looked like some home cooking on that spot.

He was back there with Darden on one of them. USM wasting TOs.

Does 1997 really qualify as a throw-back?

There's at least one camera that they need to clean the lens or something.

Hey, hey, hey....we can play too.

Let's go offense....good field position.

I blame Vito.

Woo hoo! We got out of a 3rd and long. Dangerous down for us.

Alright D...let's make a stop here.

According to the graphic, it's a perpetual 1st & 10 for USM.

7PM EDT, 6PM CDT

As always, it depends on the month and time of kick-off :-)

So here's a quandary...on game days do you want a nice breeze to completely unfurl the flag in all it's majestic glory (but possibly affect the passing game) or do you want a calm day possibly benefiting the passing game (but leaving the flag limp and hanging down against the pole)?

Meh...it was a home game. Just wait until they carry one of our away games ;-). Agree with the earlier comments that the production was top-notch. Really good camera work and announcers.

I get it. When we win, it's just dumb luck or the football gods chose to smile on UNT for once. When we lose, the other team has better athletes, better coaches or is just a "year ahead" of us. Last time I checked turnovers are part of the game as are injuries, backup players, bad officiating, weather and funky bounces of the ball. Our backup QB was better than their backup QB that game. In other words, we had more depth at a critical position than USM did. That usually makes one team better than the other not luckier. Our backup RB was just as productive as their starting RB. Morris also threw an INT and we lost 2 of our three fumbles. USM lost 1 fumble, so it's not like we dominated the turnover battle. We scored more points, we won.

Why do we always feel compelled to explain away or come up with some excuse for our wins? I just don't get it. We have got to be the most neurotic fan base in college football. Isn't it possible that we were simply the better team on the field that day or doesn't that ever enter the equation?

Didn't we beat them last year? That's pretty recent history and we weren't very good last year.

If you can't pick up a 3rd and 2 from your own 45, then you probably shouldn't be going for it on 4th and 1 from your own 46.

I thought we were trying to win conference championships, not just to become bowl eligible.

Should have probably gone for two instead of going for the tie and potentially forcing OT. UAB had all the momentum at that time. Who knows how it would have ended if UAB went for the win at that point, but I think that may have been where the game was "given away."

Looking good!

speechless

jeez...at this point getting to OT would be a miracle.

They are more of a first half crowd.

Oh my.
