1). The offense lines up on the line appears that they are about to hike the ball and then they turn to the sidelines with that "what the frag do we do now" look.

2). ESPNU Announcer: "And on this first possession of the game, the UNT kick returner is taking a major chance running the ball 4 yards deep of the end zone..."

3). ESPNU Announcer: "Nice 2-yard curl route completion on third down for North Texas but looks like we'll need to bring out the chains..."

4). "Nice play there by the North Texas State linebacker...."

5). A halftime promo for UNT that focuses on "The Power of Ideas" and does not include any pictures of the new stadium!!!!

9) The commercial played during halftime includes: "UNT: The Leading University of the DFW Area"

I saw in the new temp presidents email today that he used that phrase. Maybe he thought it was original.

10) Tubby Coleman waiting to return a punt after halftime and we have the momentum.

11) Putting Thompson in at QB for just the last 4 plays of the game...and he drives the field for a TD. :P

"Dadgum, the Tigers are really gouging the North Texas defensive line, Cletus. They have been all day. The Mean Green just can't seem to come up with a stop when they need it. Delbert Jeffries has had all day in the pocket--when he's had to pass."

"First time I've seen this UNT team, Abner. And let me tell you, they really need some more beef across the front. This Clemson ground attack has got to be wearing them down. More from Death Valley after a word from Levi Garrett..."

I don't want to see Parker shred the secondary. I understand he'll get his, but I hope he doesn't just decimate us.

I don't want to see the offense score only single digits.

I don't want to see more than 1 turnover on offense (I really don't want to see any, but against this team, 1 is excusable).

I don't want to see kicking woes.

I don't want to see more than 1 long kick/punt return due to poor ST coverage (again, I don't want to see any, but 1 is excusable). No scores for Clemson's kick/punt return teams!

I don't want to see any injuries.

I don't want to hear ESPNU announcers call us "North Texas State", or any other misnomer.

Lastly, and most importantly, whatever the score, I don't want to see the Mean Green playing below 100% effort at any point in the game.

If we don't see any of these things, we'll keep this game close, if not have a chance to win.

IT'S ANOTHER MEAN GREEN.....................missed field goal! :o (Oh, wait a minute, the referee now says it was good! HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN, MEAN GREEN FANS!

Seriously, once our young field goal kicker learns to kick field goals w/o a tee (which they do in TX HS FB), I think we will be fine (or at least better than what we've been lateley which has been.......not so good).

GMG!

"UNT comes out of their timeout at their own 17. Flag on the play and it's another delay of game for 5 yards."

"3rd and 15 from the UNT 20 and there's another zone read for a loss of 2."

"10:28 to go in the first half and the Clemson 3rd string looks pretty tired out there."

"Pass is picked off by Clemson! He's got clear sailing to the end zone..."

I would expect to hear this at least once maybe more. McDaniel was in first place most of the year last year in INTs. I think he finished with 8 or 9. and Hall another DB had about 6.

      Surrendering ourselves to a G5 playoff would be disastrous. It would give the P4 all the ammo they need to effectively remove the automatic bid for the highest ranked G5 champ. The correct solution, in today's environment, is to maintain the automatic G5 bid for the main playoffs and have a mixed G5/P4 NIT style tournament as Pernetti suggested. Don't take, add. Wouldn't be a bad idea to allocate future "NIT" and playoff spots per conference based on their previous performances. They do this in Europe for their European tournaments. Each league gets a coefficient rating based on the previous 5 years performance in European competitions. Not performing? You lose spots. Performing? You gain spots. So you know, the ACC going 1-9 so far, the Big12 going 2-7 back in 2022, the SEC going 6-8 and ACC going 2-4 both in 2021 would have some affect on that rating and future potential spots in the playoffs and NIT. No reason the ACC should get 2 spots next year considering this year's playoffs. The rating would just ensure transparency.

      Because the ever present lie of “we could be next” keeps G5 athletic directors, coaches, and fan bases docile. Keep the system just shy of outright exclusion of G5 programs and you can slowly strip away access while claiming that wasn’t the plan all along. It’s why the Power Ball lottery is so popular. Even though the chances of winning are exponentially small for everyone (the G5 programs), everyone will point to that one lady in a far off trailer park (Boise) who hit it big!

      The Mean Green Village needs a couple of more dorms, including a Kerr Hall-esque one.

      Women at Wichita State (12/29/24)

      Time to see how good or bad this conference is. The women (8-4) travel north to face Wichita State (6-7) in the AAC opener. We beat the Lady Shockers in Denton last year, 72-68. At 8-4, the women are tied with ECU for third best nonconference record in the league. Only UTSA (9-2) and UAB (9-3) are better. However, at 17-7, UNT has the best combined men's and women's basketball record of any program in the AAC. Game is at 1pm on ESPN+.
