On the bright side

[Maduro]

Chancellor is one of the top 3 players on the field.

And dont forget next year when we put 2 SEC-sized babes chicken dinner house fed feldts on the o-line

[Maduro]

We have the top scoring defense in d-1 at this moment

[Green P1]

Also positive.. The board is fun again!

[BeanCounterGrad'03]

Didn't commit many penalties.

Also, our defense is our best offensive weapon.

[McKinneyMiner]

Chancellor and Atterberry...

I'll give a semi-pass to Dunbar and Thompson... They were absolutely overwhelmed...

As I write this, Osborn is looking pretty good...

Other than that, what a disaster...

And the pessimist in me says that FIU might be the worst team we face in our first five...

Houston and Tulsa are similar teams with more D-1 talent... Those could be long games...

Still, it's going to be a fun season, and I am positive that they are going to get better each week under McCarney...

[GabeGMG]

As I write this, Osborn is looking pretty good...

I'm afraid to say this...but Osborn looked a lot more comfortable out there.

I'm afraid to say this...but Osborn looked a lot more comfortable out there.

i agree...and he was still playing against some starters. he looked comfortable, knew where to throw and how to throw the ball...maybe osborn against houston...

[golfingomez]

we were not forced to go to our backup QB because of injury... so that's a positive... right?

[UNTP1]

Key word being SOME starters. Thompson saw ALL starters every play he was in the game. And if Thompson had been in he would have completed the pass that Osborn missed on.

[greenminer]

I wonder if some of these players are playing to win, and some of them are playing to not get injured.

[Eastwood Eagle]

I'm afraid to say this...but Osborn looked a lot more comfortable out there.

Agree. He came up there firing the ball and looked confident. Thompson looked timid and sluggish.

[THOR]

true, only some starters...but osborn would have completed the passes that thompson didn't...

[greenminer]

We won the rest of the game 16-13.

[Maduro]

No broken legs

[NT03]

I didn't hit my wife

[NorthTexan95]

We don't have to play FIU again this year.

[ScreamingEaglesFan]

We definitely have hotter coeds, there are no guys on the Mean Green dancing squad, and all of our traffic signs are in english.

[Matt]

Basketball season is roughly 2 months away

[eulessismore]

We'll never kick to T.Y. Hilton again, unless we go to a bowl this year, which is highly unlikely.

[Stan R]

- Apogee stadium is a great place to watch a game, wing-tron was massive and sound was phenomenal

- Braums afterwards provides great perspective. Our team will be fine, this is still a great staff regardless of game one, or game two for that matter.

- Mean green nation is growing

[UNTP1]

We had better jerseys and our stajium is better

[ColoradoEagle]

We'll never kick to T.Y. Hilton again, unless we go to a bowl this year, which is highly unlikely.

North Texas vs. FIU in the Sun Belt Bowl.

[Mean Green 93-98]

Key word being SOME starters. Thompson saw ALL starters every play he was in the game.

I'm hesitant to jump on the "Osborn should be the starter" bandwagon because of how he performed in a game that was already out of reach. But Thompson seems to be more of a pocket passer than Osborn or McNulty. If our O-line is not going to be able to give our QB time to set up in the pocket, it doesn't make sense to have a dropback pocket passer starting.

[Maduro]

we will beat them at basketball

[Keith7]

Our coach had some sweet shades on.
