Can you be a bigger Drama Queen?

When the Dallas Morning News runs a story about your defense being ranked #119 out of #120 in two categeories..... yards given up and points given up.... I don't consider that being a "drama queen"....but to answer your question... "yes"

Just wait until the polls come out... we will drop from # 116 to # 119 o4 # 120. Yeah, North Texas!!!!!!

Who cares it is a rebuilding year, it not like it is a 10th year head-coach. Game - 5 new coach. We were ranked last year at 112th overall and 119th in offense you act like we have had this big drop off. Christ get a grip.

I think we could beat FIU, Temple, and Northern Illinois.

Well, I guess we will find out about one of those teams soon enough. Hey, I did (and still do) have serious questions about our bringing in all of this "high school help" on our coaching staff, but at this point I'm willing to sit back and give TD the season to show some improvement. We are obviously going through a season of experimentation here in Mean Green Country. Not thrilled with what I saw tonight, but not yet ready to bitch and scream too much and throw in the towel. I just hope that Dodge starts to recognize and rectify any mistakes that he has made here in his first year at this level. At zero and five, I guess that the only positive that I can turn to at this point is the upward trend in the quality of our recruits. I just hope that continues.

I'd say we are one of the best, worst teams as we consistently put up massive offensive output... last night we racked up 527 yards.... we are a top 10 passing team in the nation....excluding OU & Ark we typically score 20 or more points per game.. we set UNT and NCAA passing records..... and all of this in a brand spanking new offense (new everything including coaches) that uses players recruited for a run-base offense... the Mean Green will be a beast of a team once we get more of our spread-offense recruits, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, solve our defensive woes with new recruits and/or a new defensive coordinator.....

Agreed!!! ...the Defense is TERRIBLE, and changes need to start being made, like... NOW... We'd be 3 and 2 rght now with even a halfway decent defense.

Make up your mind! Worst team? No, but our D may be the worst right now.

Who else besides me expected a role reversal? I thought it would take an entire season for this system to plant itself. Yet I hoped we would remain in games with our D. Isn't that how it usually goes? I think this fanbase is just shellshocked - we can only take so much change at one time:

1. new system

2. new D (or lack of it)

3. new coach speak

4. new tailgating procedures:)

5. new beatch points

6. new unis

7. new shade of green

Seriously, I know I am blown away that this doesn't even look like the old North Texas that I have grown up with on both sides of the ball. I enjoy seeing points again. Watching porous D at any level is just as bad as watching Dickey's inability to score.

Dickey will be okay in Utah. If he continues to develop his Jamario and QB, he will have some success in the pass happy WAC, because his approach will be different. Even the Hawaii announcers last night were commenting that this was not the same USU they blew out in Logan last year. I was still living there and witnessed that hapless team. This team has fight, grit and had more success out on the islands than Hawaii or Myself expected.

With that said I am happy where we are heading. Next week's tailgate and game is about family, friends and good times. The game will be fun too but I am not expecting a win the rest of this season. The Ws will come, just not in 2007.

Is it offical yet? Are we the worst team in college football?

It's been unofficial that we're in the bottom 10% of the teams in D1A college football for the last several years, which is why 99% of the Mean Green nation favored firing DD and hiring TD.

Here's hoping TD can get a few Ws this season so none of our pollyannas get crushed by the falling sky.

Never discourage anyone... who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.

The reality is that watching NT football the last several years has sucked. Now, we've got some excitement, and we have been in positions to win games three times this year. I remain confident that the ship will ultimately be righted under TD.

      If Tech steals Eric; should we give Dave Aranda a shot?

      Bad in season speculative topic too far removed from the reality of this season.

      We are going to Idaho!

      Way too early for bowl location speculation. Hell the playoff is still on the table for us if we run the table. And if all the higher ranked G5 lose more games than we do on the way to a AAC title we still might get in. Don't get me wrong I won't scoff at being bowl eligible but I want an AAC title game appearance to get excited about post season football. Far more people will watch that AAC title game than a random mid-week Bowl Game that may not have existed before rivals like UTSA joined FBS.

      Getting Close To Being Ranked (Army, Navy)

      I think the difference I have seen is the defense. When we went to Lubbock, this defense was in shambles. That's not to say they are world beaters or can hang with major programs, but I have to admit, they look different. I think the next 2 games will show a lot more.

      UNT ranked #7 in Texas!

      DCTF - Note: Teams are measured against the overall strength of their conference. 1. Texas Longhorns 5 - 0 Texas was idle in Week 6 ahead of the Red River Rivalry against Oklahoma. The Longhorns should be the No. 1 ranked team in the country by Monday afternoon. 2. Texas A&M Aggies 5 - 1 Conner Weigman and Nic Scourton led the Aggies to a statement victory at home over Mizzou. Texas A&M is 3-0 in SEC play and on a 5-game winning streak. 3. SMU Mustangs 5 - 1 The Ponies are in ACC contention after consecutive wins over Florida State and Louisville. Kevin Jennings passed for over 200 yards and rushed for over 100 in Week 6. 4. Texas Tech Red Raiders 5 - 1 Tahj Brooks topped 100 yards and scored the game-winning touchdown in a late-night victory at Arizona for an important road win. 5. Sam Houston Bearkats 5 - 1 Sam Houston thumped UTEP on the road to start its march towards a Conference USA title in Year 2 as an FBS program. K.C. Keeler deserves his flowers. 6. North Texas Mean Green 4 - 1 The Mean Green was idle in Week 6. They continue conference play this weekend on the road at FAU. 7. Texas State Bobcats 3 - 2 Texas State stopped a two-game losing streak with a rare road win at Troy. The Bobcats remain in Sun Belt Conference contention. 8. Houston Cougars 2 - 4 A road win over TCU propels the Coogs up the list despite a losing record. Zeon Chriss looked tremendous in his first start as Houston's quarterback. 9. TCU Horned Frogs 3 - 3 TCU has lost three of its last four games after the home defeat to Houston. Penalties and turnovers are dooming the Frogs. 10. Baylor Bears 2 - 4 Baylor is now 0-4 against Big 12 foes in 2024 even though the Week 2 defeat at Utah doesn't technically count as a conference loss. 11. UTSA Roadrunners 2 - 3 UTSA gets a chance to right the ship in Week 7 against Rice. The Roadrunners were idle on Saturday. 12. Rice Owls 1 - 4 The Owls had a much-needed weekend off to regroup following the Charlotte loss in Week 5. 13. UTEP Miners 0 - 5 Scotty Walden's group remains winless after five games of his tenure. The second half of the schedule is much easier than the first six games. #13
