****OFFICIAL UNT VS. RICE GAME THREAD****

[GMG24]

WR ran wrong route conversion.  That hurts.  Freshman mistake.  

[GMG24]

Nic Smith is going to be very very good.

[Cerebus]

26 is back

[BTG_Fan1]

And these injuries are why you should play the backups

Saw that, hope it’s not a broken bone.

Looked like his hand.  We are going with the under stuff a lot today so they are going to take some hits.

[Matt from A700]

Now outgaining the Owls 114 yards to 1 while down by 7.

[meaniegreenie]

Boom!

[Marty]

He’s back out there now.

[Harry]

Nic Smith with the TD run and UNT comes roaring back with a nice TD drive 7-7 tie.

[golfingomez]

UNT runs the ball about 8 times on that drive and Nic Smith takes it in from 12 yards (ish)

 

tied up at 7, still in the 1st qtr

[meangreenthirteen]

Nic Smith makes losing Jeff just slightly less painful. He's the real deal

[Cerebus]

Hey long time mean green fans, do you ever miss the old Fouts urinal wall? Well good news! Rice still has them.  

I always forget until I walk in there.

[meaniegreenie]

What about ice machines?

[golfingomez]

UNT D holds them about a foot short of a first down. UNT ball at their own 19 with a little over three minutes in the first qtr

For those having issues with the ESPN feed being choppy -- I am getting reports that it is the feed itself and not your computer or processor that is the problem.  Sorry it sucks.

[meangreenthirteen]

Smiley with a great play that comes back

I believe Rice removed those in a preemptive attempt to foil revenge.

[golfingomez]

Smiley with an insane touchdown catch and run, where he somehow evaded three converging tacklers... but it called back by offsetting penalties...

[golfingomez]

anybody catch that personal foul?

[meangreenthirteen]

I didn't, but something must have happened in a pile. Guys were still blocking on the line when the flags came out

[CaribbeanGreen]

What was the Lawrence penalty that took that 78 yard TD off the board??? Anyone know?  

(nm, y'all asked the same while i was typing)

The Watch ESPN feed always sucks for me.  I guess it's better than no visual at all, but not by much.

[Harry]

Rutherford you need to catch that pass my dude!
