The 20-20

Belated Spring Games Notes

Posted by mad dog , 02 May 2012 - * * * * * · 916 views

Better late than never, right?



A great offensive showing in the spring game today by the Green Team as they topped the White team 41-20. It is worth noting that the White Team was spotted 20 points to start, which was intended to balance their heavy distribution of second team players.

The game started off with a Mike Marshall interception, which ended...

The Ultimate Answer to Recruiting, Conference Realignment, and Everything

Posted by mad dog , 15 February 2012 - * * * * * · 383 views

If you came here looking for the number 42, my hat is off to you. Well played, fellow sci-fi dork. Well played indeed.

However, the ultimate answer in this case is a little different. When it comes to Recruitment, Conference Realignment, Conference Record, Program Progress, Career Ladder Climbing, Political Participation, Marriage, Learning to Salsa,...

Wrinkles and the Future

Posted by mad dog , 01 December 2011 - * * * * * · 409 views

Entering this season, I decided to change the way I viewed North Texas football. Instead of the dogs-watching-ping-pong feeling of obsessing over every small detail, I sat back in my chair and was determined to enjoy the moment. Instead of living and dying off every touchdown, turnover, game clinching drive and soul-crushing collapse, I took in the...

No Bowling for Young Men

Not to pour salt into the wound or anything, but we should have won this game. And not in a sour grapes sort of way. More like the kind of way where an official tells another that the had a clear line of sight when he knows he didn't.

Lance Dunbar scored on the second goal line attempt in the third quarter. He was laying on a defensive player,...

At the beginning of the year, the 20-20 predicted 5 wins if the bounces went our way. And, if the bounces continue to be generous, there's a very real possibility that we reach that plateau tonight.

With a realistic expectation of 3-5 wins for the Mean Green, it is exciting to be in a position to exceed them. Based on how I viewed this team at the...

Shutting the Door

Posted by mad dog , 22 October 2011 - * * * * - · 1,076 views

What a nice change of pace for the Green. Instead of stumbling to the finish line, the home team decided to put an exclamation mark on an already impressive outing with a late scoop and score by LB Julian Herron and a 60 yard burst by Lance Dunbar to put away the ULM Warhawks 38-21 in Denton.

To grossly oversimplify the game and this season, as the...

This is the danger of high expectations. While every fan might hold out hope that even the darkest of circumstances can turn around into the dawn of a conference champtionship, taking that belief and banking on it leads to frustration and outright anger.

Louisiana isn't a bad team. Far from it - they're clearly the cream of the sun belt crop at...

Counter Punched

Posted by mad dog , 08 October 2011 - * * * * * · 154 views

If this contest was a boxing match, North Texas was the quintessential counter puncher. Rather than take unnecessary risks to dominate early, they patiently waited for FAU to make a mistake. Once the Owls showed their chins, the Mean Green would decisively respond with an uppercut that would, like Little Mac in Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out, send them to the...

FAU Pregame

Posted by mad dog , 08 October 2011 - * * * * * · 197 views

Pulling up in the Red Lot this afternoon, I was treated to temperatures in the low 80s, a slight breeze, and clear skies. However, the grim spectre of North Texas weather struck again this season as dark clouds started blowing in about 2 hours before gametime. Looking out at the skyline from the press box right now, the real question seems to be how many...

#Winning

Posted by mad dog , 24 September 2011 - * * * * * · 71 views

Was this the debutante ball for the McCarney Era? No one is going to confuse the Hosiers with Ohio State or Wisconsin, but they are still an AQ team. Oftentimes, these games look like upsets or close games in the first half due to some kind of coaching wrinkle or player hot hand. Then, the other guy’s coaching staff makes a key adjustment, or emotion...
