You know how when it’s late in the game, during garbage time, and you only sort of half-pay attention to the game because it’s already over, but you don’t wanna miss any big plays?
Imagine four straight quarters of that, and you have some idea how North Texas vs Rice went on Saturday.
The final score was 30-14, but it wasn’t even as close as all that. Rice had a pick-six early— always a danger when you put the ball in the air as often as Mason Fine and this air-raid offense— but despite a couple of strong defensive stands for the Owls, this game was everything you’d have thought it would (and wouldn’t) be.
