The game was ugly as all hell, but it was improvement over SL. We stopped them on 3rd down a lot. We made big chunk plays happen. It was improvement.

Get off the drugs and get yourself clean my friend!

Looked a lot like Seth 2.0 on offense.  On defense the 4 man defensive front was different.   The tackling might have been worse than last year.   The man coverage in the secondary looked better in the first half.  Can't say anything about the 2nd, I left dejected early in the 3rd.

Hey, we all got tired of losing bowl games. That won't happen under Morris.

Oh, don't count us out yet bowl games are created monthly it seems like.  Nothing like reminding us of the mediocre achievements of recent past make us emotional fans long for the days of Coach Littrel.

The defense was in position just can tackle 

They really weren't. Linebackers were virtually MIA most of the game scraping towards wrong gaps or getting dominated by Cal OL. Our 17 players in the secondary were the tackling dummies and if they weren't pretending to tackle they were sliding past the ball carrier like they were playing baseball. Anything outside, our edge defender would be 6 yards from LOS pre snap... as if.

Well it does in relation to your prior statement. lol

No, it really doesn't. Eric Morris did not recruit the portal to shore up major problems on the roster OR he didn't think the roster needed shoring up. I'm not sure which scenario is worse.

You said it looked like Seth's team and I was telling you that's because it's mostly his recruits.

And I'm telling you it DIDN'T HAVE TO BE. 

However, I believe I have found our first Eric Morris loyalist. Why are you so committed to him given what we all witnessed yesterday? Please, elaborate?

      WBB at Houston (11/24/24)

      A home softball game probably averages 500 fans, more for bigger teams. Similar for soccer. I think baseball would attract more, and the AAC is a quality league. Say 1000 attend. That's 1000 more per contest than attend golf, swimming, or track events. Those fans and alums are potential donors, and potential sponsors for advertising, or other sports attendance. Anything to get an alum back on campus supporting the school is a positive. The non-rev sports? Why do we even fund them or need them? Title IX? Check the sports offerings at schools with baseball and Title IX is not a consideration. I say re-allocate resources to revenue sports.

      Around the AAC (11/25/2024)

      at least we're likely get to see what Vice has against Memphis once these Tiger bigs foul Sissoko out by the under 12 timeout.

      If it worked at UIW why not here?

      UIW....no one cares! None of this made him the most qualified candidate to be the head coach at UNT, but here we are. We've regressed significantly under his leadership. He has had no role in developing Rogers or Morris. They were already proven and developed by others. It's not like he discovered a QB no one ever heard of. And for all his ability to identify QB talent, he picked the wrong one for the first two games last year. He is incredibly lucky that Morris ended up here this year. If he's not our QB this season, we'd probably be 1-10 instead of 5-6. Fortunately SMU left the conference and we got to play both Tulsa and Temple twice these last two seasons. He's 0-2 against Vito's "premier rival" and now has us sitting at #97. We took a risk with this hire and it's blown up in our face.

      Honest tactical question here…

      This also roughly coincides with the explosion of the popularity of 7on7 football. BTW, here's an interesting article on it with a lot of local ties: https://www.texasstandard.org/stories/how-seven-on-seven-turned-texas-into-a-quarterback-factory/

      Very few people care about it anywhere. I'm glad when our ladies win, but WBB matters about a third of what MBB matters, and MBB matters about a third of what football matters. Not sure why this thread had to turn into an embarrassing attempt to troll a troll.
