I am a little surprised by Stoops right now. His team was up 42-0. It is obvious that they can score at will. And yet, they are still throwing the ball to rack up more points.

49-0. Uggghhh.

The biggest difference in this game has been the speed and strength of the OU receivers against our smaller and slower corners. This is one of the biggest mismatches I have ever seen :(

Yup, the talent disparity is incredible. I can't believe Boise State was actually able to beat these guys.

Like everybody even I was surprised that BSU was able to beat OU last year but it has raken BSU time to get where they are right now and even then they still dont get a lot of respect like they probably deserve. BSU has a lot of athletic players to compete with any or most top D1 schools out there so to see them beating any given opponent does not surprise me.

Stoops comments at halftime:

I'm disappointed...we've made a lot of stupid penalties and we aren't be physical enough on the offensive line. We need to run the ball better.

I sure hope they work on the running game a lot more during the second half.

it's our job to stop them, would you rather they neil down every time, our defense needs the work.

482 yds at half project that out and we might see 1000 yds of offense!

Waaaah! Waaaaah!

You don't like it? TACKLE SOMEBODY.

It's the freaking SECOND QUARTER. Good LORD!

Remember, what was it said before this game??? "The defense is the strength of our team!" Okay. Show it.

If the defense is the strength I'd hate to see the weaknesses.

I agree. You can't expect a team to just stop playing when its the first game of the season and that game is just in the 2nd quarter. Maybe they should put in their managers, trainers and waterboys. Maybe we could hang with them if they are not to fast.

Stoops is doing what we would be doing if we could. He is using us as practice. If we don't like it we need to do something about it!

I am sick of hearing poor poor us, they aren't being nice..... that is a bunch of BS, this isn't pee wee baseball there is no mercy rule!

If we don't like what is going on then we need to do something about it! play defense, don't run delays when the d line is spending all of there time in our backfield! Try a quarterback that can make a decision and throw to an open reciever or maybe even take a chance and try and do something rather than jus tstand there or run out out of pocket!

Quit bi***ing, more action!

Stoops could have switched to the ground game once the score got to 42-0. Instead, he chose to run the 2 minute drill on offense. That is what I have a problem with.

What's bad is that their qb's are all fighting for the starting position and will be playing their asses off when they get a chance to play, so I wouldn't count on this getting much better in the second half.

What a day of highs and lows. First, I sign my 7 yr old son up to play in his first year of pee wee football. Boy am I a proud dad. Second, I watch the first half massacre of my beloved Mean Green. What a let down. Now I am listening to the web cast of my other school, Trininty Valley Community college, and the are winning 23-0 with just over a minute to go in the first half. Hope nothing else happens to bring me back down again. Hopefully the Mean Green can at least score to avoid the shut out.

I did not get to see the game at all so I am going by what others are saying.

If Stoops left his starters in after the first half...that is running up the score. From the way the score was going, I would hope he would get the backups in a little early.

To start the second half, you put your 2nd, 3rd string, HS recruits in but you can't really tell them "not to score." Texas did the same thing last year. Their starters sat out the whole second half.

Now scoring on the last play of the game in a blow out (a-la Middle Tenn last year)...THAT is low class.

How bout Stoops blitzing in while up something like 77-10, and getting a much needed saftey! Do you really need to bring the heat while up 67?

See...I didn't know that. I would say that is a little low. I never really thought about the play calling. Calling a blitz when the team is backed up and down by over 10 touchdowns would be like trying to throw a deep pass with the same lead.

Hey, you had to love the maudlin looks of the OU dames after we scored a touchdown. I think they were genuinely concerned.

There's not enough booze anymore to be a North Texas fan.

How are we supposed to go around wearing the shirt? The maybe 10 people who can see through this to another day are not going to be enough to bring that day. You can make all kind of excuses. 'Oh it's Dickey's players blah blah blah.' This program had many months to prepare and should have been able to produce a less embarrassing result. How many of these are we supposed to endure? 65-0 56-7 79-10 on and on. GET WITH IT OR GET OUT OF IT! Oh sure there are the ones who would be happy to get out of it. Well they SUCK. But so does anyone who thinks this is what we should be getting. SUCK!

i still see aggies wearing A$M shirts. they lost to OU just as bad, maybe even worse.

was it bad today? yep...real bad.

but if you're going to be a fan of a team, there will be days like this. UT lost by over 60 to UCLA at home. I could go on and on with examples.

Let's just move on to SMU.

If you think it's so hard then stop.

      Anyone else still rooting for Eric Morris?

      Ummm where did you see that UNT's endowment is that high? Also, I doubt we could have hired Sanders. If you're interested in that kind of a gamble, would you be interested in Jason Witten who appears to be following the Sanders path? We could be his Jackson State.

      I find this thread comical. A program that wouldn't even pursuit Sanders as he was getting ready to leave Jackson State. They held on to Littrell could actually win something in year 7 is going to kick out Coach ELF and his flashy offense after year 2? 🤣. You can't give tickets away because it is so poorly managed and underperforming. If I were tasked with actually sabatoging the program in a covert manner I couldn't do it better. I wouldn't think I would get away with hiring a coach with no college experience as my head coach and retaining another coach for 7 years with nothing to show for it. Hell why aim low, let's go get Jason Garrett. He has NFL experience. 🤣🤣🤣

      That is comical. 🤣 The only thing that makes things move in a capitalist soceity is money. And our Football program doesn't generate it. I refuse to continue to waste my time with a core fanbase that seems not to understand that. A fanbase that 💩on even the idea of pursuing a transcendent force with a home and other local tie in the North Texas region like Coach Sanders. Colorado Budget/Endowment: 2.3 Billion North Texas: 2.6 Billion Colorado Student Enrollment: 37k North Texas: 47 k There is no excuse for a program in a perfect position to reap the most benefit from Sanders jumping up from FCS to FBS for not pursuing Sanders PUBLICLY. Retaining Seth Littrell in the foolish misguided hope that he would go beyond 0.500 vs FBS competition in year 6 was a low aspirational budget conscious decision. It communicated to me this program doesn't care to sell more tickets nor win. Only when have ridiculous nationally embarrassing outing does this program respond with minimal conventional competency, making staffing moves. We wouldn't be debating this level of idiocy any fanboard for a respectable program. Who brings back the WORST DC in all of FBS for year 2 and NOT fire the head coach who wanted to give him another chance when he fails in year 2? My donations will go strictly to the academic side of the house from now on. Long story short if Eric Morris performs in a underwhelming fashion Morris and Jared need to be gone.

      The long snapper had an injury a couple of games ago. I don't think it was serious, but it may have some effect on the recent FG issues.

      Yet they are placing us there via their ranking committee. Regardless, Tulane boxing the truck stops out of the playoffs entirely would be a nice shiny bow on an already unbelievable year.
