Many of the stats were even between the two teams &#8212; 33 total rebounds each, 3 more turnovers committed by UAB, 3 more fouls by North Texas. I think where it came down to the nitty-gritty was UAB shot from behind the arc better &#8212; 5 of 22 for 22.7% versus 1 of 15 for 6.7% by the Mean Green in addition to UAB going on a come-from-behind 12-to-2 run to finish the game in the final minutes of the game.<\/p>\n<p>Up next for the Mean Green is the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders, who have the best overall record in Conference USA with a 12-3 and 2 wins in conference play. Tip off is set for 2:00 PM in Denton, TX at the Super Pit on Saturday, January 7th. North Texas is staring down the chance at opening conference play at 0-4 if it doesn&#8217;t somehow pull out a win.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ntsportsstats.com\/stats\/Bball\/Game\/?g=229\" target=\"_blank\">Game Stats<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.meangreensports.com\/sports\/m-baskbl\/recaps\/010517aaa.html\" target=\"_blank\">Mean Green Sports Recap<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/meangreenblog.dentonrc.com\/2017\/01\/late-night-hoops-rewind-uab-54-unt-52.html\/\" target=\"_blank\">Denton Record Chronicle Recap<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>CUSA Action<\/h2>\n<p>Old Dominion 86<br \/>\n<strong>Marshall 90<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>UTEP 44<br \/>\n<strong>Louisiana Tech 64<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Charllote 80<br \/>\n<strong>Western Kentucky 82<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Middle Tennessee 80<\/strong><br \/>\nRice 77<\/p>\n<p>UT-San Antonio 59<br \/>\n<strong>Southern Miss 77<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>CUSA Standings<\/h2>\n<pre>TEAM             CONF OVERALL\r\nMarshall         3-0  10-6\r\nWestern Kentucky 3-0   9-7\r\nMiddle Tennessee 2-0  12-3\r\nLouisiana Tech   2-0  10-5\r\nOld Dominion     2-1   9-6\r\nUAB              1-1   8-7\r\nUT San Antonio   1-1   6-9\r\nSouthern Miss    1-1   4-10\r\nRice             1-2  11-5\r\nCharlotte        1-2   7-7\r\nFlorida Atlantic 0-2   4-9\r\nFlorida Intl     0-2   4-11\r\nUTEP             0-2   2-12\r\n<span style=\"color: #339966;\">North Texas      0-3   6-9<\/span><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Views: 191Editor&#8217;s note: I have taken the past week of for New Year&#8217;s and am catching up on my stories and stats.
