North Texas Vs Rice Game Predictions

[Green P1]

If DT can get us through this game without his customary 1 or 2 interceptions I think we'll win and I'll leave him alone from here on out.

Gut: Rice-27

UNT-24

Heart: Rice-23

UNT-32

NT - 24

Rice - 17

I think a Mean Green victory will come down to forcing at least 2 turnovers and keeping Rice's rushing game to under 150 yards.

[eulessismore]

I'll say 38-21, and we win. This time, we don't miss any PAT attempts, and also get a field goal. Defense gives up 14 and offense 7; we score 7 on special teams play, they score none.

[Christopher Walker]

What with the meteorological predictions of active 15-30 MPH gusts, I'd say all of ya'll game predictions relying upon kicking will get a little screwed with.

[Green Crazy]

NT - 30

Rice - 23

Only because we're in apogee.

I don't think Rice will score as much on the Defense as some think.

Mean Green.... 27

Food thrown at weddings.... 17

[UNT90]

I don't think Rice will score as much on the Defense as some think.

Yep.

30-10

[NT03]

Having a tough time with this one, but I think a packed Apogee will be difference :

N Texas 21

A Roni 17

[Sig381]

Mean Green - 27

Rice - 16

Ground and Pound

[UNTLifer]

I don't think Rice will score as much on the Defense as some think.

Same thought here and with the elimination of the offensive turnover returned deep in our end of the field or returned for six, I say:

NT: 31

Rice: 13

[NTSUEagle]

They 'gayness' that is known as the Rice University 'Mob' - 16

Prime Time Green - 17

I will be holding down the Fort tonight at JD's Bait Shop in Greenwood Village, CO, dressed as a North Texas Alumnus...

GO MEAN GREEN!!!

Going to come down to a late 4th quarter defensive stand, and unlike the Tulane result, this one is at Apogee. We'll be loud and the defense will hold 'em.

[Chief Rising Eagle]

We will win the game. And you can put that in 3 inch headlines.

[TIgreen01]

Now that the wind is a factor, I have no freaking clue.

Without wind: I would have predicted a high scoring game. I just don't think we'd be able to stop Taylor, which really opens things up for Rice. I also don't think that they'd be able to stop us.

With massive wind gusts: It'll be tough for them to toss up jump balls to Taylor, and our running game hasn't exactly been good when the pass hasn't been there to open it up. Should be a defensive slug-fest.

No matter what, Jimmerson needs to hold on to the d@mn ball tonight. With Pegram out, he is going to be a key for us. I've liked what I've seen from Rollins, though. If JimJim can't protect the ball, get someone in there that can. That or Byrd needs to have a career night. He just might against this Rice front 7.

EDIT: Just checked weather and wind should start dying down around game time. Expect a shootout.

I wasn't counting on THAT kind of stand...
