Offensive Player of the Week

Lance Dunbar (North Texas, So, RB)

Dunbar tied a North Texas record with four rushing touchdowns and accumulated a career-high 187 yards in the 38-34 loss to Louisiana-Lafayette. It was the third-highest rushing performance in the NCAA this week and the 14th-highest by any back this season. He is now one of only eight backs in Sun Belt Conference history to have four rushing touchdowns in a game and one of only four backs in the nation to do so this season. His 187 yards rushing is also the best by any Sun Belt back this season. He had 32 carries and averaged 5.8 yards per attempt in the game. He has eight of the team's 13 touchdowns this season.

And the best part is, he's 6 feet tall! Amazingly nimble for such a large back.

Kids a beast and he's the one that wore Ball State out on that final drive...Literally ran them into submission...

Love watching him run and excited to get Cam back this week as well!

UNT has some super running backs, and they will only get better. This is a very well deserved honor for both Lance and the team. Nice job...GO MEAN GREEN! A very bright spot after such a tough loss to take.

But, man, what a much improved team we are seeing this season...GO MEAN GREEN!
