We have nobody to blame but ourselves. We couldn't beat a FCS team at home & paid the price.
Do you think teams like Syracuse , Boston College , etc wanted anything to do with us in a bowl? I don't think any AQ school would jump up and down by playing North Texas. They couldn't sell it to their fans , coaches or team.
Just look at all those teams we wanted that were mentioned, They are playing other AQ schools for a reason
We can't be one of the worst programs in the country , suddenly have some success and then immediately demand some name school from a name conference. In my best Jason Garrett voice, " this is a process"
I would have loved someone like Syracuse or even the AF Bowl vs Navy, but it didn't work out that way. We have to continue to win and gain respect. Winning a bowl game is a start and I think UNLV is a very winnable game.
Again, we had a great season ( by our terms) but at the end of the day we were the 5th placed Team in a overall pretty bad conference. Playing in a million dollar bowl on New Years Day is a pretty good thing , no matter who the opponent
I'll disagree with you, I think a bowl win over another mid major is better than a possible lopsided loss to a AQ school. Well just have to agree to disagree
Where are u staying , the Omni ? Tailgate ?
