Now if we can win the two 1 pt games then we'd go 7-5 (6-2). I'd love that season.

I'll take 7-5. That would be a very nice iomprovement. And, the good news it that it is very "doable" and possible for Coach Mac and Company. Can they? YES! Should they? Yes! Will they? Remains to be seens but signs are positive!

Would take UNT +23 vs UH

They have UH favored in 11 of our 12 games. The only exception is UH as a 2.5 point dog to UCLA in LA.

Obviously they don't think UH will be 11-1. But using the odds of winning based off point spread (e.g. a 2 point favorite wins 55% of the time while a 17 point favorite wins 95% of the time), they would have us with a 9-3 record. I've seen at least 2 major publications with that prediction.

      Go to YOUTUBE and request Army/UNT highlights. They had them a few hours after the game yesterday. I don't know about the entire game.

      ***OFFICIAL ARMY VS MEAN GREEN IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      The stats with context tell us more. I feel like Army kept the defense on the field on purpose to limit a famously high flying North Texas team. I agree we had turnovers- how effective were they? How many 1st downs did army have in a single drive? Army never turned the ball over on downs with high 3rd down efficiency. We lucked out on the fumble from the RB. How long did it take to get the turnover? How was the field position that the defense earned? Those are better questions. Our defense did a lot and I loved seeing the sack, near fumble (ruled an incompletion), interception, and lack of penalties(that pass interference in the red zone hurt) to deflate their passing game- all 4 attempts. Then, they took us on the ground. Daily slid early to drain more time on a run near the 50. They line up with the same formation for an easy read to gain a yard or two, but, more importantly, the clock starts back up. This was triple option football and I feel like we failed to disrupt their plans. I want us to be better on all sides of the ball. I don’t a moral victory. I want us to acknowledge that Army, just like Tulane 2 weeks ago, used the run effectively against the defense. However, they used it to play at their tempo/style limiting our offense time on the field. I love the heart these players showed. I feel like any one of those teams from Army’s past 13 games are not the caliber we should be proud of being better than (except Coastal and Navy). Watching at army launch the ball vs Temple, Tulsa, & UAB was insane. But Daily is a okay QB that fits the triple option scheme as a runner primarily. Horvath is a miracle for service academy passing. Daily has 51 passing attempts YTD versus Horvath’s monstrous 117 attempts for a service academy. Daily has the same interception rate as Henigan. I’ll see y’all in San Antonio. I’m still excited to see this team play and I know we can win out the season. I just feel like they were par for the course this Army weekend. If anyone complained about the DC all season, this game should not sway someone.
