Through 3 Quarters

The North Texas Mean Green were the heavy favorites here for a reason. Three quarters in and their offense has really been able to impose its will, dominating the Northwestern State Demons 41-14 three quarters in. North Texas has been led by RB DeAndre Torrey, who so far has rushed for three TDs and 227 yards on 23 carries.

The North Texas defense has been merciless to QB Kaleb Fletcher and currently has four sacks accrued. That goes a long way towards explaining why the Mean Green basically have this contest in the bag.
