That looks like a school that accurately counts its butts in the seat attendance. Anyone have pictures of Huskie Stadium for that those games? I'd like to see what that looks like. GMG

HouCat, appreciate your input and friendly banter. Your crew (literally your tailgate crew) will outnumber NT fans this year because: We can't afford bowl game pricing. We, with a long history of bowl losses, feel our 7-5 opponent doesn't merit playing a 6-6 team. We don't like the AD because he weakly addressed the NIL situation. We feel overmatched because our rent-a-QB (and WR, etc) cancelled his lease before the game and all remaining players, well, see the part about losing bowl games. We basketball. We tailgate, and $MU won't let us. And if they did, we would tailgate the whole game and not be in the stadium because, well, see the part about losing bowl games. We wanted to play in New Mexico or Shreveport or the Bahamas or Boston, or not Frisco. We don't want to play in $MU's house because, well, see the part about losing bowl games and because we never beat the team whose house we will be playing in. We can't afford to give NIL money so we can't overpay players on one year contracts that will require even more money to stay a second year. We don't like cold weather, or warm weather, or sunny or rainy weather. We don't like the uniforms that the players that aren't paid much decide they want to wear. We aren't willing to risk the chance that the $MU A/V system will be loud and will interrupt the band. Prove me wrong, good guys, or otherwise #FlameAway. HouCat, see you in Dallas. I'll be the one wearing green. And I hope to share a dram of a nice peaty, smoky Scotch with you. Inside and/or outside the stadium. GMG

Does that infer we can count on these four playing? GMG

@FirefightnRick Kind of the App State of its day. Some of my favorite games came during that time. On the whole, I liked Matt Simon and I loved our team. GMG

If we are stuck with NIL and portal, I think portal shouldn't open up until after bowl season. GMG

Believe this has been shared but yesterday's NYT fish wrap predicts Bowling Green vs NT at SMU, Jan 3. GMG

Another Campbell North Texas jersey would be nice to have in the family. He went for 89 yards and a TD on the ground and 6 catches for 74 yards against us this year. GMG

Good point but also worth noting that if the defense doesn't get their opponent's offense off the field efficiently, the offense of said defense sees its TOP drop also. Allegedly. Conversely, when the offense fourth and fifth string running backs continue to burst 30+ yards for touchdowns, inefficient defenses, unable to put up token resistance, give the ball back to the offense quickly, Rinse and repeat. GMG

Two words: bowl pool. Lots of folks put up a few bucks, make 40 picks, then rank them for confidence 1-40. I watch at least a part of all 40 games. BTW, not sure how the playoff games will impact the pool structure this year. GMG

SI/Patrick Andres predicts NT vs OHIO in Detroit College Football Bowl Projections After Week 14 (3 hours ago) Game Above Sports Bowl, Dec 26. I am hoping for Shreveport, Dec 28. GMG

I'm not sure if its less quality or a coaching issue. I think they play to the level of the team they support. That said (and I know it didn't add a thing to the discussion), they make up about half of the student side attendance. I think we're gonna need a bigger band. GMG

I recall seeing two MBB games in the Snake Pit. I believe there was some sort of conflict in the Super Pit. But they were an absolute blast to watch. Great fan support, seats right down to the court, noisy as hell. If it is usable, I think that venue would be great for volleyball and I would support WBB there also. GMG

Wow....didn't know Lahaina was capable of hosting a hoops tournament. Good news. Pulling for Memphis. GMG

Is the Snake Pit still a thing? That room would rock. GMG

There was the ceremonial releasing of those seagull looking birds that hang out at the Mt. Lewisville trash dump. Two of them. GMG
