UNT VS. M. TENN

[0footballfan0]

So your line won't have any problems keeping us out of the backfield then?  None whatsoever?  OK thanks for the reply.

You would be correct. No problem.

The smell of confidence is sweet. The smell of overconfidence can be wrenching.

All we have to look at is what happened up in Norman on Saturday. The team with all the superior talent and a new quarterback blew up ~ in a bad way.

We have a new QB and no matter how many talented players we have around him he will still be a "rookie."

I still think North Texas wins, but I also still realize this is a North Texas game in September. Successes in September have not been automatic, especially against a desperate dog on the road (see Baylor '04.)

Plum, you left off the fourth veteran of the O line. Our Center, Chad Rose is the only rookie.

Per MeanGreenSports.com

"Joel Foster also started every game last season for the Mean Green and was able to hone his craft as the season progressed. A converted defensive end, the tackle graded out better than 80 percent in four of the last five games. In his best game of the season, Foster graded out at 89 percent and led the team with 21 knockdowns in the regular season finale at Arkansas State."

I am very confident, and I have posted it because of all the lack of confidence I have been reading about. I would much rather be UNT than MTSU. I say we have the upper hand.

Think of what the MTSU coach is thinking.

1) how do I stop those RBs. Jamerio torched me for 170+ yards last year.

2) how do I cover those very good receivers since I have a team that can't stop the pass.

3) If I lose this game where will I be coaching next year.

4) If I couldn't stop the run or the pass last year, how will I this year with the same guys?

5) I have never beaten UNT.

6) None of my players have ever won against UNT

7) Thank God (notice the capital "G") the SBC put UNT early on the schedule. I hope they start slow this year.

Yup, I think I would rather be UNT.

I also believe that TCU was a much better team than OU. OU DID NOT HAVE SUPERIOR TALENT. Sorry, but unless there is much improvement OU will be hard pressed to win over half their games. I watch some games and say...."there is no way in a million years that this team could win again". This is not one of those games. TCU is the better TEAM. This is not because I don't like OU (eventhough I don't). But they were bad....really bad.

I wouldn't pay too much attention to the line in this MUTS game. It's pretty much a 50/50 proposition every time we play them. I do like that we get them at home this year.

Way to dust off the cobwebs on a really, really old thread.

Man, Harry, you really pulled this from the grave. Talk about a necro.

Funny looking back at some of the names still around

I'm withholding praise until Harry can pull the 2001 voy forum thread vs MTSU out of mothballs.

And to see the progression of Plumm's novellas take form.

I was in the 6th grade when that initial post was made (showing my age.)

Sure made me feel like an idiot since I read it awhile before realizing. Kinda like picking up an old newspaper and reading half of it before the mental bell rings.

If loyalfan or original Eagle Man shows up, I'll circle-star all over this mofo.

[Green Lantern]

All I took out of this thread resurrection is as follows:

1. EulessEagle's prediction skills were terrible.

2. We have lots of loyal fans on this board that have stuck through some rough years.

Whatcha gon' do if EulessEagle shows up? And I am not him.

Playmaker was a poster that got made fun of very often...I remember Quoner usually owned him after one of his innane postings.
