In this article, we will formulate a North Texas vs Wyoming prediction for this College Football Week 4 game on Saturday, September 21st, at Apogee Stadium. Let’s take a look at a North Texas Mean Green vs Wyoming Cowboys pick.
Wyoming Still Looking for First Win
The Wyoming are still looking for their first win of the season and the offense hasn’t been good enough. In the first game of the season against Arizona State they were defeated 48-7. In the last game against BYU, Wyoming scored only 14 points but that wasn’t enough as the defense gave up 34 points. Evan Svobada was under center and he completed 14 of his 32 passes for 140 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. The top running back was Evan Svoboda and he finished with 10 carries for 32 yards and two touchdowns. This is an offense that can’t get behind schedule and needs a balanced attack. They are going to need more running production if they are going to find any sort of success in this game.
North Texas Has To Be Better
After winning the first two games of the season, North Texas really struggled in the last game. North Texas scored 21 points but the defense gave up 66 points and that led to the blowout defeat. The defense allowed Behren Morton to get whatever they wanted and that led to the defeat. They gave up four touchdowns, and they need to be better. Chandler Morris was under center for North Texas and he completed 15 of his 27 passes for 162 yards, two touchdowns, and three interceptions.
The interceptions were a major concern and they are going to need him to take better care of the ball. If they aren’t turning the ball over they have a much better chance of winning their third game of the season.
Why North Texas Will Beat Wyoming

North Texas vs Wyoming Prediction
North Texas might have struggled in the last game but it’s not going to be the same here. This is the same North Texas offense scored 52 points gainst South Alabama and they are going too have no issue running up the score here. Wyoming’s defense gave up 48 points to Arizona State earlier in the season and that’s what defense is going to show up here. North Texas is going to cruise here. Back North Texas against the spread.
