"This is very important," linebacker Shawn Jackson said. "We have to protect our home field. That's first off. We have to get on track with a good win at home and get into conference play."

Tulsa will welcome a North Texas team coming off its biggest victory in years.

The Mean Green (1-3) defeated Indiana 24-21 last weekend and comes to town with confidence.

"We are starting to figure out who we are," said North Texas first-year coach Dan McCarney. "We wish we would have found it out before we went to Miami. You saw more of what we want to be against Indiana. We want to be tough, relentless and physical. More of our guys are starting to figure it out."

Like that quote from Dan. That is what I want to see, also.
