A few days before North Texas took on UTEP on Saturday, head coach Dan McCarney talked about how much he liked the way the end of the Mean Green’s season was set up.

UNT had a little extra time to prepare for its game against the Miners after a Thursday night win over Rice and now will have a whole extra week to take a breather before its game against Texas-San Antonio on Nov. 23.

McCarney has emphasized all season that bye weeks are not off weeks. UNT will try to get a lot done in the next few days while trying to heal from nagging injuries.

The Mean Green’s players echoed their coach’s sentiments Monday, when they began to capitalize on their open week.

“This is going to be good for us,” wide receiver Brelan Chancellor said. “This will give our bodies time to recover.”

UNT had several players nursing injuries after its win over UTEP, including wide receiver Darnell Smith and running back Rex Rollins. Chancellor and linebacker Zach Orr said the recovery time this week allows will be critical for the Mean Green.
