And Tech spanked Arizona St. Yesterday. Hopefully we've figured this thing out. 4-1 looks very doable now then heading into a bye week.

And we’ve got FAU after the bye week so 5-1 heading into Memphis is a very real possibility. 
 

BUT it’s one game at a time so today we enjoy the feeling of a good win and a 3-1 start. Tomorrow, we get ready for Tulsa.

I'm happy for 3-1 with a loss against a P4.  But let's be honest, we saw weaknesses in the first 2 that were overwhelmed by the play of our offense, and those weaknesses were on full display at Tech.  This win is great.  No question about that.  But let's not overlook just how bad Wyoming is.

Conference time.  Just win, baby!

We play who’s on the schedule. The goal is to win as many as you can no matter how ugly it looks. Believe me, I complained about the ugly win against SFA. I found myself wanting to give anything for an ugly win against Tech. This is a good start for the team.
 

Hopefully, they can be even better moving forward with getting Gabe Blair back, acclimating to more 3-4 type defense. Very happy EM made a coaching decision to change up from the 3-3-5. It takes guts to realize what’s wrong and finally switch it up.

Wyoming lost to a FCS school. 

If the FCS school you’re referring to is Idaho, I am certain fans of Oregon (#9 in the country going into yesterday) still wonder how they struggled to put that now 3-1 FCS team away

And did I mention that Idaho beat Abilene Christian?  The same ACU that was a 2-point conversion away from beating Tech in OT

I predicted 8-4…..looks doable this morning. 

Tulsa, @ FAU, East Carolina, and @ Temple should get us to seven... then just have to win ONE in the four-game stretch of @ Memphis, Tulane, Army, and @ UTSA. And so far that stretch this year isn't looking much like the guantlet it was last year!

One thing I think we can all agree on... there aren't three sure losses left on the schedule.

I have been a huge critic of the defense.  Last night and South Alabama give some hope— but consistency will be key.  We are still giving away 35.5 pts/game. 25.5 pts/game if you take out the TT game.  If we can get our total pts/game under 30 then we have a chance to do well and hopefully keep some of our players.

Spanked? If spanked means Tech beat Arizona State by a touchdown… The same Arizona State team that BARELY beat Texas State 

But I agree that 4-1 is doable.

3-1 is 3-1 no matter who you play. They don't put asterisks next to the wins. 

North Texas football hasn't won a trophy in a while -- since 2014 - jan-1st. I want a league title, and/or a bowl game win. This is a means to an end but I can enjoy the journey along the way. 

@UNT 90 Grad all our wives look a little better this morning 😉

My wife always looks great but much angrier the morning after a NT game because either I wake her up yelling at the tv or I end up sleeping the next morning away (games often start for me after 1am or later, especially early in the season - went to bed around 5am Sunday morning vs Wyoming) or most likely both.

      Evansville (11/5/24)

      I think Floyd is going to be solid at the point. Our backcourt is deep with good shooters. Massey has me really intrigued as he hit the glass and appears to have some hops to him. I think I expected more out of Wright, thinking he was our prized pick up out of the portal. Lorient, even if Hodge says he is the most athletic player he has had during his time here, doesn’t really have a shot and doesn’t go up strong at the rim. I thought Sissoko looked tons better than last year. Better hands, couple of steals and solid play in the paint. He’s not going to be a double double player for us and that’s alright with the scorers around him. Stone still runs to hot. I think in his effort to be our energy/hustle player on defense, it hurts his offensive game. He rushes to shoot or pass and the same dribbling to the basket. How many breaks has he had where he didn’t finish? There is no rhythm to his offensive game and that kills him. He either has to contribute more on offense, or we need to give Cotton and Mason a shot. I don’t know much about the freshman Smith, but he needs to put in some weight and probably get up to the speed of the D1 game. Hope to see some of the youngsters tomorrow night.

      I'll be at The Pit tomorrow, but between my friend group we've got 8 tickets unable to be used. All lower level near the UNT bench - two solos, a pair, and a group of 4. If anyone needs tickets, let me know! Per my ticket rep a ticket for the men's game will also get you into the women's game at 5:30 if you can make it.
