North Texas Mean Green Football 2024 Predictions and Preview

[cousin oliver]

North Texas Mean Green:

North Texas had a flair for the dramatic in Eric Morris’ first season at the helm. The Mean Green went 5-7, losing by more than eight points just twice and winning by more than eight points just twice, once over a FBS team. “Can’t happen” losses to FIU and Navy really marred what was an interesting season otherwise, with losses by 7 to Tulane, 3 to Memphis, and 8 to UTSA. Those are competitive showings against the top of the AAC.

The Dudes of Denton have a new backfield of former TCU players as they look to replace a ton of lost production and hope that transfers help what was a downright awful defense last season.

Outlook

“All gas, no brakes” for the North Texas team makes them hard to predict. If the defense can even get slightly better, the offense should eat and this could be a bowl team. Right now, I have 5.36 wins, but I think Morris might be building something decent here and the defenders now fit the scheme. I think they could be a slight overperformer and a team I adjust up in my Power Ratings.

Pick: Over 5.5 Wins
