Baby Arm!

Great job all around! Thanks for giving us fans a great gameday experience. I had 5 guest come up for this game and they will definately be back!

Unfreakinbelieveable! One of there posters goes to list reasons why SMU lost, but he doesnt post the #1 reason-- NORTH TEXAS IS A BETTER FOOTBALL TEAM THAN SMU!!!!!!!!!!!!

Really, bare? Thats a word I wouldnt use it was pretty full from where I was sitting. And from my view on the deck during the game both sided seemed about equitable. I was shocked there weren't more in the endzones though. All the pregame buzz had this being a near sellout. I guess this proves that Baylor definately travels a lot better than SMU

No they didn't. I got it from the ticket office that they returned 1500 tickets. And seriously do you think there were more SMU'ers in those two sections than on the alumni side? There were empty spots all through SMU's secton. Even our student section wasn't completely full. There were empty spots up high and on the edges (This is not an indictment of the students. They did a great job! Very Loud!)

Wonder why he wasn't driving to Denton to see North Texas vs SMU

Im going to be one of the early bird. I'm setting up by 10 am. I know thats early but I'll have the satellite hooked up and watching the days games. Feel free to stop on by.

There is also a pep rally at Clark Park on Friday night.

You may just have the mix a little heavy. Mine takes 50:1 mixture, check the owners manual and mix up a fresh batch.

3 rules Arrive early Wear Green Be Loud!!!

20,000k plus in attendance according to the MTSU radio broadcast.

Hey, butt sweat and jumpsuits worked for Elvis!

If only the coach would have played him in the 4th quarter....they could've won State!

Is your name Uncle Rico?? I'll bet you can throw a pass a quater mile too

Check out this thread from the Phonyfans... Phonyfans.com

but it's done out of love and respect.

Ok, I saw this on another board but I'm not above stealing a good idea if it would increase attendance. 1. Buy an ad in every high school football game program within an hours drive of the staduim that includes schedule and ticket info. 2. Donate a set of tickets (Family 4 pack) to all those schools booster clubs to be awarded each high school game. Most booster clubs give out a prize each quarter. All procedes would go to the program of choice. 3. Allow youth sport leagues, non-profit oraganizations, boy scouts/girl scouts ect sell tickets door to door or at stores as a fund raiser. They can keep $2 dollars for every ticket sold. If the group sells an average of 10 tickets per member they all recieve free general admission tickets. How many times have you bought things while walking into Wal Mart just because you did not want to say no to the kids? . UNT gets the money, it counts towards the attendance requirement and maybe just a few will show uip to the game

This game must have been created by one of these guys

Description of the old stadium sounds very familar...... New stadium, new optimism for Stanford faithful Associated Press STANFORD, Calif. -- Trent Edwards walked into the new Stanford Stadium on the first day of fall practice and was taken aback by the changes. "I got goosebumps," the senior quarterback said. "I think every guy on the team probably did. It will be a different energy in there." The $90 million renovation of Stanford Stadium included the removal of 35,000 seats. The stadium, which was rich in history but low on atmosphere, has been torn down and rebuilt into a smaller, more intimate facility in the nine months since last season ended. The track that surrounded the field and left fans so far away that coach Walt Harris said he couldn't see or hear them during some games is gone. The last row of the lower deck is as close to the field as the first row was in the old stadium. The number of seats has been decreased from 85,500 to 50,000 to make for a more intimate setting. The double-deck structure and metal bleachers in the corners of the stadium are expected to increase the crowd noise and finally give Cardinal opponents something to worry about. "I don't think we ever really had a home-field advantage," receiver Evan Moore said. "Sometimes we played better on the road because we were a little more excited to play and there was a little more of an atmosphere. Sometimes when we played here and would run out for warmups and there wasn't really anyone in the stadium, it was kind of a downer." Stanford has always had some of the best facilities and winningest programs in college athletics -- except in football. The old stadium was out of date, rarely filled and usually quiet. It was quite the contrast from Maples Pavilion, where Moore played for parts of two seasons with the Cardinal basketball team. Maples, which was renovated in 2004, is known for the crazed fans and deafening noise that make it one of the tougher arenas for visitors in the Pacific-10 Conference. "I think this could be a football version of Maples," Moore said. "A lot of students here might not know much about basketball, but they go because it's fun. I think that's the way Stanford Stadium will be. The same fans from [Maples] will be there. Why can't they be loud there? Hopefully we can perform for them and make it fun." The $90 million renovation project began last Nov. 26, immediately after the team's 38-31 loss to Notre Dame in the season finale. That was one of three home losses last season in games Stanford led in the final minute -- comebacks the Cardinal hope will be more difficult to mount in a louder stadium. A win in any of those games would have sent the Cardinal to a bowl in Harris' first season as coach. Instead the 5-6 record offered only a slight improvement from the 10 wins in Buddy Teevens' three-year tenure. The continuity of a second year in Harris' system, the return of Edwards and nine other offensive starters, and the new stadium provide optimism on The Farm this season. Senior associate sthletic director Darrin Nelson, a former star running back for the Cardinal who played 11 seasons in the NFL, is a sign that the school is committed to putting together a winning football team that can eventually compete for a national championship. "With this stadium our university is telling us go for it," Nelson said. "We can do this. We've been good to great in almost every sport we've had here. We've gone up and down in football. Now it's our turn to focus on football a little more and try to turn things around." Stanford hasn't been to a bowl since Tyrone Willingham's last season in 2001 and has played in just one Rose Bowl since the 1971 season. Harris is trying to build a program that can do those things consistently. The two biggest keys for Stanford this season are replacing 10 defensive starters and keeping Edwards healthy. Edwards has been injured in each of his three seasons and was knocked out of four games last season, when the Cardinal allowed 42 sacks. "I refer to Trent as the best quarterback nobody has heard of," Harris said. "He's one of the most talented guys I've had the opportunity to work with. He makes some great throws that make me shake my head. We just have to keep him healthy." Edwards was very effective when healthy, completing 62.7 percent of his passes and throwing for 17 touchdowns and only seven interceptions. He feels even more comfortable this year in his second season under Harris. The Cardinal also have another motivating factor this year. "We don't want to see them throw that big stadium up there and sell all these season tickets and put our pictures on the sides of trains and then go out and not perform," Moore said.

