Zach Orr and Royce Hill really stood out, but a great game overall!

Don't know what game you're talking about. The offense Sucked and the defense played ok. If it weren't for the 2 Pick 6s, NT would have lost.

Congrats on the win guys. Man, that was ugly. I've never seen a worse offense then ours. I feel bad for our D. They gave up 3 points and we lost by 2 TDs...I now understand how you felt watching Dodge-ball. Next year and a new coaching staff can't come fast enough! Good luck the rest of the season.

Dude, there are plenty of things to nitpick, but that's not what this thread is about. It's about celebrating a win.

And by the way, when our defense gets pick 6s, that's a good thing.

I'm fairly sure your defense gave up 17.

Our offense just is really pathetic...two games this season we scored NO points..now this game...thank goodness we have some defense...if this is what we have for offense then I wouldn't look to score too many wins in the remaining season...whats going on Chico? congrats to Zack Orr..Ford,Royce Hill and Delgato...ya'll really did a great job

Pumped about the win! Protect home field for the rest of the year & find a way to steal one on the road. Boom. Bowl Game.

Really glad to see the defensive scores tonight. Those are back breakers for the opposition.

Well, 28 of the 31 points were a direct result of our offense/special teams turning the ball over. When a guy stupidly tries to field a punt inside the 10 on a windy night and your offense takes the ball at the 4, that's hardly the D's fault. So that's 21 of the 31 points UNT scored. The other TD drive was off a short field as well, when the offense turned the ball to you, I believe at the 34. Again, to me, when the offense gives up the ball on that side of the 50, I tend not to blame the D for not being able to stop the scoring drive, but if you want to credit your offense for that one, fine, our D gave up 10 points and still lost by 2 TDs. Still, congrats on the win. Your team took advantage of our mistakes, which is what you are supposed to do. Also, the stadium looked real nice on TV. Hopefully, I'll get to the next game we play there in a few years.

I love my Mean Green, but this fan base doesn't know how to have fun.

No kidding. This board is a drag after a UNT loss and a drag after a UNT win. Who cares if the defense won the game for us more than the offense? It's still a win, which is something we weren't experiencing very often the past five years.

We talk here all the time about how to elevate UNT's football program to respectability. Step 1 in every plan to do that is TO WIN GAMES. If you can't appreciate a UNT win because you've become completely cynical about the program, find something else to do that you actually have a chance to enjoy.

Yes, and if a certain UNT receiver doesn't drop a sure touchdown pass that hit him square in the hands, UNT woulds won by even more. And if we make that field Goal. And if we convert every third down. And if we allow zero yards on defense. And if we gain 1000 yards on offense.

You know what your and my post have in common? Assumptions about things that DIDN'T happen.

Just enjoy a blow out win, for Christ's sake!!

      Mountain West looking to add NIU/Toledo

      When CUSA last imploded both schools were invited to join the MAC as a package. WKU was all in, MTSU was not so they were both stuck in CUSA. N. Illinois , certainly much to my surprise, is moving to the MWC , who might be in the market for another football only school. The MAC bylaws require their members to place all their sports in the conference so unless they are changed N.Illinois must find a new home for their 'others." U.Mass is rejoining the MAC so they probably will stand pat. I think the N.Illinois victory over the Fighting Irish may have gone to their head plus their fans are tired of weeknight games that make it hard to attend for those who live out of town.

      A Volleyball Coach To Consider??

      Hodge has us more than middle of the road in the AAC. We are definitely in the top 3. If it was not for a bad shooting night for our two top scorers against Memphis, we would be at the top.

      Who did better? PAC 12 or Mountain West?

      I can't disagree with anything you're saying if ACC comes poaching and we're sitting here with Rice, Tulsa, and ULM/LAT as our most local conference peers. If that is the case, and it's a somewhat likely scenario, we need to be looking into the PAC as a viable option and not hush-hush turning them down. If anything, we probably should be lifting our skirt a little bit to keep it open as an option.

      Power Conferences making their move to take full control

      Seems the b10/sec are so worried about making sure they generate the absolute most revenue versus their peers that they’ve lost sight of what excites people about college sports in the first place. Until one of them relents and settles for setting caps in spending, and potentially sharing revenue, I don’t see how this changes. I think that the power brokers believe that most current fans will just adopt their local big state or closest big brand and continue to follow college sports. Time will tell if they are right. For me, I will not. If it gets to the point where UNT no longer has a chance to be in the pool, my interest will evaporate overnight. Maybe they don’t care and assume that enough will that they’ll keep growing their own brands and revenues.

      ‘26 S Ricky Giles - SOC

      Appreciate the insight and agree about how we pick our HS recruits. the potential upside is that he apparently has a Purdue offer, so a solid Power gig thinks highly enough of him, too, to bring him in.
