Houston has always been known to be flakey when playing football they may play one or

two games good and then play down to their opponet the next week. That is what I am

counting on this week.

Houston 31 North Texas 17

Sellout with everyone seeing a competative game.

How do we get to 13 if our defense can't kick field goals?

I suppose we will miss an extra point :(

I don't know why Zach Olen missed two field goals last week when he only missed two last year but don't rag on our field goal kicker. Zach ranked 16th in the FBS last year and is among the best in the country.

i don't recall putting Olen in my crosshairs (yet)... in fact, i thought his 2 pat's last week were absolutely phenomenal and i am certain the voters will give him heisman consideration.

The point is, until the offense proves otherwise i will presume that our defense will continue to score all the points. If it makes you feel better about this scenario - 1 touchdown (extra point succesful) and 3 safety's

Sad that we consider that competitive.

UH 54

NT 17

Bowl-bound Tulsa beat us 54-2 in the first game of a series back in 2005 to score big in regional recruiting. Bowl-bound Rice beat us 77-20 in 2008 in the first game of a series to score big in regional recruiting. In 2011, we play Houston in the first game of a series, who is most certainly going to be bowl-bound...

Just enjoy the wonderful new Apogee Stadium, folks. It will be gorgeous on Saturday and the sound will be awesome. You will forget about Fouts and the sightlines and the track and the bad coaching over the years. Just soak it in--don't worry about what the scoreboard says. Remember that we finally have built a stadium that others want to watch a game at and that it won't sound like a funeral gathering. We don't have a HS coaching staff anymore because we finally decided to pay for an experienced staff. Look for the positives.

Yep, it should be awesome. Right up until about 6:15 pm.

Stolen from a UTSA post.

I'm going to refrain from predicting the score. I'll be enjoying the new stadium and take in as much new food as possible. I'll probably head on over to the fan shop and purchase some gear....might do that during the game. :ph34r:

UH - Beats NT

NT - loses to UH

I say we see an entirely different kind of performance out of our boys and coaches. They just have to coach and play clever. I say we could then win by 3.

Fixed it; and yes, I am now feeling that positive force.

I'm predicting that in an effort to build an in-state rival, Houston will throw the game. Next they will play an unscheduled game against both UTSA and Texas State in New Braunfels on Wednesday night that they will also throw.

I'm with CMJ. Houston beat UCLA at Home. UNT lost to FIU on the Road. Point is UNT is going to beat, and beat badly. Don't know score. If we some how cover the spread in this game consider it a moral victor. If our team, game plan, and coach's show enthusiasm it's a moral victory. If we play like we did against FIU It's going to be an ugly game. Houston will come to play. The cougars want to prove they belong in the Big XII, so they're not going to hold anything back. Realistically Houston can make a good case they deserve to be back in the Big XII. Some of their facilities bite, but if Houston gets back into Big XII you'll see deep pocket cougar donor's coming out of the woodwork to build new stadium (or play at Reliant Stadium), and then a new basketball arena will be next (or Toyota Center here we come).

I'm flying in from New York to see the Mean Green get beat. Mostly I just want to be part of the first game at the new stadium. Hopefully Houston doesn't drop 28 on us in the first quarter and take all the energy out of the building. I just want to see a competitive game. I think I deserve that.

You do know Houston has never been in the Big XII, right?

I am not sure why you are getting -1's for this (maybe the thread title?).

I pooped my pants in a Miami Target store last weekend and that was only the second most embarrasing thing I experienced in Florida last week. That game sucked.

I think your prediction is likely not too far off, though I am hoping we get a few more points.

Better showing, but still a pretty good spanking. We are still a long way from good.

Very impressive, sir!!

      MGN: Post game recap

      Really they didn’t even try. The stats back this up. Our RBs had 12 carries for 53 yards. That’s a respectable 4.4 yards per carry. Not amazing but solid enough to take a little pressure off the passing game. By comparison, TxSt averaged 4.6 but they ended up with over 200 yards because they stuck with the run. The running game didn’t struggle. Morris gave up on it before it could struggle because he doesn’t value the run game. Or he was so intimidated by a SunBelt team that he panicked?

      We picked the wrong quarterback

      The problem wasn’t the QB but rather the game plan. Or more specifically the head coach. I still don’t understand why you build your game plan around a rookie walk-on qb. They barely even tried to run the ball. The stat sheet shows 25 rushing attempts but around 6-7 of those were passing plays when the qb scrambled due to the breakdown of the pass blocking or that abortion of a WR pass with Young. Our RBs had 12 carries. Twelve. Stupid.

      MGN: Post game recap

      Run game definitely struggled. Observation from a lowly fan was the center's snaps were not crisp. There was the bad snap that hit the turf that Mestemaker recovered but there were several others that weren't on target that visibly caused timing to be off. Couple that with the DL regularly being in our backfield right after the snap and it's hard to run. I may be mixing games but I think even remember a TX State player practically meeting our RB at a hand-off. Mestemaker pulled it back and got taken down by a few defenders but there was just no room to get things going on the ground.

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      If we struggle to another six win season then Morris has to go. Not a “hot seat” let’s see how year four goes.

      EM is the qb whisperer

      Untjim: Texas/Oklahoma doesn't produce great linemen anymore so we can't have great defenses. Me: how does UTSA and Texas State do it? Rick: defense Untjim: he doesn't want to hear it Hear what? Y'all are simultaneously saying the state doesn't produce great linemen which is necessary for a good defense but then say other G5 teams in our same state with our same pool of players are succeeding because of defense. Again, if they can do it why can't we? What's their excuse?
