Mean Green replace previously scheduled game vs. Texas Tech with matchup against Horned Frogs
DENTON, Texas – The UNT football program and head coach Neal Brown have announced it will play a contest at TCU in week two of the 2027 season at Amon G. Carter Stadium in Fort Worth.
The matchup with the Horned Frogs will replace a previously scheduled home game against Texas Tech. The Red Raiders submitted a notice of cancellation of the contest that had them set to play in Denton on Sept. 11, 2027.
Below is a statement from Vice President and Director of Athletics Jared Mosley:
"We recently received notification from Texas Tech that they must cancel the 2027 home football game at DATCU Stadium due to ongoing scheduling shifts across college football. We fully understand how conference requirements and the evolving landscape can impact even long-standing agreements. As a result, we are excited to announce a contest at TCU in week two of the 2027 season as the replacement. While the loss of a previously scheduled home game is disappointing, this opportunity ensures our fans a great opportunity to watch the Mean Green compete close to home. We remain committed to scheduling competitive, marquee opponents, both at home and on the road, that elevate our brand and create meaningful experiences for our student-athletes and fans. Additional details on UNT Athletics tickets for the TCU contest will be announced soon."
