  1. Boom!
  2. Yes, Ohio state definitely wins and has 110k at every game because of their band uniforms.
  3. So, I asked this question at the coaches show for me, but I figured you all would enjoy it too. I hope the delivery was ok. Me and an open mic could be recipe for discomfort and awkwardness. I really enjoyed watching the coach show in person for the first time, but be prepared. As a newbie, you are required to ask a question.
  4. which game did the o-line play better for? The Lance Dunbar game at fouts, or the game in Manhattan a couple weeks ago? I guess you'd have to say this year even though the final margin was larger cause kstate is highly rated, so far, this year. But, Lance put up cartoon numbers against them in the Fouts finale... Either way, I want us to muscle up and do this again for sure! maybe Thompson will be able to loosen the D a but to allow for this type of game to happen again! Go Mean Green! Beat the Cougs!
  5. How is smoo not on this list? Are they paying espn too? Barely a whimper against Baylor and aTm, with a win over an fcs school. I am pretty sure they got blown out by their bye week too.
  6. What would get me excited more than anything would be some 3* DLine kids... DT's especially. As the kids Mac has brought in have more years under their belts of conditioning and coaching(technique and maturation), I feel like the team will improve by leaps and bounds. Pass rush and stopping the run, to me, wins games. Although Troy's bread and butter was the shotgun snap, pivot to the right or left and throw it out to the wr at the line of scrimmage(so pass rush wasn't a factor), I still feel like DT's.... in numbers, is where we need to focus and get excited if we get 4 or more...
  7. Good point. Forgot something obvious there.
  8. A bad alum(just rails on our precious mean green) and I were having a "discussion" about the fg kicking game, and I stated that I thought the kicking game would be a strength going into the season. He asked me why, and I told him that Olen was a pretty solid kicker... We looked at the stats for the last 2 seasons, and it was kind of shocking to me what I saw... Blocked fg's aren't tracked for a kicker's stats, but I was shocked to see that Olen only made 50% of his kicks as a sophomore, where in his freshman year, he burst onto the scene with 87%... Here are his makes/missed broken down by distance... xtra points 2010 21 - 23 2011 32 - 33 2012 8 - 9 1 - 19 -------kind of surprised that we didn't have ANY attempts from this close. don't think we are all that amazing with red zone efficiency. so, do we either score, turn the ball over, or go for it and fail on 4th down? 2010 0 - 0 2011 0 - 0 2012 0 - 0 20 - 29 2010 5 - 5 2011 2 - 3 2012 1 - 1 30 - 39 - darn near automatic. again, blocks not being counted on stats? 2010 1 - 1 2011 1 - 2 2012 5 - 6 40 - 49 - this is the biggest fall off... blocks? 2010 2 - 3 2011 3 - 9 2012 0 - 3 50+ - seems like when we have a kick in the 40 yard range, we should take an offsides/delay of game or sack to move us back to 50+. 2010 1 - 1 2011 2 - 2 2012 0 - 0 Hope Mr Olen rights the ship. We'll see. Go Mean Green!
  9. I F'ING LOVE TAILGATING! Carry on...
  10. Big answer by Monroe. Holy crap
  11. Pass rush needs to get better or baylor is gonna come back
  12. Why are all the articles abbreviated? Are they trying to preserve virtual ink? WTF? http://collegesportsblog.dallasnews.com/2012/09/north-texas-fifth-year-seniors-aiming-for-first-winning-season-nobody-wants-to-leave-college-without-any-hardware.html/
  13. like anyone can even know that...
  14. 35 - 31 UNT I will be hung over for a week. The mask's boat will sink. Ksu will realize purple is the gayest color for a cat anybody has ever heard of.
  15. We beat out an sec school for this kid. Nice!
  16. I, too, watched the broadcast the next morning after attending. Think it was obvious who was paying for the broadcast. Nice to see positive spins on everything for UNT. Stadium looked good, student section looked packed. Wings stuck out cause they were empty. Alumni side looked less full than I expected. They missed some things in the broadcast like who the penalty was on in the trice int play. They were obviously selling apogee and the environment. Maybe too much... That is fine with me though. Barnett has a very good voice, but there were a few awkward moments in some of the interviews, like mercer and Villarreal. Other than that, it was very nice to be able to see the game in person and rewatch with commentary and a nice looking broadcast. Atmosphere can get better over tv with more people in the stands. Not bad though overall. GMG
  17. Gotta say that was freakin funny. The mask... Wow. But my return volley is how many purple cats have you ever seen? Equally Stupid. Go mean green. Purple cats are more SG than space. Suck on that mask.
  18. The band can show up in whatever.... If we win football games and the band continues to sound great, wearing uniforms makes ZERO difference. I am going to report you to BAD radio for gay or not gay.
  19. Saw the db from Denton today. He looked a little bigger than I expected. Good to see you attending John S., and I won't try to spell your last name.
  20. Watching dvr'ed broadcast on 21 this morning, the students kicked our(the alumni side) butts last night. Well done students. For shame alumni. We need to show up for Troy and shiw the students we mean business. Our attendance circle drill, the students win game one. A little healthy competition?
  21. Actual 25k Announced 29k
  22. So, is there a reason it is listed as start time on channel 21 directv shows 7? Wanted to watch again at home for full analysis after seeing the game from my awesome seats in Apogee. I know Dave Barnett is doing play by play.
  23. If lance wants to sit down with the common folk, my 5 year old and I mightl have an extra ticket. My daughter knows 2 names associated with UNT football: Lance Dunbar and Dan McCarney. I am not sure who would be more excited, me or her. We would love to have you lance. Edit: Sorry lance, found a friend to attend with my daughter and I. Go mean green!
  24. 41 to 14. UNT
  25. I would like to point out how well DT performed. Yes he had a pick, but he put the ball on the money a couple of times(in addition to the 2 td passes) where the receivers flat out dropped them. I thought he showed poise and accuracy against this LSU defense that is one of the best, if not THE best in the country... of course Bama and a few other have a ton to say about that even after just the first week of the season... Anyways, as long as we are giving props. Receivers, outside of Chancellor, have plenty to of "catching up to do". Ok, that was bad, but you get my point. Can't wait for the home opener, even though it is Texas Southern. Go Mean Green!
