Really crucial draw for UNT soccer over the perennially strong Tigers.

They finish the year against No. 8 UTSA and No. 9 Tulsa, who they could jump in conference standings with wins and thus earn the eighth seed in the conference tournament despite a hectic season.

[UNT Soccer @MeanGreenSoccer]

What a match. Proud of this team's fight to earn a comeback draw against the American's top team.

It appears that North Texas will be debuting brand new black helmets as apart of their blackout game this Thursday vs FAU 👀

These new helmets have the UNT Texas logo with a stripe across the middle as opposed to last year’s black wing helmets.

[Ian Pfaffenberger @ianpfaffmedia]

@thejuliancs Hawkins: 17 receptions, 225 receiving yards, 1 TD
White: 27 receptions, 250 receiving yards, 2 TD

Mestemaker: 72 rushing yards, 4 TD
Jackson: 55 rushing yards, 2 TD

Worth noting that Mestemaker was sacked 4 more times than Jackson through 7 games which hurt his rushing total.

UNT offensive "Big 3" 2025 vs 2026 comparison through 7 games:

[Ian Pfaffenberger @ianpfaffmedia]

The Mean Green will return home on a short week to play FAU, who won a 51-49 shootout over Rice earlier today. North Texas athletics has made a big push to sell out the match and might even cancel classes if enough student tickets are sold.

[Ian Pfaffenberger @ianpfaffmedia]

North Texas moves to 5-2 and remains undefeated in American Conference play with a 49-39 win over Navy.

Another dominant offensive display today as QB Tayven Jackson, RB Jahiem White and WR Justin Stevenson eclipsed 300/100/200 yards, respectively.

[Jaelon Darden Muse @DardenMuse]

Tayven Jackson this year has more TD’s than he had from 2022-2025 combined. His 72.2% completion percentage is 8.7% higher than his best completion % as a starter. He is averaging 120 more yards per game than he did at UCF, where he averaged a previous career best of 195.5.
