After Memphis, North Texas visits Tulane and then hosts Army. Those two teams are a combined 7-0 in the AAC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-north-texas-memphis-preview\">North Texas-Memphis Preview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-for-north-texas\">For North Texas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mean Green have won three in a row since losing 66-21 at Texas Tech. North Texas needed an impressive comeback during last week\u2019s 41-37 win at FAU. The Mean Green went down 37-27 when FAU kicked a field goal with 4:21 left. DT Sheffield would then catch two touchdown passes from Chandler Morris, the second with 58 seconds remaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Morris completed 27 of 45 passes for 336 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception. Sheffield caught 11 passes for 126 yards and two touchdowns.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mean Green have been a second-half team, outscoring opponents 135-63 after intermission this season.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Morris has completed 64.3% of his passes for 1,979 yards, 20 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. Four UNT players have rushed for between 100 and 220 yards. Sheffield has 34 receptions for 443 yards and seven touchdowns. Safety Jayden Hill, who spent the previous four seasons at Division II Ohio Dominican, leads the team with 43 tackles.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mean Green are third in the AAC in scoring (40.8 points per game) but 11th in scoring defense, allowing 33 PPG.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-for-memphis\">For Memphis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tigers have won two in a row since the aforementioned loss to Navy. Memphis is coming off last week\u2019s 21-3 win over South Florida in Orlando. Memphis held USF to just 24 rushing yards on 19 attempts and forced three turnovers. USF was 1 for 13 on third downs. Henigan completed 28 of 40 passes for 208 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception. The Tigers had possession for 41 minutes, 38 seconds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Henigan is now tied with Brady White for the most wins at Memphis by a starting quarterback with 28.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tigers have now scored at least 20 points in 33 consecutive games, which is the longest active streak in the nation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Henigan has been efficient, but he hasn\u2019t enjoyed the breakout season that many expected. He has completed 65.1% of his passes for 1,547 yards, nine touchdowns, and three interceptions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>South Carolina transfer Mario Anderson Jr. has rushed for 456 yards and eight touchdowns. Seven different players have caught at least one touchdown pass in the Tigers\u2019 balanced passing attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roc Taylor has 26 receptions for 375 yards and a touchdown.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Linebacker Chandler Morris leads the Tigers in both tackles (42) and sacks (four).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Memphis is second in the AAC in scoring defense, allowing 15.8 points per game, and is fifth in scoring offense (31.2 points per game).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-6a896cfa alignwide\">\n\n<figure class=\"gb-block-image gb-block-image-21cd4368\"><a href=\"https:\/\/herosports.com\/betmgm-promotions\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"147\" class=\"gb-image gb-image-21cd4368\" src=\"https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2.jpg?strip=all&lossy=1&ssl=1\" alt=\"promo-page-banner\" title=\"PROMO-BANNER-2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2-300x41.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2-768x105.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2-1024x139.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2-750x102.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;ssl=1 750w, https:\/\/e8tpmrtk53q.exactdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/PROMO-BANNER-2.jpg?strip=all&amp;lossy=1&amp;w=384&amp;ssl=1 384w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-north-texas-memphis-prediction\">North Texas-Memphis Prediction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I like Memphis giving the points. North Texas has a prolific offense, but the Mean Green can also give up points in bundles. A key stat is penalties. North Texas is the second-worst team in the AAC, averaging 77 penalty yards per game. Memphis is the fourth-best team, averaging 44 per contest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another key stat is that North Texas has thrown 20 touchdown passes, but Memphis has allowed just two scoring passes. North Texas hasn\u2019t faced a defense like this, and while the Mean Green should still be able to score, I don\u2019t think it will be at the same pace as the first six games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an American Athletic Conference race that hasn\u2019t exactly gone as many predicted, North Texas has been among the surprise teams this season.
