I don't think it will be on in Dallas, as the Stars play that night on FSN. For those with DirecTV, try Ch. 639. I believe it is a FSNSW alternate. That's where all of the Astros games are on if the Rangers are playing too. It may be on there.

Be there, no question. Will be bringing a few friends as well.

Definately can't miss this one! I'll be there with the wife and a few friends (but not sure of the number yet).

Just curious; any Allen grads here. Class of '02 for me.

I plan on getting there at 9 AM (we're cooking breakfast). I agree though, if you get there around 11 you should be fine.

Actually, they are $20 for reserved seating, $10 for general admission. http://www.meangreensports.com/ViewArticle...&SPSID=9491

This should be fun. About a 4-5 hour drive from those in the Metroplex.

Great post, Mark. I couldn't agree more.

I didn't realize that the other channels were included too. Good thing I put the "I could be wrong..." clause in there first, just in case! As far as why it would be blacked out to a primary watching audience, it doesn't make any sense at all. I'm just telling you what I was told.

I could be wrong, but SportsSouth is not a Fox Sports Channel. I called DirecTV to find out if we would get the game at T. J. Hartford's so we could have people in to watch it. It was too confusing for them and they had to speak with their supervisors to get a final answer. I was told the game would not be on, even though we are getting SportsSouth normally, as it will be blacked out once the game begins.

6'2" 175 lbs doesn't seem very big to me. I'm 6'2" 180 lbs, pretty skinny, and can bench about 7 1/2 lbs.

Thanks for the info and welcome to the board. Anybody plan on making the trip this weekend?

I think 7:30 on weeknights, 7:00 on Saturday nights. The best of both worlds.

See everyone at the tailgate. Will be leaving in just a few minutes! Get there early today. It's a wonderful day for some football.

Good to hear. Definately, the right move.

I would suggest getting there early. It is Saturday night, so we do expect to fill the place up. You can catch the end of UT/OU before the real game starts!

Looks like we should have a few people, at least. Tell your friends and show up in force!

Hey everyone, T. J. Hartford's in Lewisville will be hosting a game watching party for the North Texas vs. Louisiana-Lafayette game on Saturday night! Quite a few of you came out to our event on Saturday, the 18th with the Denton Co. chapter of the Exes and had a great time, and we'd love to have you back. Drink specials will be: $2.50 20oz Domestic Drafts $2.50 Margaritas $2 Wells And... $0.05 games for the kids Please reply to this thread if you plan to come out. The more the better, and the more Mean Green fans we have, the more we'll outnumber the A&M and Okie St. fans.

They were all out of beer by about 4:00 anyway, so I don't think that made a difference.

TVguide.com and Ch. 21 website don't show the game being on. Hope you're right!

The North Texas vs. Louisiana-Lafayette is on ESPN Regional and GamePlan, but doesn't appear to be on Ch. 52 as in years past. Anyone have any info?

I agree completely. We sometimes forget about how these guys are only 18-23 years old. They will make physical mistakes. It happens, even to professionals making millions. I think it's great to see a coach stick up for this players like that. Who wouldn't want to go play for him?

I seem to remember a game against Middle Tennessee with a great crowd. Either way, pack Fouts tonight!

Thanks to Drex and Pittsburgh Paints for doing this project. The pictures look great, and I can't wait to see it for myself on Saturday!
