UNT Game Preview Presented by Discover Denton: Washington State

The Mean Green are headed back to Denton and DATCU Stadium this weekend, riding the momentum of an overtime thriller in Kalamazoo that kept them perfect on the season. North Texas now faces its toughest challenge yet: the Washington State Cougars of the Pac-12.

For UNT head coach Eric Morris, this matchup is more than just another game. Morris has ties to Pullman, having spent two separate stints with Washington State earlier in his career. Now, he’ll look to outmaneuver a familiar program as he tries to guide North Texas to a 3-0 start for the first time since 2018, when the Mean Green began the season 4-0.
