From the Denton Record-Chronicle:

SMU game has all the makings of a turning point — for good or bad — for UNT
Brett Vito, Staff Writer

In the days after a game, we use this space to dispense a little perspective when it comes to what transpired Saturday for North Texas.

Shouldn't take long this week.

The Mean Green looked great while pounding a Lamar team reeling from the impact of Hurricane Harvey on its Beaumont campus.

Running back Jeffery Wilson needed just 12 carries to rush for 176 yards and three touchdowns. Mason Fine showed why it was a "well, duh" decision that he should return as UNT's starting quarterback while throwing for 224 yards and three more touchdowns. The pair helped UNT roll up a program record 668 yards on its way to a 59-14 win at Apogee Stadium.

Now, about SMU.

Anyone who follows football — and sports in general — knows that some games just mean more than others.

For UNT, games don't come any bigger than those against SMU.

Well, it isn't TCU yet, but I guess we have made some progress.

NTSU is basically a second FCS game. No idea why we need two of those a year.

Let's start consistently coming out of September with at least 3 wins every year, then we can talk about having a tougher non-conference schedule.

Strongly disagree!

ntsu and their 6-7K green fans will come out for blood Saturday. Our D needs to be ready to slow down their offense and good RB.

It goes without saying but we need to score points early and often.

Prediction: SMU 45-41. (score is a bit closer than the actual game was, they score a couple near the end)

38- 17 Mustangs.

Where did they move them ?
