...is not good enough to win, and is overshadowed by the other QB's performance??

Did anyone else watch the Baylor WVU game? Absolute insanity, I've never seen anything like it before. Geno Smith of WVU threw for well over 600 yards and had 8 TD passes compared to 6 incompletions, and on the other side of things, poor Baylor QB Florence threw for 500+ yards and led an offense that put up 63 points and lost. What the hell did I just watch?

I'm not sure whether to be happy about witnessing something so remarkable, or to call the police to submit an official statement about what I saw as a witness to the brutal assault on both defenses today. 70-63 final, around 1200 combined passing yards...TWO RECEIVERS WITH OVER 300 RECEIVING YARDS.

Seriously, what the hell did I just watch?

North Texas vs either SMU or Navy during the Dodge era.....only with much better players.......and a great audience.

Saw it too... clearly football does not need defense for its entertainment value :)

I saw the Navy UNT game mentioned in the notes at the bottom of the ESPN box score. Jesus H, crazy game.

Did anyone get a load of that crowd? In the words of Stormchaser....Jesus H! Not only was the stadium full but you saw nothing but their school colors.... alternated between sections (in the lower bowl).

I also liked how they placed their band. Right on the ground behind the end zone. That way both sides of the stadium got the full sound.

Im gonna favor WVU. Not because i think they roll up anywhere close to 70, but because i think they'll get to at least 28-30 and I think they can manage to force UT to eat a lot of clock on slow sustained drives.

I say 28-24 or 30-27. Something like that.

I saw that too, and thought for our Tuesday night nationally televised game versus U of Louisiana that that wouldn't be a bad place to put our marching band for just that one game.

West Virginia is beautiful country and I am looking forward to our visits up there against Marshall.

I am starting to like to watch WVU as much as I enjoy turning in to watch Oregon.

I was at the game tonight and did not see any such animal. I saw a defense that was not going to let us lose. It was awesome!

Better video taken from the field.

Think a Mountaineers game will probably have to be added to my list now. I'm a sucker for loud drunken crowd singing.

So after the Fight Song/Alma Mater are played by the Green Brigade, what should we start playing over the PA? I think there is a ton of local music to consider adopting.

Have Eagle1885 whip us up an original number.... Or we could just steal their bit and sing Country Roads.

You guys are getting way ahead of yourselves. You have to get people to go to the games first, before you talk about what to sing as a crowd.

Are we not paying enough attention to you? You're trying a little too hard here buddy.

      Is this what an “offensive genius” looks like?

      The defense was disastrous last night but stop with this "offense did enough to win" crap. A 3 and out and interception in the first 2 drives is not doing enough to win. Were it not for a defensive stop after the onside kick and a Porter 79 yard run, we'd have been down 21-0 and counting. Yes, the defense needs to do more but what high powered offense puts up 7 in a half? This team did the same crap last year. No offense in the first half and then when we put up garbage time points people say "look at the offense." The offense is bordering bad. Tulsa put up 46 on UTSA. Texas State put up 49 and even Rice put up 29. Just to show you where our "high powered offense" stands.

      ***OFFICIAL UNT vs. UTSA IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      Atrocious in "all 3 phases" (that onside kick was a film study discovery by UTSA) but E Morris is just a horrible game manager. Just stupid decisions on multiple levels. I wish we weren't in the bowl hunt so Caponi could be fired if at least as a symbolic action to show the rest of the staff (minus Cobbs) they need to step it up a bunch. To the decision making, it's all been said. The timeout at 2nd and 16 with 49 seconds to go when most offenses would just let the clock run out to close the half, not taking reasonable field goal attempts early on, poor playcalling (honestly surprised a screen didn't get intercepted), these things fall on Eric Morris. Just garbage level game management. It's like he's playing a video game where there's no real consequences. Time of possession was about 39 to 21 in UTSA's favor. I know Porter had huge runs but UTSA also had huge plays. Why is it that others are capable of sustaining drives and eating clock but our "elite" offense can't do so? Defenses aside, you'd think our supposed top notch offense could be more consistent. I know our defense needs to make stops more consistently but anybody please tell me why our offense isn't capable of having some 6 or 7 minute scoring drives? Morris needs to relax on the pace of game. Just idiotic at this point.
