They have played only 4 games at home. 2 against non D 1 schools and also hosted Tx Southern. A friend who has not attended a game in years, after watching us play UTA said "NT had better athletes, but they are better coached."

So the 45,000 is a predicted attendance for this year. I tend to be optimistic so I hope you are right.

The official listed attendance for 2013 was 38,380. Posts have said 40,000 and now 45,000. If that many more tickets have been subsequently sold for that game from 2013 then no one should have an excuse not to buy tickets for this year's game.

Last HOD bowl my 2 year old grandson's ticket was full price.

Make it $50,000 and all will be forgiven.

Yes. However I am not posting it on the board.

Same difference.

Final 72-61 in Austin. Tough game coming up on Saturday. Expect UTA to bring a good number of fans.

I have had T-shirt fans of other schools, including NT graduates, ask me why I don't support "bigger" programs instead of NT. I always point out that not only am I a graduate and support my school but we are one of only a handful of schools that have never been placed on NCAA probation for any sport. At that point they usually admit they were unaware of that fact and then usually change the subject.

50 is Shane Temara he is a new JC transfer.

1. I found the MTSU chant entertaining. I could have cared less about their feelings. 2. "Dickey did not put a lot of emphasis on that game." Really, he played an injured QB with a knee brace risking further injury for a meaningless game? 3. We were a 5 win conference co-champion in a 7 team startup league with a few teams that had just moved up (didn't' the SBC, that created the Bowl, have to get some kind of exemption for that alone?). The difference is not that substantial.

Littrel unlike his predecessor takes personal responsibility.

He did call you Coach, right? Your disagreement with Flanagans coaching is well known. We were in fact Conference Co Champions with an 8-3 Middle Tennessee team that beat an SEC team, destroyed Troy, lost to LSU and Mississippi, and did not go to a bowl. We went to the bowl on a head to head victory. We could in fact have declined and let them in. I saw several MTSU fans who had already booked New Orleans trip and they would chant "MTSU we got screwed we got screwed."

I second that. Great beer selection and pretty good turnout of fans.

I was also on the bus. The Casino stop on the way paid for my trip. We ended that season with a loss to a Troy team that was in transition to FBS. The bowl trip was great fun and I think the extra practice time, even though we lost the bowl, ultimately paid off in my opinion.

Aren't you the same guy that showed up in New Orleans, for a 5-7 team that lost the bowl, all pimped out in a fuzzy lime green jacket etc. For half of that season you were calling for Dickie to be fired even with your good buddy Ramon Flanigan as OC. The best thing that has come out of this thread is the return of El Guapo. Take the offer if it comes.

Yes.

North Texas - Bowl UTEP - No Bowl

I will be there. Located at the northeast corner of Oak and Austin.

Don't forget my man Elijah McIntyre. He is about to kick it up a notch.

Remember how we nearly lost Mac after the HOD bowl and had to up his contract? Could history repeat itself?

You mean left to take a HC job right? Rod Rust was head coach at New England years after he left. Wasn't Corky later a D2 head coach?

I predict Frank Wilson to SMU if this happens.
