The 2007 North Texas Mean Green football team represented the University of North Texas in the 2007 NCAA Division I FBS football season . The team was led by its new head coach Todd Dodge. He replaced Darrell Dickey, who was fired after going 3–9 in 2006. Dodge was regarded as one of the nation’s most successful high school football coaches amassing a 98–11 record overall at Carroll High School in Southlake, Texas. He was named National Coach of the Year by Schutt Sports in 2004 and by USA Today in 2005. His Southlake program produced five consecutive offensive players of the year in Texas. Dodge is also regarded by many FBS coaches as one of the nation's premiere offensive minds in developing a unique and effective scheme in his variation of the spread offense, in the much the same vein as Steve Spurrier and Mouse Davis.[citation needed] While at Southlake, Dodge helped the University of Missouri to implement his scheme.[citation needed]

The Mean Green played their home games on campus at Fouts Field in Denton, Texas.
