  1. Herman's last stand was a good one. He is on his way to Texas or College Station. Good win for H Town beating paper tiger #2. Beat Southern Miss GMG
  2. Of course we will most likely get FIU next year when they turn the corner. Let's Go Mean Green!!!!!
  3. Well we just lost 3 so let's just win 3 to finish the year. Take'em on strong and finish the year with a bang! GMG
  4. Love La Tech's program and band. They are the class of the west and we just need to keep building. I feel we played them pretty tough but we're outgunned. It's a great benchmark program I've been following for years when living out west. Saw them a lot in Hawaii always solid. Appreciated the crowd and spirit they brought to Apogee. GMG
  5. We suffer from a lack of yell leaders coordinating the experience. Everybody does their part but it feels disconnected and has for 30 years. The dj needed to be playing nothing but burn baby songs the Roof is on fire, songs anything fire and yell leaders need to get the chant of burn burn burn as the fire erupted. It's about experience and there were solid ingredients but need the spark. The great thing is I am in a t shirt and shorts at my campsite whereas many of these in the past were in the frigid. now beat La Tech! GMG
  6. I know they are a rival because I want nothing more than 2 things this weekend: 1. Mean Green victory 2. Middle to pound the dirty birds into submission out in the Boro. gMg
  7. I always felt Mac didn't take the rivalry seriously. Can someone at the Coaches Show ask Littrell if he realizes the magnitude of this win to the fans? I can't stand them and I that day we open up a can of whoop arse on them will be delicious. I will savor that win even if it is the only one of that year. I missed last year's game so I have never seen them beat the dirty birds. Need a coach who wins (got him) and a coach that can beat UTSA. That is my hope folks. No looking back - look forward. Now beat the Dawgs! GMG
  8. As a fortunate Mean Green road warrior I have to digest on the weirdness that was that House of Horrors known as the Alamodome. 1. First of all the good and please UNT students, Talons, AD - make this happen. Did you notice the big unified deal UTSA made between the 3rd and 4th quarters. The Roadkill mascot running into the center of the field flag in tow, swinging it crazy with the band making the powerful Jaws building entrance and the unveiling of the sweet "Come and Take It" banner. Dam that was outstanding and something I have wanted the Mean Green to do for a long time! BYU has a coordinated band, mascot, cheerleader, crowd intimidating ritual and now freaking UTSA does too. I don't know where to go buy this banner for the students. I would get the gofundmepage underway tomorrow if I knew how to make this happen for the rest of the year. Buy it and launch the plan at Southern Miss and the Bowl Game. This is is not the government we need to and can move fast. Please someone on the inside get band man, talons, cheerleaders and Scrappy on the same page to get the team pumped up going into the fourth. UTSA's band played hey baby for the fun of it in the middle of the second quarter. Hey baby is not tradition, it is not intimidating, it makes my ears bleed and is so bloody weak it just pales in comparison again to what the 6 year old Runners are doing out there. 2. WTF was up with the band. How does a 48 year old fan know when you play the 3rd down North Texas Fight chant and the 20 year old Drum Major kept playing it on second down. I know people are laughing thinking I am being ridiculous with this detail, but it's what I do - look at details for a living. The band was OFF all night long! I don't get it and first of all where were they? Why did our full band not make one road trip this year? That's a legitimate question - I mean we are 4.5 hours away. We were 4 hours away from Houston and didn't send the full band. A full band in the dome knowing when to play what makes an in game experience difference. Further the band needs to be playing constantly. They sat on their hands when UTSA was on 3rd and 4th down. They played the North Texas Fight song on first down when WE WERE ON OFFENSE! WTF? This band needs to join the Wrenovation going on and fast. Smastrek and Wren force this band to get cooler uniforms that can be worn in September (but a real uniform). Make them have a coordinated march into the stadium - lure me into the stadium before the Star Spangled Banner. First impressions matter. 3. Scrappy standing on the Roadrunner logo at the front of the game and digging his foot into the beak and jumping on it was not only disrespectful but down right comical as they proceeded to kick our arse all over the field that night. Everybody including Scrappy thought we won the game before the first snap. Fans calling this a trap game made me laugh. We are the trap game brothers and sisters. 4. The Alumni Tailgate party was okay. We had a nice time and there was a good turnout, but I found myself wanting to be at the UTSA party next door because there were tv's to watch games, a dj spinning upbeat music - it was more of a party than ours. For some reason I had a lot more fun at the Rice Tailgate than I did the UTSA one. 5. Next time we play the Texas teams can we get blocks of rooms where Mean Green fans can stay together? I found us spread out all over the city which is fine as there are many great options. But as a fan who has traveled to all of the games it would be cool to stay at "The Mean Green Fans hotel." I would think in Houston and San Antonio you should definitely be able to sell out those room blocks. You know I love a post experience feedback form to fill out. Had we somehow won I still would have had the above points to express. Beat La Tech! Go Mean Green!!!!!
