Again, big IF…but if we manage to pull one out in Lubbock…we come back to DATCU to a crowd of 29k+ on the 21st against Wyoming

(Wyoming, by the way, just lost to Idaho)

We dont beat Tech if we played like we did Saturday.  Looks like SFA might have figured out our offense,  Three interceptions not good, 121 in penalty yards not good. The Defense played better tonight but I not sure how well it will hold up against Tech.  I hope we pull it out but we have to play a lot better.   Never seen so many illegal formation calls in a game and my favorite everyone is guilty for a false start except the guy hiking the ball....mmmmm.  As SL always said we have a lot of things to clean up.

12 point underdogs in an early line.  11:00 kickoff in Lubbock.  If going to the game, stop by Buddy Holley’s grave site.  I’ll give you directions here.  Nobody in Lubbock knows where it is.

If we hadn’t played so poorly yesterday, I’d be more hopeful. Penalties, turnovers, and some unfortunate injuries. I’m not as confident as I was a few days ago.  
 

Tech’s star RB was out yesterday. If he’s out again, we’ll have a better shot. We have to play better, though.

This is finally our second chance after blowing that Arky win momentum and 4-0 start, and near sellout against LA Tech.

If we beat a struggling Tech team (and many of their fans on Twitter already suspect we could), we've got two more winnable home games in Wyoming and Tulsa before hitting the road against an FAU team that has looked really bad so far, too.

I think Wyoming will still be a good attended game anyway with it being Family Weekend. They're already pushing a sellout, and last year's Family Weekend crowd against Abilene Christian was still somehow better than the opener against a beatable P5 team despite the 58-21 dumpster fire.

I’m excited about the opportunity at Tech. Games like that are the springboard programs need to take the next step… Here we are. We will learn a ton about this football team at Tech. Let’s get this!

Sadly, the history of our moments when we were at that "springboard to taking off" moment have been captured in video form:

We better get some bigger linemen.  I’ve never seen a UNT line abused more than last night.  Both sides of the ball.  Glad for the win.

And yet we held them to just over 2 yards a carry

I hope McGuire is safe as I don't want Morris being recruited away like McCasland.

I was thinking about that….

Morris has to really have a good year but if he does I would think that would be a no brainer for both parties. It would be more like McCasland getting Baylor I would think…. 
 

imagine this offense back at TT. I’m sure they miss those days.

I am going to go out on a limb... SFA gave us more trouble than what TX tech will do. ACU gave Tech trouble and the game went into OT. It's so UNT of our team to just blow an opportunity on a very winnable recognized name with a W over TT. But TT is really struggling this year.

Someone's gotta pull something out of their ass. Soccer and volleyball are already a combined 0-7 against power conference schools this year.

      Head Coach Bill Belichick North Carolina

      You may not know this, but Mattress Mac gave us a million dollars for the football program back in 2006. He and Darrell Dickey were apparently close and Coach got him to donate. Well, we fired Dickey, as the program really began to fall back. That pissed off Mattress Mac, so he agreed to only let the money go if we named the practice fields after Darrell Dickey, a coach who went 42-64. After this, he has never shown even a hint of interest in our athletic program ever again. I suspect that he will never give another cent to our program.

      Is the Portal out of control?

      Lifer, I hear you....but of course Chandler Morris is worth the money. The reason I know that he is worth the money is someone is willing to pay it. I don't think the portal is out of control. I think the portal is behaving in a way that was inevitable. We can't say "these damn 20 year olds are old enough to make their own decisions...quit holding their hands" and then get upset when they do. Are they good decisions? Who knows. Good for some, not good for others. They'll find out. What I don't want to see is we then turn around and treat them like victims when it doesn't go well or they don't protect themselves and get taken advantage of. Weigh the risks and rewards, make the decision, live with the consequences or do something different...you know like normal every day adults do every day. When they graduate/leave school they will have opportunities to go on the open market, leave their job for more pay, get fired, laid off, start their own business, fail, start again, make a mistake leaving one situation to go to another, etc. The transfer portal is no different.

      Very good info you shared. I found it very interesting. I just wish some of the UNT forefathers had been more forward looking. A good example would be why did no one ever call on Mattress Mack? The guys is worth Billions and he played football at UNT!

      Sadly I think I'll have to watch this one from home. Five games in five night at The Pit and I plan to go to the women's game against SMU, and men against App State and HCU. Hope we see a lot of Cotton, Mason, and Vice.

      High Point (12/6/24)

      IIRC Atin was the highest scoring transfer, but I think he only averaged around 14 a game last season.
