I don't expect their defense to be that great, and we should be able to score on them. The question is can we hold them and their QB and receivers from putting 350-400 yards on us. Plus, our kicking game needs the expected improvement.

Also, shouldn't expect much of a home field advantage - they'll bring about 10k, maybe more.\

Sounds about right.

48-31 Ponies. UNT should be able to hang around for awhile with Fine at QB, but we’ve got more offensive firepower and our defense is better than theirs (which is atrocious).

Powerful Ponies 48
Woeful Weenies 21

Just hope we don't fall too far in the rankings when we beat them.

I was surprised with the amount of points scored in last week's game, which I thought might be a low 30's vs high 20's finish. UNT will definitely be a shootout game so I will go with something like SMU 52 UNT 48

I love Buechele as much as the next guy, but you're crazy to have him ahead of Fine.
Yes, this is Pony Nate from Pony Nate-tion, and yes you can debate me as much as you'd like...

1st half = 35-28 - defense struggles but offense keeps churning
Final = 56-35 - defense figures it out and offense keeps moving