  9. Dallas is awesome and I heart the Big D. San Antonio has some charm and a much not to desire. Every town has some great things and sheety things. I am just glad I left San Antonio a long time ago and grew up in the Fabulous Metroplex. Blessed to go to school in Denton. Give me the Katy Trail, Bishop Arts, M Streets, Lower Greenville, Lakewood and White Rock. Yeah you can keep San Antone and that annoying program. Just beat'em. GMG
  10. I can't stand this program. I hate losing to them. Their fans are obnoxious. The Dome is a bad stadium. Their fans aren't welcoming of visiting fans. The students who decided to set up shop in the UNT student section just in front of the students were pure class. I'm from San Antonio but glad to call Dallas home. GMG
  11. Let's make this a role reversal. Remember in year one playing them they came to Denton with a huge following spattered all over Apogee. It was freezing cold that day and they were hyped. Time for us to show up loud, proud and rolling. Bring it Mean Green Nation all four quarters. Let them hear us Caw! GMG
  12. Staying red roof inn plus. Said it was walking distance from the Dome so no parking drama which will be nice. We will drive everywhere else. Go Mean Green!!!!!
  13. Man I remember the frustration in that middle game of not being able to get the raiders off the field - so many long 3rd down conversions made. Same with smu. Our d plays bigger in a rematch and I think we have a chance at winning those games. That's going to be the ticket to more wins this year. GMG
  14. bama Tennessee Air Force New Mexico Wisconsin Ohio state and 30 year reunion. Best most convenient bye ever! GMG
  15. 3 in our group staying hells kitchen area. Ferry bound as well. GMG
  16. It was a very low energy tailgate and first half. I almost felt like the bottom was about to fall out from under us but not in an anxious "I hope it doesn't happen," but rather a "When is the 3rd and 49 going to happen?" Then the fake punt and fight happened. It was totally on after that and those 15k or whatever were there were off the chain for the rest of the game. It was awesome. I have witnessed 2 of the most incredible nights of Mean Green football in a span of a few weeks - Rice was epic. Marshall was stunning and just fun! GMG P.S. - Yes we need the words to the fight song and alma mater up there so we can boom it out!
  17. I don't recall our coaches saying that either. Beat Marshall GMG
  18. Watching La Tech and WKU is sobering. Those two programs are high octane and will be extremely tough to even hang with. I also want that big ole banner like I saw in the La Tech student section. The Fear the Frog, big Y in Provo and La Tech banners when coordinated with the band and students at a certain reveal point during the game - kind of like Hey Baby only cooler and way less annoying. Better get Marshall, Army, UTSA, Southern Miss and UTEP. GMG
  19. Time to position ourselves now to tie up with Baylor, Tech, Kansas State and TCU. Just keep winning and growing Mean Green! GMG
  20. They are a year or two ahead of where we want to be, but Stranger Things have happened under the Apogee Night. Let's bring a volcanic show of emotional support for the Mean Green this Saturday! GMG
  21. I love the Boise idea. Get the fans and students into it and create some awesome photo shots to sell in the bookstore after the season. GMG
  22. Love the outreach. Truly impressed with our fresh urgent Leadership. I guess they technically are buffaloes but Thundering Herd is one of the coolest names out there. Great job! GMG
  23. Can we have one? I also like the way the Rebels trumpet the gameday activities including the team arrival time. Sell me some new gear hand out black and green pom poms - it's short notice but Marshall would be good since we will need some color differentiation! GMG
  24. I don't know, the team I saw playing out there this past weekend looks like they could be striving for bowl eligibility deep in November. I just don't think La Tech, S Miss, Marshall and MTSU are going to pile drive us like I thought they would before the season started. I know it was one game but I had not seeing us win in Houston since like the 80's and even then that was on the highlights while living Stranger Things. I think San Antonio rises up and plays tough in SAT and gets us. I think MTSU/Marshall is a split - leaning toward beating Marshall. I think we get hammered by WKU and beat UTEP. So that gives us 4 wins. La Tech, Southern Miss and Army feel like toss up games to me. We get 2 of those and we are bowling. GMG
