The Mean Green are coming off another rout at home, and are going on the road to face the last undefeated Sun Belt team. Defense is playing extremely well consistently and to the surprise of many, the passing game exploded last week, fueling the blowout.

The Red Wolves are lead by a stingy defense and probably the best QB in the conference. Aplin is like Riley Dodge with a dependable arm, and coach Freeze's spread is everything we wanted coach Dodge's to be.

This one has a possibility of getting ugly like the ULL game unless the Mean Green can duplicate last week's performance. The Mean Green will get to 6-6 this season to become bowl eligible... however, they'll have to reel off 3 straight to close out the year because I don't see this game as a win for the good guys. :cry:

Mean Green: 21

Well, I staying with the Green Kool-Aid and a newly positive team attitude...I'll say the Mean green pull off the upset of Arky State...close. but the Mean green get it done on the foot of none other than Zach Olen....beautiful drive late in the 4th by Thompson and Company, great snap by dependable #78, Troy Kokjohn, perfect catch and hold by Will Attaberry and Zach nails a 47 yard-er to seal the win for the Mean green. Yep, book it Danno...I've seen it in the tea leaves...green tea leaves that is.

UNT: 27

Arky State: 24

The Mean Green fly back to Denton without the plane after this BIG win for the Good Guys!

Ryan Aplin is the best QB in the Sun Belt. Fortunately for us, we have the best defense in the Sun Belt (yes, you read that correctly). I strongly suspect that we put a spy on Aplin, maybe Herron, and if we contain his rushing, which I suspect we will, the score will be...

I can agree with that, but to me this game is all about the battle of the trenches. ASU has a great front 7 and our OL is ok and showing improvment but not great. But I do think our DL can put pressure on Aplin but hes pretty good at moving around the pocket and our DB's cant handle being in coverage for more than 5 seconds.

Ive been a DT fan for a while but this game is all about how our OL can handle the blitz and DT making the right plays. He was lucky last week but if he can manage the game and our receivers make plays well win, but if not its gonna be a blow out. We have to play smart but we dont have to be perfect

I want North Texas to win every game, of course, but I try to be a realist about the outcome. This time pastorgrant seemed to be preaching to me..."Oh, ye of little faith!" so I'm flipping by original thought of an stAte win by seven to a loss by seven.

I still can't see it. We lose big. Sorry guys, I really like this D and the heart of the team. But show me something (anything) on the road.

Sadly, I agree with you, but think it will be a bit closer.

The road break through comes against Troy.

I don't get those who are saying, "I just don't see a UNT win." Folks, have you seen the Belt this year? The parity this year is greater than it's ever been. There is not a single possible matchup in the Belt where it would surprise me if either team won, with the possible exception of FAU against one of the better teams. But even FAU gave ULL all they could handle.

Yeah, ASU beat FIU, who beat the tar out of us. But if we were to play FIU now, it would be a whole different game than it was at the beginning of the year. ASU also struggled a lot more with ULM than we did.

Predicting this game is tough, but I would be shocked if we did not cover the spread by a comfortable margin.

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I saw USF up in the 3rd quarter, but didn't get to see the OT. Any news during the game about if Hawaii will get a new stadium too? I was sad to hear the Aloha Bowl was in such bad shape a couple years ago and it had to be abandoned.

      I’m there with you as one of the few that watched it. I actually didn’t start watching until about 6 minutes left in the 4th quarter, but still got my money’s worth.

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I guess few saw the five overtime slugfest in Honolulu. Oh well I did and it was a blast of a game. Spartans roaring back for Coach Niumatalolo who lost his father last week. A native Hawaiian who played for UH, took his team to the Arizona Memorial for remembrance. Battling it out against a team traveling over 4,600 miles, further than any team this season including that game in Ireland 🇮🇪. That bounce in field goal to send the game into OT as the 4th quarter expired was awesome. A team building, bringing a new stadium to our league, a team seeking consecutive bowl wins after some dire years. Yeah I was one of the few that watched it. Love the storylines and shots of my old island home. It was historic. The most OT’s in bowl history Oh yeah and our conference is 3-1 in the bowl challenge. American rising. GMG

      Dave Fleming New Volleyball Coach

      This is a very surprising pick. Frankly,I don't get it; a very veteran coach; who has coached at the same D2 school forever almost. Why would this coach even be considered a good fit at NT? A .68% winning D2 coach who has apparently never coached at a higher level. Is NT cost cutting? I hope he is wildly successful, it would be hard to not be an improvement over the previous coach. However, this IMO is a very questionable choice.
