Remember the 2002 North Texas vs. New Mexico State game at Fouts Field for the Sun Belt Conference championship? The best game I saw at Fouts Field during any era, too!

I cannot remember a game (ever) at Fouts Field when our crowd was so into the game and this was a game that went back and forth till the end; it was a real nail-biter of a college football game.

I have the official 2002 North Texas "Champions" DVD and wish I knew how to take some other highlight plays from that NMSU Aggie game and somehow put them on YouTube.

Below is just 1 YouTube play from that game featuring BOOGER KENNEDY & COMPANY!

The one I cannot find on YouTube was a defensive series in the 2'nd half with the entire Fouts Field crowd chanting.........DEFENSE (stomp-stomp)! DEFENSE (stomp-stomp)! DEFENSE (stomp-stomp)!..............and when Mean Green LB Cody Spencer takes out the NMSU Aggie QB, he, the team and the crowd at Fouts Field go absolutely nuts! I will give this DVD video to any of you who can put that one play of Cody Spencer on YouTube for Mean Green football posterity

MEANWHILE........... HERE IN THE BELOW YOUTUBE VIDEO IS THE GREAT BOOGER KENNEDY DURING THAT NORTH TEXAS/NEW MEXICO STATE GAME OF 2002....and just a hint of how much the crowd at Fouts Field really helped the team in green toward a conference championship that night plus a trip to the NO's Bowl versus the Cincinatti Bearcats and.............a Mean Green bowl win!

I'm with ya' on that, Big Dawg! It was since 1973 till the present...the best game I ever saw as a UNT student or alum on campus. I only wish Darrell Dickey has just kept recruiting on a yearly basis as well as he did one of his first years at UNT when he pulled in almost 10 Texas State Top 100 HS football players from Dave Campbell's list--and that was with Fouts Field as our football stadium, folks.

Just watching even a bit over 30 seconds of that video got me so fired up last night (and even now) it just makes me want to see this Fall's team do as well and create as much as excitement. Never saw a Mean Green crowd so into a game as that one!

GMG!

That was a great game right down to the weather (cold). Winning is such a great elixir.

      Seems like you've gotten over the speeding ticket well.

      Caponi fired

      I think this is a cop-out. He’s been doing this crap since the beginning of his tenure. The first memorable time was against Navy last year on the first drive of the game from the 1. If in the 5th game of year 1 he was already feeling like he needed to score every drive because of the defense, that's an even bigger problem. I think not having a reliable kicker or punter is the main problem. He went for the points a few times early this season and it didn't work out. Same with some punts that just don't do a good job at flipping the field. I've mentioned in other threads that special teams has also been a problem. Evans is 89th in the country in average punt yardage. We have to have a short kicker and a long kicker. Who the eff does that at this level? That's two coordinators that Morris flopped out on. I'm just waiting on us to move on from Svobada at season's end. Was looking over his profile and I didn't know but he also has Tight Ends this year. Where have the Tight Ends been lately??

      What to expect from Odom?

      You have quite unique comments on there…

      Caponi fired

      I understand that his decisions to go for it on 4th down so much or not to kick FGs or play the field position game are bad decisions. Just playing Devil's advocate. Could it be that those decisions stem from a lack of confidence in the defense? It feels like he believes he has to score TDs on every possession to win because the defense will not stop anyone. So, that takes me back to he should have never kept Caponi after year one.
