****Texas vs. North Texas Official Game Thread***

Haines!

 

[Dieselprime]

woot!!

 

[HornEsch]

Offense needs work. Defense is looking solid.

 

[Dieselprime]

It looks like our offense still needs some work.

 

[HornEsch]

Defense is generally ahead of offense this time of year, but still.

Not to mention that kick has to be made.

 

[Aaron Carrara]

Nick Rose misses a 38 yarder.  Fera's departure made the kicking game interesting.....

 

[Matt Cotcher]

I've said it for a month now. It's going to be a priority for this year's team to capitalize on opportunities. A missed field goal is not capitalizing - especially after a turnover.

 

[Juan]

Ash has already been hit hard on multiple plays.

Not a good trend

 

[Dieselprime]

Looks like the defense is going to have to score for us

 

[Juan]

Our D is moving players in and out

Hard to keep track

It's working

UNT has 0 yards on 9 plays in 3 possessions.

 

[Aaron Carrara]

North Texas has zero rushing yards and zero passing yards  and the Texas defense has forced the Mean Green to three 3 & outs.

 

[Juan]

Pregame shot

They say the only empty seats are the tip top

 

[Juan]

The practice rumors about "John Harris catching everything throw to him" were just that, rumors.

Hope its just first game yips and he gets over it quickly

Otherwise he is going to be sitting shortly

edit - someone told him what i just wrote

and he made decent catch

 

[JimsTexas]

The D is always ahead of the O this early in the season. My friends y'all have a great weekend.

 

[Dieselprime]

YEs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[HornEsch]

Yep, I think the offense just needs some reps.

 

[Juan]

The D is always ahead of the O this early in the season

If that is true, the Fresno St. is in deep trouble bc their defense is awful

USC destroying them in 1Q

 

[HornEsch]

I am truly loving the defense.

 

[Matt Cotcher]

Scoring drive was 9 plays, 63 yards & 3:30.

 

[Aaron Carrara]

First score of the Charlie Strong era at Texas comes on a 2-yard rush by Malcolm Brown.

Texas - 7, North Texas - 0 

4:06 left in the first quarter in Austin
