Seth Littrell set the goal of winning a bowl heading into his first season with the Mean Green in 2016. UNT came up just short in a 38-31 overtime loss to Army in the Heart of Dallas Bowl and didn't get there last year either. Troy ran away from UNT in a 50-30 New Orleans Bowl win. Littrell and the Mean Green don't want to head into a fourth year without meeting the first goal they set, especially in a season in which they appear, on paper at least, to have their best team.
