Miss. St.

[BigWillie]

They are 5-0 and #25 in the nation. Imagine a scenario where we go 4-0 in the games before we play them and they are still undefeated when we play them. That could setup to be a MASSIVE game.

I realize we would still have to beat a good Boise St. team in Boise, but it would make that game even more of a must watch. We would have to be ranked then.

They have Nicholls, Georgia Tech, Southern U, Tulane, and Murray St. Maybe GT might be the toughest in there.

Was thinking about this earlier as well. The beauty about streaks is the longer they last, the more likely they are to end. I'd love for us to face an undefeated and ranked Mississippi State. Could be the marquee win we really need.

I wonder about this sometimes, too. I assume its visitors that are not necessarily UNT fans.

Just wish the game was on a Saturday, or like 11am on Sunday to allow some (myself) to attend.

Now ranked #21. Huge opportunity coming up.

Yes.  Also interesting as former UNT assistant David Anwar is coaching there:

Still have to get through Boise St., but if we do, that will show a step forward.

Boise is currently 3-3. 

They host St. Mary's (SMC) on Friday at 9:30pm CT on FS1. 

Then host us next Tuesday at 8pm CT.

Yep, I have been watching their schedule. A win against St. Mary's would actually be good for both of us. Then when we beat them, it will count  more.

Looking at the schedule, are the Boise St, Fordham, and Miss. St. Games not going to be on streaming?

In researching the Boise game, it looks like it is on the MWN (Mountain West Network).  They do have a YouTube option for the MWN and it looks like free to subscribe.  I also found this streaming link for our game...   https://themw.com/watch/?sport=13

The Fordham game, on their athletic site, shows our game streaming on ESPN+...  https://fordhamsports.com/sports/mens-basketball/schedule

I could not find any streaming yet for our Miss. St. game.

Miss. St. does play at Georgia Tech tonight (Tues 11/28) at 6pm CT on the ACCN/ESPN...

Southern softened them up for us or pissed them off for us. Hopefully the former.
