pretty helpless outside of Fine.  Without him, we may just be a bottom ten team.

yeah he wasn't moving

[Cerebus]

Really surprised they went as far as getting the back board out and then let him walk off.

Aune is doing something. Start him against Rice

Yes, if Mason can’t go of course.

Nope keep him for UAB

We got thrown down a flight of stairs today.

[ADLER]

Oddly enough, I blame Seth.

If he had bothered to review the early out of bounds call at the two, we likely would have scored and started this game differently.

He didn't learn from the incident where the MTSU player scored even though he'd clearly stepped out of bounds. Somebody on his staff should be watching the video.

[SilverEagle]

I came back to watch just in time to see Aune hit McCrary (#86) with a great pass and run. I was impressed with McCrary's hustle during the spring. I was surprised how little he played this fall. He looks like a Jason Witten-type TE.

We always do against opponents with more talent. We don't put up fights against those teams. We get absolutely dismantled....

I’m not even watching but sounds like quit. 

A quitter calling out the team for quitting.  Got it.

+1 from me. There were even more incidents before MTSU that he should have learnt this from

What is your problem dude? Calm down, go take a walk or something. You are not guardian of all that is Mean Green. It’s getting old. 

[NorthTexasWeLove]

We trash. That is all. 

[NTSU52]

Everything about this sucks. The uniforms suck, the score sucks, and our new record sucks. Don't let go of Seth just yet, but this is very disappointing.

No one should be.  I think Seth is competent coach but not a great coach.  He only looked almost great because of Fine and the 2 dumpster fires that preceded him.  They have never consistently played up to their potential.  Too many in conference blowouts losses.

Have I mentioned lately that I am SICK TO DEATH OF LOSING TO TEAMS THAT THE GENERAL PUBLIC (not to mention students and alums) THINKS WE SHOULD DOMINATE BEFORE THEY WILL THROW THEIR SUPPORT OUR WAY.

I'll never forget my conversation with my son (a NT graduate) right before we went to a sports bar to watch the NO game against So Miss. I talked about our conference winning streak and how this was our fourth bowl game in a row. He just smiled and said "yeah, but whoever heard of most of those conference teams we beat, and how many bowl games have we actually won?"

I think all fans are a bit flustered at this point.

Thank goodness there's a soccer championship game tomorrow to help take our minds off football. 

GMG!

Feel bad for the fans who drove to Ruston.

Thank you for your sympathies... The Courtyard is very nice though.  The Ritz of Ruston you might say.
