MUTS Priority Is Pass Defense

[MeanGreen61]

"Our secondary last year was ranked 112th so we have a big hump on our back,'' said senior cornerback Keon Raymond. "We feel like we've got something to prove.''

The Blue Raiders allowed an average of 273.45 passing yards per game and 20 touchdown passes last season. Only five Division I-A teams allowed more passing yards.

The defense was considerably better against the rush, ranked 45th nationally, allowing just 138.8 yards per game.

Because they need all the help they can get to defend our passing game. Heck! run a 3 - 1 - 7 defense, thats more than UNT can handle in the trenches!

who could UNT, for all the non-BCS SBC dwellers they are, have in THEIR backfield?! Heaven forbid our wealth at QB rips them apart with our prolific west-coast offense.

ALL FOUR OF THEM ARE BACK.

I think it was a Dan Marino interview I read once. When asked what it takes to make a pro bowl qb, he responded to the effect of "an all star cast around you".

I can't wait, I'm so excited.
