UNT 90 Grad

The Belt is getting a lot of play out of this SEC game of the week thing. Next week it's Troy and Florida followed in a week by UNT @ Alabama.

I was at my mother-in-law's house. Her husband went to Ball State and they had ESPNU. It was a friendly end to the game at their house...nothing like Boise State.

Stumbled on this gem from last night. The video isn't that great but the audio makes me giddy. ASBt18u09k0

Keep in mind that Tobe's tweets are more than just him going off on his own. MeanGreenSports.com has links to join Twitter spicifically so that you can start receiving Tobe's tweets. A lot of this is marketing and promotion rather than a player just being a pre-madonna or losing focus. This is promoted by the university.

I agree. 6 hours 'til kickoff.

I attached my car flags this morning and am sporting my North Texas Izod shirt and UNT lanyard. I'm ready. I'll be watching the game tonight at a Ball State grad's house. Make me proud Mean Green!

NORTH!!!

TEXAS!

We should see a dramatic turn around in Riley's QB rating when comparing this year to last. Maybe the one of the largest turn arounds in history. As you might remember, 50% of his passes in 2008 were interceptions and the rest were incompletions. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=385052

So does this mean we aren't sending the cheerleaders and band to Muncie? Are we only sending some? The more green the better on national television. http://www.meangreensports.com/ViewArticle...tclid=204773658

Based on history, I think DeLoach is most likely to "Go Off" and I don't think there is anyone that won't "Let" him. Thats about how seriously we should consider this thread IMO. Real productive.

I like it too. Significant steps forward in providing content to fans.

If we torch Ball State do you still think 6-6 is our cap? I hope to see the Dodges take us bowling. That'd be the stuff movies are made of. Let the koolaid flow like a river!

Great article!

I have a few days off this week and thought I might head up to Denton. If I remember right, they still have two-a-days going on Does anyone know times?

Don't know if anyone cares or not, but it looks like this year's SBC PSA starts out with a photo clip of Gio throwing a pass with Micah out in front of him. Looks like "NORTH TEXAS" was whited out from the side of the helmet for some reason. http://www.sunbeltsports.org/newMediaPlaye...;CLIP_ID=628347

I saw that too. I actually still have the UNT FIU game on the DVR from last year. I went back and looked and it was still Doug Graber and Sam Smith. Guess the bio is wrong.

At least this means we won't have to fight through his fine work during the telecasts this year. I wonder what talent ESPN will send in to replace him.

Okay. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the same Doug Graber that has been the color guy on ESPN Plus' coverage of the Sun Belt games over the past several years? Now the Defensive Coordinator at Ball State? This could be just the edge Ball State needs over us. If someone else picked up on this previously and posted, sorry I missed it. IMO, if he coaches like he commentates, should be a big day for Riley. I just wish it was Sam Smith taking over their offensive side of the ball. That would really be offensive.

Wouldn't it be great if UNT had a throwback game and sported the flying worm era unis? My guess is that this would be a bit too pricey...more than sporting black Kmart jerseys for a single game anyway. Just pulling things into the scope of this area of the forum.

Ummm. I think we need all the fans we can get, IMO. UNT has a great game experience to offer. I'll bet there is a big chunk of our alumni base that isn't aware because they haven't given a game a try since before Rick took the reigns as AD. I wish we'd find a way to incent our D/FW alumni to just come to a game so we could get them hooked. By the way, Craig and Corby both drive me nuts with their OU douchery and relative indifference toward their alma maters.

So if Todge were to get the axe, would Riley pack his bags? What if Riley has an amazing year that isn't reflected in the W column. There are too many variables to make a prediction based only on wins and loses. IMHO

I'm with you.

I'll be there with the wife and our 3 kiddos.
