FAU and MTSU Joining CUSA in 2013
One of the most popular posts on this little corner of the internet is the one I did about CUSA. My thoughts on realignment have always centered on the regional-ness of the games. Having spent my time in Denton without…
Bowling Chances 2012
After conference opponent Louisiana-Lafayette 30-23 on Tuesday the 16th, there have been rumblings about bowl-eligibilty. Of course, if you have been reading MGN, you know the deal. North Texas’ record is at 3-4 (2-1). There are five games remaining —…
Sun Belt Week Five 2012
Well I’m not feeling any better about the prospects of winning the conference. That isn’t because the win over FAU was bad. It is because the rest of the Belt looked so good this week. Let’s take a tour shall…
North Texas 20 Florida Atlantic 14 9.29.12

Football Study Hall This is a good, objective look back on last year. It is fairy accurate (he missed some of the details) and provides the statistical version of the story your local season ticket holder would tell you without…
A Win Is A Win: USA vs UNT
Full disclosure: I left at halftime. Not because I was anti-basketball nor because it wasn’t entertaining. No, I had my own sporting adventure to partake in. So, I missed the mini-comeback that was the win vs USA. After typing that…
Drubbing at the Diddle. WKU in a blowout
Not much changed from the first half. That zone killed our offense enough for WKU to turn the lead into 20 points and keep it there for most of the balance of the game. The full-court press we put on…
