Author: Chris Jackson
The Mean Green arrived at the New Orleans Saints Practice Facility at 9:50 a.m. and took the field at 10:10 a.m.

Weather at practice was sunny, light wind, mid-50s.

North Texas Sophomore safety Jonas Buckles
”Everybody came down here focused this year. It is more like a business trip for us. We came down here to win. We want to show everybody what kind of team we are. Last year, everybody thought we could win the game, but this year we know we can win. It is just a matter of taking care of business.”

North Texas junior linebacker Taylor Casey
“Everybody’s keeping their mind on the game. We got a lot more preparation done before we came down here and now that we are here, we are all keeping focused on the game. The main thing is that we are not going to get distracted like we did last year. We are thinking that our workouts in Denton (Texas) are just now in New Orleans. We are not going to do anything different, we are preparing for this game like it is a regular game. Our practices have been more intense than the ones last year.”

North Texas Senior running back Kevin Galbreath
“This year, we came here for one reason…to win. Last year we went back home with a bad feeling , but this year we want to go back home feeling good about winning. Last year, our practices were pretty bad, but this year we are working harder.”
