My take is that some of our fans are so programmed to bitch, piss, and moan that they can’t enjoy ANY win.     Lose to a superior opponent?  “Why do we play these games?!  We’re so unmatched an

Offense scored 40+, defense allowed only 14. Even if its one of the lower teams in the conference this season, can't expect much more from a game against a conference opponent,

In a kind gesture from ESPNU, camera operators have been honoring Crowd-Avoidance Shots. Glad they understand our fans don't really travel well...from Ft. Worth, Dallas, the dorms.

This week we are facing another backup QB - when is the last time we faced a backup and stopped them?

 

Doesn’t need to be a backup. We haven’t stopped anyone

ESPNU’s cameramen are surprisingly awful

It’s not that they’re awful. They just know they have to cover all the field coz a big play can occur against this defense anywhere, anytime

They could have no QB and just run the wildcat all game and we wouldn't be able to stop them.

I just don't understand it, 1st drive, get burnt by their run game, 2nd drive, defense makes a good adjustment and they go 3 and out, 3rd drive, completely abandon the adjustments that just worked on the previous drive... like what are you doing Caponi???

He doesn’t really know what to do. That’s why you see the same problems week in and week out. No changes to the defense, no blitzing, same result

First and goal from the Temple 6 and they throw it 3 times ?  How do you not run it with our running game ?

I feel like our offense is going to have to score every time they touch the ball 😞

Is it just me or does Chandler tend to hold on to the ball too long ala Dak?

Do you mean they didn't all get excited to see the black uniforms that the players seemingly like so much?

So, will 41 points by the offense win this game ?   Temple gets the ball and if they score, we have a real ball game.

Defense must get a couple stops.  Turnovers by either side will be huge in this one.

Turns out my tv got on a weird setting and I wasn’t getting the full picture.  My apologies to the cameramen.

I left at halftime I have some business to take care of man the crowd just sucks, it looked bad when I was there and looks horrible on TV. That crowd shot coming in to the second half looked BAD. I doubt that if we were 4-1 it would look much better. Just brutal. 
 

On the bright side we are playing better.

      Love me some Chico with the jet black Roy Orbison interim hair. For me Chico is like Creed. I'm not supposed to love them but I do. Coach Canales loved North Texas more than most alumni.

      Earth to GMG

      This world does not exist anymore. It used to, but not in the portal and NIL age of college football. If players cared about coaching staff stability they would not be transferring at the rate they are. If this thinking permeates our AD, then they need to look for a new line of work because that ship sailed. Seriously, how many 17-18 years olds sit down and review the contracts of the coaches to decide which offer to take? High school recruiting should be de-emphasized. It can't go away completely, but building a program through the high school ranks over multiple years no longer works. When recruiting high school players, I think the only "stability" play is academic stability. There are a lot of players that have the skill and ability to play D1 football, but won't make it to the next level. Hopefully they are smart enough to realize that. Sell them (and their parents!) on playing a sport they love and getting a solid education and degree while they do. That's why it's important to continue to improve the academic status of UNT. We're not going to be a Stanford, but improving 4-year graduation rates and tighter admission standards will help.

      AAC Trend - Year 2 of 5 Firings

      At this point in the football cycle, if you fire a coach then you throw away all the recruiting work being done for the following seasons. The portal opens up in just a few days, and most AAC schools build their next years roster in the transfer portal. How hard is it going to be for these programs to build rosters for next season if they dont have a head coach going into the transfer window?

      I hope we lose to Temple

      Remember how much we hated La Tech in the 90’s and ‘2000’s? How we mocked them for stupidly going from an Independent in the 90’s to wasting the mega bucks on travel in the WAC in the 2000’s, and their obnoxious fans coming here talking trash? Then 2012 happened…… https://coachad.com/news/did-louisiana-tech-really-turn-down-a-bowl-game/ They had elevated their program to the point that when they lost the last two conference games of the ‘12 season finishing 9-3, and ending as the nation’s #1 offense, they were so damn upset over it they chose, either directly or indirectly to not play ULM in the Independence Bowl. That announcement was the day I practically fell in love with their school and their program because to me it was the greatest stance on principle and accountability and a standard they felt they had set for themselves and held to. Since then, we’ve been there several times, you and me, and have seen how poor their athletics were funded all those years, which gained even more respect from this college athletics fan. That’s where I am as a fan and alumn of NT right now. Wishing we would set a standard, a high standard and stick with it. Rick
