NT - Bama Score Prediction Thread

MeanGreenTexan · September 13, 2011

It's like predicting the number of casualties from a train wreck. No one wants to do it, but someone is going to be pretty close to the final numbers.

Surely some of the GMG.com family believes we can win (I'm looking at you KRAM!)...

I'm not one of those:

NT - 10

Bama - 52

No injuries please! Lance runs for over 100 yds. Brelan continues to impress (however Brelan goes balls-to-the-wall 100% of the time, so he is probably the one I'm most concerned with getting injured).

Do we HAVE to?!?! UGH.

Ok.

UNT - 17

BAMA - 52

I'm not sure what makes me thing we score 17 except that they drop down to cruise control with their 3rd string somewhere in the 3rd quarter... Here's hoping.

UNT - 12

Bammer - 56

no injuries... we collect some money and get the he77 out of there as quickly as possible.

North Texas non-revenue sports---$$$$$$$$$$$$$

North Texas football--cool story to tell grandkids

Alabama football--nice win while moving up to #1 on Sunday

Alabama--52

UNT--7

The point spread out of Vegas is 46.

I'd take NT and the points.

Mean Green Matt · September 13, 2011

I'd take NT on the points as well.

For the actual score prediction, hopefully we'll see something like:

NT - 13

Alabama - 42

CMJ · September 13, 2011

Alabama 59

NT 14

UNT Mean Green · September 13, 2011

I don't want to do this, but Alabama 49 North Texas 13. Lance held under 65 yards again, but has a good day receiving. Osborn/McNutly play most of 2nd half at QB...just a guess.

We are so overmatched in the talent department it's not even funny. My hope is we continue to get better fundamentally, don't make stupid mistakes, gain valuable experience at a game speed most of these kids have not experienced, and obviously hope to get out injury-free; as I do feel if we do those very things, fans could be pleasantly surprised on how we beat up a Big 10 opponent next week in Apogee.

Alabama 49

UNT 3

It is going to be tough going on both sides of the ball. That said, Alabama is not a school that typically runs up the score. So, they stop at 49

a lot ( Alabama) to a little (UNT)

I respect all of your opinions, but with all due respect, how do you expect to achieve your point totals that I see for every post? Are you expecting a "pick 6" to get your 7 points. No offense, but your offense is not going to score any offensive touchdowns unless capitalizing off of a turnover deep in our territory.

Your defense is good, but a shutout is rare, no matter the opponent. Doesn't matter how we score them.

If we are competitive I will be happy.

Alabama 35

North Texas 10

pastorgrant · September 14, 2011

Mike Ditka shows up to play in JJ's absence, and fills in for Brooks as well.. UNT 100, Alabama 0 called at the half.

But in all seriousness, I'd take UNT plus the points.

Dogfishhead 120 minute IPA -- 6

Sprite -- 0

In a.game like this, sabin will empty the bench...

You guys will likely just start the fullback fall into the pile in every series... With the backups, practice squad and waterboy playing d in the 4th, anything can happen.

All in good Tennessee fun

meangreendork · September 14, 2011

I want our guys to win just like the rest of us do. I'm hoping for something crazy awesome to happen, just like the rest of us do.

But I'm realistic and don't expect a win. Even if we were ranked, it'd be hard to predict a win against Bama. They're that dominant.

UNT - 7

Bama - 40+

We already know the outcome of the game. No need to be trolling on here and putting more salt on the wound. That being said we can score a touchdown or maybe even two with legitimate drives. But go ahead and celebrate your victory as you're not getting any disputes from the board in that regard.
