So proud of this team! Go Mean Green!!

I have only been following the program since my freshman year in 2008. However, this is the most proud I have ever been. I can't wait to be back in Denton next week for homecoming!

Oh my god Orr & Trice

I love this defense

[BIG DAWG]

HUGE!

[Yellow Snow]

Great job guys!

[Eastwood Eagle]

If anyone took videos throughout the game, especially post game, please post them on here or youtube for the people who could not be at the game!!

[FireFightnJoey]

I'm flabergasted. That was a hell of a game.

[Itzcuāuhtli]

Very impressive victory, made me proud that we made the most of the national spotlight. We had so many players step up tonite it would be impossible to call each of them out, but I guess that's the hallmark of a great TEAM.

As coach always tells our team, lets celebrate this for 24 hours, enjoy how good the victory feels, and then start looking forward to the next game.

Go Mean Green!

Unbelievable. Can't understand the difference between the 1st and 2nd halves (or more specifically why we suck in the 1st quarter) but what an amazing performance in the 2nd half by the D.

I was pretty down on the D in the 1st as Rice was passing at will. I honestly cant understand why they insisted on running so much. But what a goal line stand and their confidence just seemed to grow with each play. WOW!!!!

Rice didn't score on the defense in the 1st quarter. There was about a 5 minute stretch in the 2nd quarter where they moved the ball on us...that was it.

There is a tear in my beer but they are happy tears!

Again, they were scoreless in the 2nd half...

This is great! Longtime UNT fans who've suffered all these years, you deserve this

[JKvsHimself]

The cheering and yelling while walking over the I35 bridge was priceless.

I'm loving all this rejuvenated school spirit!!

For those who have followed the team for years, you know that we have a knack for laying an egg on the big games with lots of fans in attendance and then play our best when no one is there. Not this time! This team would not be denied. The whole team stepped up and played one heck of a game on a big stage. Well done Mean Green, well done.

Payback! This goes a long way for me in erasing the nightmare that was the last time UNT played Rice! So very happy for the guys on the team who were there the last time. That is done and over...payback completed! Super win! Do not know how long it will be before I can even think of going to bed!

Will be heading to the UNT basketball game tomorrow, but I am thinking that a lot of tomorrow night's discussions will center around tonight's win and that goal line stand!

Gosh what a great game, just finished watching after taking kids t&ting.

Very little to not like, defense was huge even after 3 4th down penalties.

RB's were solid, DT played nice game with exception of one bone head INT.

Special Teams was huge, Defense!!!!

BTW the INT that started with Orr should be a night highlight

Just a great F***ing Game!!!

GO MEAN GREEN!!!!

It was a helluva game!!! The monkey is finally off NTs back!!

Damn you Tulane!!!

Navy fan here who drove up from Fort Worth to check out the game. Congrats, Rice is a good team with a talented QB and receiver corps, your defense really won that game for you. I was impressed by the size and volume of your student section, very good showing for a weeknight. Enjoyed your band too, certainly one of the best. Best of luck the rest of the season.

I could hear the North Texas chant on the radio loud and clear. I thought maybe I heard something at the end of the first half as if there was a prompted cheer that started quickly and had an abrupt end? Was it just wishful thinking?

Shhhh, dang it you just reminded me of 1988....SFA,....Homecoming.

Not this year...not with this defense.

Please come back for another game & bring some friends. There's nothing wrong with being a Navy fan & cheering for the Mean Green. The Heart of Dallas Bowl would be a good setting for a few beers with a few Navy buds!
