Dec 15 CFB [201] TOTAL o67½-130 (B+1) (NORTH TEXAS vrs UTAH STATE)
Utah State’s Matt Wells was named Texas Tech’s new head coach, he inherited a 11-2 team, took them to 3-9 and now has built them and caught the eye Tech for his efforts. The line movement on that game has been crazy, but i don't think the North Texas Mean Green are as good as their 9-3 record. The key to beating this USU team is on the ground. In their two losses their opponents outrushed them 364 yards to 87. Wyoming ran for 231 yards against them and held USU’s offense under 200 total yards. But USU’s defense got a couple of turnovers and a 99 yard kick off return ended up being the difference. North Texas Mean Green rushing offense is ranked, 85th, and their pass defense is ranked 92nd. The Mean Green (9-3) have leaned on Torrey to power their running game after starting running back Loren Easly was lost for the season with a knee injury. Torrey has responded by rushing for at least 130 yards in four straight games. The Mean Green offense is led by junior quarterback Mason Fine. The 2017 and 2018 Conference USA Offensive Player of the Year is the school's all-time leader in career passing yards, career passing efficiency and enters the bowl game ranked No. 8 nationally in passing yards per game.
