North Texas appeared dead in the water when it came to its bowl hopes just a few weeks ago.
The Mean Green had lost six straight games after falling to Liberty back on Oct. 23. UNT was 1-6 at that point and faced a tough set of circumstances.
The Mean Green needed to win five straight games to become bowl eligible at 6-6. UNT hadn't won five in a row since 2017.
The odds didn't look good.

In the span of two days, the head coaches of two of the biggest college football programs in America have jumped ship, wooed by even greater challenges — and the almighty dollar.
Driving the news: Lincoln Riley is ditching Oklahoma for USC in a deal reportedly worth $110 million. LSU poached Brian Kelly from Notre Dame with a reported 10-year, $100 million contract.
- USC is reportedly buying Riley a $6 million home in Los Angeles and giving him 24/7 access to a private jet.
- Kelly broke up with Notre Dame via text Monday night — a week after saying he'd never leave South Bend.
Why it matters: The college football coaching carousel has always been a theater of the absurd, from flight trackers to mysterious boosters. But there has never been a 24 hours like this one.

They also discuss potential coaching changes that could be on the horizon.

The National Collegiate Athletic Association recently predicted when UTSA football will likely have its first loss of the season. UTSA football protected its perfect record with a wild 34-31 victory over UAB on Saturday, November 20 at the Alamodome. The win came within the last three seconds of the game when Oscar Cardenas caught a tipped touchdown from QB Frank Harris.
The win secures the Roadrunnersthe top spot in Conference USA's West division, earning UTSA a berth in the conference championship game for the first time in program history. The football program, which has never won more than eight games in a season, moved to 11-0 and 7-0 in Conference USA, standing as one of three remaining undefeated teams in the FBS.

Get ready for an off-field showdown the likes of which college football hasn't seen in generations.
Dan Mullen’s firing at Florida on Sunday means there are three consensus Top 10 college football head coaching jobs open at the same time: Florida, LSU and USC. And they are open amid a candidate pool that could be rapidly shrinking due to contract extensions and timing of the upcoming hiring process.
And that leaves a lingering tension that’s going to hang over the upcoming weeks, ratcheting up pressure on the athletic directors involved and potentially increasing leverage for the coaches who are attainable. Everyone’s head is on a swivel to figure out how – and when – these coaching dominoes can fall.
After those Big Three, there’s still very good jobs like Virginia Tech, TCU and Washington, who have competed at the highest levels of the sport this generation. Then there’s the potential opening at Miami, who has a storied history but little of it recent. (The overwhelming expectation at TCU remains that SMU’s Sonny Dykes fills that job, according to sources.)
“LSU, Florida and USC are going to want some of the same people,” said an industry source. “Someone is going to get left out of the musical chair game. Every athletic director’s desire is to look like they got their first choice, even when they didn't get their first choice.”
Overall, 14 jobs have opened in this cycle. Three have already been filled – Texas Tech (Joey McGuire), UConn (Jim Mora) and Georgia Southern (Clay Helton).
So who fills the rest of them? Timing will play a bigger role than preferences and available budgets as the timeline of the hiring cycle continues to mutate.

Billy Napier owned the week.
Depending on what (and who) you believe, Louisiana's head coach is the axis on which much of the coaching carousel is currently spinning. While there are certainly major jobs like USC and Washington where Napier doesn't (seem to) factor, there's a growing network of good CFB gigs where the G5 darling is at the center of the speculation:
TCU: The Horned Frogs pursued Napier in between separate conversations with SMU's Sonny Dykes. At one point, TCU felt convinced that its offer to Napier would be accepted but will likely end up on the pile of schools that previously felt like they had a shot. Don't feel too bad if you're a Horned Frog — about half the SEC is on that list with you. Expect Sonny Dykes to be the name here.
LSU: When Ed Orgeron was fired in October, the prevailing thought was that A.D. Scott Woodward would poach his longtime friend, Texas A&M's Jimbo Fisher, whom he hired to that position when he was in College Station. Fisher is staying put, so LSU has moved on to names like Michigan State's Mel Tucker and Oklahoma's Lincoln Riley. Napier is the wild card here because old guard LSU boosters don't want to hire the coach from lowly Louisiana, but Napier's stock is rising as Woodward keeps searching.
Virginia Tech: Is Napier the reason that Tech pulled the trigger on Justin Fuente this week instead of waiting for his buyout to drop in December? If Napier ends up in Blacksburg, yes! If not, of course not! That's the game: You never admit to a swing-and-a-miss publicly. The reality is that Tech has a strong candidate pool, but it would score a huge coup if it could get Napier to the ACC.

As of this post, TCU has not announced the next head coach of the football program. Reading the tea leaves, though, it seems as if the search has narrowed to one.
Of course, the administration will still say that at least four candidates are still being considered: SMU’s Sonny Dykes, Louisiana’s Billy Napier, Clemson OC Tony Elliott, and Iowa State’s Matt Campbell.
However, as Drew Davison of the Fort Worth Star Telegram wrote on Thursday, Sonny Dykes has been and seemingly continues to be the frontrunner.
Dykes has been offered a contract extension by SMU but he has not signed it, and when asked about it earlier this week, Dykes responded, “We’re just getting some details kind of, you know, finalized. See where it goes.”
