ESPN+ Conference USA West college football offseason preview


Recommended Posts

North Texas Mean Green

UNT basically played two different seasons last fall -- it went 2-3, dealt with more than a month's worth of postponements and cancellations because of COVID-19 related issues, then went 2-3 again.

2021 Projections
Projected SP+ rank: 106th

Projected record: 5-7 (4-4)

  • Likely wins (2): Northwestern State (92% SP+ win probability), UTEP (83%)

  • Relative tossups (6): at Louisiana Tech (55%), at FIU (52%), at Rice (42%), UTSA (42%), at Southern Miss (41%), Marshall (39%)

  • Likely losses (4): UAB (34%), at SMU (19%), Liberty (17%), at Missouri (15%)

Seth Littrell took defensive coordinator Phil Bennett out of mothballs -- he hadn't coached since 2017 -- in an attempt to save a crumbling defense. With six relative tossups on the schedule, any traction Bennett builds could flip a few games.
