North Texas - Rice Official Game Thread

[Stix]

No, the "tailgate" was at Little Woodrow's, in walking distance - good turnout

I’m in Florida and a glutton for punishment.  What radio station has the broadcast, it is not on KNTU.

If you're at the game, where are you sitting? I'll look for you. Right now I'm on the north 40, in one of the top rows, in the shade

From the images being shown on the feed you should ZERO problem finding someone in that “crowd”

Worry about this. If we get 4 wins could they keep him one more year?

I was about say I am not worried about them winning.  But I did not have any reason to believe they might win this game against Rice before their QB was just wheeled off the field.  A loss today still shuts the door on the possibility of them wining 4 more games.  But now with their QB and captain going down there is an opening.

[Moobs]

That was an awful looking injury. Hate to see that happen to him. 

[Mike Jackson]

Man I want to give Aune a benefit of a doubt.  But every 5 passes he throws something almost unbelievably bad.

[emmitt01]

If he’s throwing more than 10 yards, Aune is about 70/30

 

 

 

 

70% chance it’s incomplete, 30% chance it’s intercepted

While there's not as many of as in the past, it's still a pretty good NT turnout.  We pretty much have the east side to ourselves - other than the MOB.

Absolutely nothing he has shown gives me confidence he can win a game for you. The best you can hope for is he manages it and we have a good running game but again absolutely no confidence in him winning a game for us

At least defense is physical, but feel bad for the Rice QB

I think another year under Bennett this defense will only get better. However it still seems a little unclear if he will even be in Denton during the offseason. Not even sure he's in Denton for all the practices currently

[El Paso Eagle]

Very nice blocking by our receivers

[El Paso Eagle]

Not a very eventful first quarter. At least we're ahead 

[Pavlovs Eagle]

Man they couldn't get one parabolic mic on the field? This is like watching golf.

No, golf has much better drives

Receiver has his man beat, but don’t worry Rice…Aune will under throw him by 5 yards so the receiver has to stop

... can't even recover a fumble...

You can download The Varsity Network app. It is the Learfield app

Another one of the red flags when it comes to Seth that worries me is his unwillingness to do anything different at quarterback. Not sure if he thinks his job is on the line he would not be trying something different

[NTSU52]

The graphic when the game came back on to start the 2nd said “Rice” and then “Owls” below. Ours said “North Texas” and then “team nickname” below. What the actual hell Espn??

[El Paso Eagle]

Sorry but it looks cheap and Bush League the fact that we do not put our names on the back of the jerseys

Man this thread is dead.  Lots of diehards no longer care to watch.  The ESPN crew talking up our injuries.  For Goodness Sake, I hope that doesn’t save Seth’s job.  

I hadn't even checked to see what time the game was supposed to start.
