I would take Hugh Freeze. I want to win games! Just keep him on a short leash until he proves he doesn’t need to be watched as closely.

We open as 21.5 point favorites.

Does anyone know what announced attendance was?

I’m gonna say announced is 26,862. Butts in seats will be around 22k

Here's a link to the original thread and the players that were adopted: We’re now 5 games into the season, so let’s hear how everyone’s adopted player is doing so far. My man Bryce English is having a good bounce back year so far after missing a couple of seasons. He has 4 solo tackles with 8 assisted for a total of 12 tackles. He has a TFL for 5 yards and a half sack for 5 yards. Even has a QB Hurry. Not bad for a backup NT after a couple of seasons out of the game.

This is my first time checking the forum since the game. I still have a terrible taste in my mouth. That’s the saddest I’ve ever felt after a UNT game. Portland State was a disaster but we were garbage and expected to lose. I still love this team and will still be at all of the home games, it’s just hard to shake this ****** feeling after losing our chance at the division (yeah UAB COULD beat LA Tech but UAB also got blown out by 2nd year FBS team Coastal Carolina). I don’t mean to be a bummer, but this is honestly the worst I’ve ever felt after a UNT game.

Will there be a barbershop podcast this week? I know there wasn’t one last week but I’m curious if there will be one this week. @Harry

We are a covering machine. We’ve covered the spread in all 4 games this season.

Here is Bill Connelly's S&P+ Ratings for C-USA teams after 4 weeks 42) UNT 69) FAU (NICE!) 71) Southern Miss 72) Marshall 78) LA Tech 81) UAB 100) FIU 104) WKU 106) ODU 115) MTSU 124) Charlotte 125) UTSA 127) Rice 130) UTEP Average West Ranking: 93.4 Average East Ranking: 98.6 It appears that the top of the west is better than the top of the east, but the bottom of the east isn't as bad as the bottom of the west. G5 Top 10 17) UCF - AAC 20) App State - Sunbelt 21) Memphis - AAC 22) Boise State - MWC 38) Fresno State - MWC 39) Houston - AAC 42) North Texas - C-USA 43) Utah State - MWC 47) USF - AAC 53) Buffalo - MAC 4 AAC Teams 3 MWC Teams 1 C-USA Team 1 MAC Team 1 Sunbelt Team

80% chance of thunderstorms. I’m very concerned about how the rain will hurt our passing game. We had a lot of drops against Incarnate Word when it was sprinkling.

I met Jamie King’s dad at one of the scrimmages before the season started. Really cool guy and he talked about how hard Jamie has worked and the physical transformation he underwent this offseason.

UNT wins this one 31-21.

S&P+ is the deepest diving metric in CFB and was formulated by Bill Connelly at SBNation who is very well respected among all college football observers. Here is the likelihood of each win total in the regular season for us: 2-10: 0.0% 3-9: 0.0% 4-8: 0.0% 5-7: 0.0% 6-6: 0.5% 7-5: 3.3% 8-4: 11.8% 9-3: 25.4% 10-2: 32.0% 11-1: 21.4% 12-0: 5.7% If you had told me 3 years ago we were more likely to go undefeated than 7-5 I would have laughed and laughed and laughed.

We have several players and several team stats that are currently in the top 25 in FBS. INDIVIDUAL TOP 25 STATS: Passing Yards Per Game: Mason Fine #1 Passing Yards: Mason Fine #3 Field Goals: Cole Hedlund #1 Touchdowns: Deandre Torrey #10 PATs: Cole Hedlund #14 Receiving Yards: Rico Bussey Jr. #15 Sacks: EJ Ejiya #17 Punt Return Yards: Jaelon Darden #17 Interceptions: Kemon Hall #20 TEAM TOP 25 STATS: Passing Yards: #3 First Downs: #3 Defensive Efficiency: #6 3rd Down Conversions: #9 Interceptions: #15 Total Offense: #17 Rushing Defense: #17 Kickoff Returns: #23 Total Defense: #23

I’m a little upset that we didn’t kick that last FG. That would have given us the 61 points I predicted.

The student section filled up A LOT more by the end of the first. I heard several people say that they thought there were more students at the game than alumni, which is good for the future of our program

UNT Athletics just sent out an email saying over 10,000 students were at the SMU game.

Good write up @Brett Vito

Give me UNT winning 61-10. 45 points in the first half. Subs come in really early as we try to rest players up for the Arkansas game. Please Graham Harrell, let Mason throw for at least 400 yards this game. I want to see Mason beat some records (INCLUDING GRAHAM'S)!

UNT Updated Win %s Per ESPNFPI Vs Incarnate Word 99.3% @ Arkansas 23.9% @ Liberty 62.0% Vs LA Tech 63.1% @ UTEP 93.3% Vs Southern Miss 74.2% @ UAB 52.5% Vs Rice 94.8% @ ODU 85.0% Vs FAU 70.8% @ UTSA 82.1% Would result in 11-1. But first, #BeatIncarnateWord

Yeah I couldn’t readily find with I-AA stats, but we were also FCS so those years should have been a lot easier. It was great meeting you too man. See you Saturday.
