Saturday's game against North Texas represented a chance for the Bulldogs to make a statement. As the four-time defending champion of the Sun Belt Conference, North Texas is the league's standard bearer.

The same Sun Belt which Tech spurned in order to cast its lot with the Western Athletic Conference, a move Sun Belt commissioner Wright Waters has ridiculed ever since.
