At the start of the season who would have put us ahead of T Tech, Rice, smu, TCU, UTEP, UTSA, and Tex St. at this point in the season?

Houston at 32 and Texas at 28 are within reach if they mess up.

I don't think anyone would be surprised about us being ahead of UTEP, UTSA and Tex St. TCU and Tech, yes.

All 3 of which would be favored against us.

I have doubts that TCU would be favored against North Texas. They are awful this year due to injuries to key players.

TCU is atrocious this year. And I think UH would only be favored by 5 or less. Tech probably double digits depending on the location obviously.

We have a chance to move up some spots. Some Teams ahead of us play decent teams on the road. Im sure most will be underdogs.

#35 k state vs OU

#38 cincy @ hou

#33 Boise st @ sdsu

#37 neb @ Penn state

#39 vandy @ tenn

#41 wash @ ore st

#42 Toledo vs NIU

We should move up a few spots and out of the 40s.

I listed all 7 Texas teams to make a point.

That puts UNT at 5th place in Texas.

Only Baylor, A&M, Texas, and Houston are ahead of us in the ranking.

I guarantee you no one thought we would be trailing only those 4 Texas teams.

Houston plays 8-2 Cincinnati this week. Texas plays TT & Baylor. Both are vulnerable.

If we win out, UNT might move up to 3rd or 4th after the bowl games.

Now stop and think about that for a second.

Can someone, ANYONE, please tell me for the love all that is good and holy how ULALA is ranked #40??!!

Please educate me!!!

I think the media loves WKU and - despite a mediocre season - Blakeney.

LaLa has taken care of both WKU and Troy and has no bad losses. It's arguably too high, but there is not a lot to hold against them.

SOS is a big toss up to me. I think it holds more weight when you're trying to elevate a ranking, and less if you're trying to hold them down. That is, a Strong SOS will help a winning team much more than a weak SOS hurts a winning team.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
