My thoughts:
If FAU plays within themselves and the players don't get caught up in the hype of beating a BIG TEN team, the Owls should be able to roll against the Mean Green. If FAU spends the week patting themselves on the back for the win against Minnesota it will be a long day in Denton and North Texas will spoil the Owls shot at a dream season.
My advice:
Minnesota happened last week. Forget about it. Troy is a long way away. Don't look ahead. Take one game at a time. This weeks job is to beat North Texas and improve to 3-1. Get it done.
GO OWLS!!!

1) You beat a BCS team - You're not an actual BCS team yet
Obviously, this means don't get full of yourselves. Don't overlook a conference foe. Losing to North Texas would largely negate the awesome game a week before.
2) Continue air execution
B.J. Manley looked good. D-I Edgecomb looked UNBELIEVABLE. But, our season is going to be won (and lost) on the arm of Mr. Conference Player of the Week, Rusty Smith. He needs to continue his assault on defenses, via Harmon and Jean.
3) Continue to own what you own
We are 3-0 versus North Texas all-time, including years when we were D-IAA. We own this team. Go on the field with no mercy and take care of business… In other words, play like you ARE the better team.
Mr. Step Up
Who needs to be called out publically and step up?
Josh Pinnick
Yes, you have been double-teamed and creating openings for linebacker blitzes, but you need to find a way to get to the quarterback and sit his ass on the ground. You are a perenial All-Conference pick and some projected you to go in the draft this season. You need to STEP UP this week at North Texas and lead our defense to a conference win!
Prediction:
Rusty Smith hits Lestar Jean at least twice. Defense swarms the Mean Green's new offense, led by new coaches and a new system. 2-0 in the Sun Belt.
FAU - 30, North Texas - 14

It's not a long ride from the Dallas area.
