And I have worked for companies that don't offer even a 401K, much less a pension! I would think that no 401K is very uncommon in the DFW metroplex. Yes, I call it the ZERO 1K. And I was a corporate level manager at one time with nothing! The job market is definitely broken here in KY (I still have no 401K) but at least you can readily find employment with a 401K plan down there to help build retirement funds tax free. I do think the employer owes the employee a 401K at a minimum for being allowed to operate in the world's only super power country. That same working model is what was happening in college football though. Offer the players almost nothing until the system self-destructs. And here we are, an oligarchy type college football system unfolding. Even SMU $$ can't crack this system now. For the record, I think SMU is a very good school.

I was one of a few hundred UNT fans to attend this game. As bad as that defense was, we still had some size and talent back then.

But I am seeing this kind of behavior in the private sector job sector too as I am sure you are as well. There seems to be something going on and a lot of folks have shifted to a very opportunistic mind set.

Well, I do think Eric Morris is a winner, and I have confidence in him for the future of NT football. A young coach that understands young men and places an exciting brand of football on the field might just work if Coach Morris can improve our defense. NT had some close losses to some good football programs this year and he only really crapped the bed against Texas Tech. Coach Morris has my official support.

You have to admit, SMU looked really strong in the 2nd half against Clemson. This game was also played just 2.5 hrs. from Clemson which is a little unfair. If the game were played in Texas Stadium, maybe SMU would win.

Do Longhorn fans consider A&M their rival? I always thought UT (Texas) fans thought of OU as their bitter rival. I think the so-called rivalry is something cooked up by A&M fans personally. OSU keeps Ryan Day but it's hard to argue against firing a coach with $200M+ football budget and losing to a 7-5 Michigan team in Columbus.

Wow ! The Mean Green van fire pic looks so real ! AI is so amazing now.

The coaches caused the NIL issue in the first place with their outsized salaries and ridiculous employment contracts. And you better believe these AD's and coaches all are in on it and look after each other's financial interest. The players saw this and said "screw it" I'm getting paid too. How many of you on GMG have an employment contract or make what these clowns do a year? If you add up all the players and coaches and staff, what is that? Like 150 people? Even Ohio State's annual budget is only $215 million. In the business world, managing $200/million/year and 150 people isn't that big a deal and you certainly won't be compensated like a college football coach. This system is rigged! I say that coaches should be at will employees like the rest of us, now that they screwed up College Football.

I guess I misspoke, because I meant ULL would be more interesting. But UNT and BGSU have never met, so kind of interesting from that standpoint. I am not so sure we can take any bowl eligible team lightly.

21% according to Copilot.

A hard "no" from me playing WKU again. Please tell me that UNT is projected to go to a better bowl game than this if we win 7 games. Other Frisco Bowl projections show BGSU or Louisiana. That would be much more interesting. I live 730 miles from Frisco, so I won't attend frankly speaking. Watching it on TV.

The McNeese St. loss didn't concern me nearly as much as this win. This is an NAIA level program at a school where a very large percentage of students are "athletes". This could be a sign of a long season.

A great honor to host ARMY in Denton on Veteran's Day weekend too. And what a great recruiting day for the US Army playing in the state of Texas, with its huge pool of potential recruits.

And let's not forget that Wren left the DFW metroplex to live in West Virginia. Not sure why you would intentionally do that to yourself.

For those of you that majored in music or played in the marching band at NT, what the hell was up with the Memphis band that played the entire game? Were those actual songs they were playing? It sounded like just horn blowing. What an annoying atmosphere it sounded like on TV. Even my wife commented about how annoying it sounded there. If you were there, would love to hear about it. The Memphis band was playing during our onside kick too.
