What a stupid comment. There were more actual people in the seats than most of the other HoD games, we won convincingly, sold two allotments, and brought local recognition to the bowl. Give me a break. Had UNLV brought fans, there's a good chance we would have hit 50K. 36K fans is very convincing and better than what most BCS teams bring to bowl games. I think this should be our NOLA Bowl (like ULL.) You can bet as soon as we hit 6 they'll be on the phone again.

Outspoken critic. I was incredibly wrong about him. Leader. Needs to be in the HOF.

About 36,000 are UNT fans. No excuse not to sell out Apogee.

Ahem.

Thompson was on point that drive.

Probably will be announced upper 30s/lower 40s

Yet, UNLV only beat one team with a winning record and nearly lost to Hawaii. They're lucky to be in a bowl. There is no excuse for us to lose to them. At all. Will be a huge disappointment.

We'll see in 24 hours.

You do realize our first allotment was 10K? We had to buy a 2nd one.

How is the NO Bowl same at all? It's not. Probably 10K tickets total. Double that.

I can't tell you what they want, because I'd get banned.

Look what happened when we didn't bitch. Dallas lit up green this weekend and local media all reporting on us. I'd like to think GMG had a huge part in that.

Exactly this. Look, y'all love to sit around and talk about how we're so much less negative than bigger sports forums and that's a lie. Completely, not even close whatsoever. This place does have a bad rep among Mean Green land because of things like this very thread. I'll admit it, I've contributed my fair share to the negativity. But the problem here is that this place IS BAD. It looks BAD. So much complaining, so much negativity and when you call someone out for their terrible attitude, they tell you to stop blowing sunshine up everyone's asses. It's mindboggling. This is the best time in UNT's history which we don't even know whether will remain this way. But instead of discussing football, people complain that the Cowboys bumped the Mean Green. I see a lot of why people from other fanbases make fun of this place; it's because it's all infighting and a hilarious sense of grandeur. Like it or not, we are fighting an uphill battle and today is the first of many battles. This thread is stupid. But moreover, this thread is symptomatic of this place being a beating, a negative echo chamber that shuns the outsiders because you're not welcome unless you use funny witticisms and post good GIFs. This is a fantastic place to get updates on Mean Green land, but the conversations are just piss poor led by people who have made a career of bitching and moaning because people don't worship UNT and the AD not worshipping their ideas to the point of bowing to them simply because they donate $500 a year. Take, for example, the ticket fiasco. Clearly this office is new at distributing this many tickets for a bowl game. They were overwhelmed my demand. Hell, their stadium only seats 30,000. Yet all we can do is sit around and circlejerk about how "heads need to roll." Personally, my favorite complaint revolves around Villareal. Look around--UNT before RV was, what, in a decrepit stadium, barely FBS, a running joke across the country in basketball and football, students don't care and neither do alumni. Everything is falling apart. Everyone treats UNT as a commuter school. LOOK AROUND. Apogee, a Dallas Bowl, likely a 40K attended game, Dallas celebrating the Mean Green, a fancy scoreboard at the Pit, record setting attendance, 26k at a late season game, rivals, a new conference, good uniforms, not being looked at as a joke, incredible student support on par or better than a lot of Big 12 schools...yet you still whine and complain. It's a disgusting echo chamber. There's nothing wrong with nitpicking but UNT can DO NOTHING ever correctly for you people. Whatsoever. It always offends someone. Everyone points at the millennials for being a "me" generation...well, the amount of self-servitude and arrogance from this place is disgusting, revolting and problematic. That someone has to be the loudest MF'er on this board. This place is like a small town. Unhealthy and nosy. Maybe something would get done if the mods would do something other than take out their insecurities in life and from high school in other places rather than just post GIFs and haikus. But maybe I'm in dreamland. You know why I keep coming back? This place SHOULD be a great gathering place for Mean green fans. But it's not. It's a d**k-measuring contest. I have no doubt every one of y'all would be great to kick back and drink a beer with before a game. But on here, everyone gets a little braver and thinks that everyone should cower to their complaints. When I lived in Keller circa 2006, UNT was a joke athletically which bled over into academic beliefs. Different story now. UNT was irrelevant in Houston and I got so many "...why not go to UH or A&M?" questions. I run into UNT grads every where from Connecticut to NYC to Atlanta proudly repping the Mean Green. People in ATL think we're the new Boise State because of that game we played versus them combined with our bowl game. But maybe I'm blowing sunshine up everyone's asses.

So...let's see...3 players he "developed." Dunbar's team sucked but his stats were great in high school, btw. Get your nose out of Teflon Todd's ass.

They were complaining the other day because Dale Hansen bumped us for the Cowboys. Give me a break. Delusions of grandeur.

Dodge had no ability to develop players-make no mistake he is the worst coach ever at NT.

I hate Guy Fieri.

Yet the Cowboys pull nearly 100,000 fans every game.

Really hilarious that y'all are giving him a hard time for bumping UNT for the Cowboys.

Craig struggles against the pass as a fellow Browns fan, (my #2 team) I agree. Unfortunately the Browns are a massive dumpster fire. I think Craig will bolt if his starting spot is in jeopardy, he was not the problem with the defense.

I'm thinking more in the 40 range, solidly. With ULL and UNC's attendance, no reason we can't compete. Lot of buzz and high sales. Will be all the more disappointing when we end up drawing 20K again at home.

It was all UNC. Call me delusional, I expect this...similar situation.

They look more professional than 3XL's, which scream poorly designed jersey from an EA Sports game.

3XL's design will never ever see the light of day. Simply not professional enough, incorrect color scheme, doesn't use the correct logos and are just not feasible.

Weather Underground still has 10% and are the most accurate by far. Was right about UTSA. NOAA says Mostly Sunny. Stop using Weather.com! Least accurate by far.