(AP) FORT WORTH, Texas The Fort Worth Bowl has a new name and a new sponsor. Bowl president Tom Starr today announced the game will now be known as the Armed Forces Bowl -- to honor our nation's men and women in uniform. As part of the name change, the bowl announced Bell Helicopter as its new title sponsor. The bowl, going into its fourth year and played on T-C-U's campus, didn't have a title sponsor last year when Kansas beat Houston. This year's game is December 23rd and will match Conference U-S-A against the Mountain West. Starr hopes thousands of military personnel will attend the game. Bowl festivities will include a fan area featuring military hardware, a flyover, induction ceremonies on the field and a military band and honor guard. Military veterans will receive ticket discounts. Active duty personnel will be given complimentary tickets.

What happened to the return game Air Force owes us? Last I heard it was on for 2009.

Probably.....it's how our luck has been running lately. It's going to be a long, long year

Let's just hope there are no problems! But our luck doesn't seem to run that way.

Quinn injures hand in practice Receiver to see doctor today 11:42 PM CDT on Monday, August 21, 2006 By Brett Vito/Staff Writer North Texas wide receiver Johnny Quinn injured his left hand during the Mean Green’s morning practice on Monday and watched the afternoon session with his hand heavily bandaged. Quinn said he was not sure if he broke any bones and will visit a doctor this morning. The senior is one of the key cogs in the Mean Green’s offense and was a Preseason All-Sun Belt Conference selection. The former McKinney standout has led the Mean Green in receiving in each of the last three seasons and ranks among the top eight players in school history in receiving yards (2,085), receptions (130) and touchdowns (17). “We will see tomorrow morning, but if it is up to me, I am going to play,” Quinn said. The Mean Green have just 11 days remaining before opening the season with a game against Texas in Austin on Sept. 2. Losing Quinn would be a major blow for UNT, which is looking to bounce back from a 2-9 season. Quinn is not only the Mean Green’s top receiver, he is also heavily involved in UNT’s special teams as a punt and kick returner. “Johnny has been an outstanding player for us as a receiver, a blocker, a special teams player and a leader,” UNT coach Darrell Dickey said. “We expect big things from him this year.” UNT would have to dip into perhaps the deepest position on its roster if Quinn has to miss time. UNT returns its top four wide receivers from last season, a group that also includes junior Brandon Jackson and seniors Joel Nwigwe and Zach Muzzy.

The plan has always been to build the 30k seats in the initial build. With an expansion of 20k endzone seats in the future if ever needed

I hate to give A&M credit for anything but they have a name there for students like her. 2%'ers. I think she fits the description. She's only at UNT to get a diploma then move on. She's not going to be the type of alumna to follow her school or give anything back. I've seen it many times before. Countless students that refuse to get involved. They don't go to any athletic events, don't join any campus group, wouldn't think of pledging a greek organization or talons. They spend as little time on campus as they possibly can, They just go to class, then go home or to work. And then have the gall to complain that they didn't get a traditional college experience. It's not the Sunbelt's fault she doesn't have school spirit. It's her own.
