Rice is the most overrated. Cushy ass schedule last year got them 6-6 and now everyone thinks they're world beaters.

I genuinely think you have psychiatric problems.

Exactly! Enjoy this team! Not sure that we will be as good next year but enjoy it this year because this year's team ain't no joke. Enjoy it while you can! I'm all aboard! I know EMU sucks but damn, Ball has been impressive outside of the NT game. We're that good.

We've had disagreements but I need to buy you a beer.

The amount of positive press we got today will help attendance. People are talking good about us.

I think we need to stop bitching about the defense giving up yards and just focus on the fact that they make the big turnovers at the big times and live by the bend-but-don't-break philosophy. I'm confident in the D and Derek. Not so much on the offensive line or the wide receivers. Also Zac Whitfield needs to be off the field. He's the problem with our D. Also our special teams is a game changer. Brelan is the best returner in the NCAA.

Can we play D&D too?

Zing!

I think GMG.com should put a strict NO POSITIVE THREADS moratorium in place. Anyone who doesn't obey is immediately banned for life and forced to sit in the visitor section of Apogee.

You're so angry right now you are just dropping typos everywhere. Step back, man.

We should've lost like FIU did. Because you know, getting national headlines and respect for a gutsy performance against an elite SEC team at home isn't a huge deal. We should've just lost 72-0, same thing, right? I'm disappointed we lost but still can confidently see 8-4. When is the last time we've been 2-2 OOC? You don't just go from garbage to excellence overnight. The Louisiana schools are pretty much the only ones I can think of that has done it overnight, and that was mostly based on QB play, not building a winning foundation.

Good thing stats matter.

Also. We got a lot of publicity. We're trending on Twitter and the topic of every halftime show. Will help attendance.

Throttled? Depends if you call that bullshit touchdown and giving a #9 SEC team a good scare when we were predicted to get obliterated. We didn't. It was tied. People around the country were talking about us for good reasons. Yards don't matter...what matters is that if the offense executed we would have won. Period. In other news, the fans are so sad they got embarrassed by us. It's hilarious. Georgia fans immaturity is flying out and it's cute. Go back to celebrating your last second garbage TD. A win isn't just a win in the SEC.

Starters were in all game for UGA.

This is a good team. I'm impressed. UGA are classless lil bitches, scoring that last TD

Winning the Sun belt and getting smashed in OOC didn't help.

You know, I know a lot complain that we usually go after the best teams in NCAA for these games, well, just look at the payday we get. Would you rather have one or three?

Thank you.

Thanks for the level headed and well thought out response. I agree.

My family lives 20 minutes from Athens. Could've gone. Just not sure I have the...idk...guts. lol. Going to the NO game though for sure.

I'm an English major and I love athletics. The majority don't, is my point. I can go take a poll of people in a 4000 level English class and maybe you end up with 3 or 4 who follow our football team and 1 or 2 who went to the game. Conversely, I could go to a 4000 level business class and ask...chances are it'll be more 50/50.

I don't want UNT to be Texas. At all. UNT never will be, you can just accept that. We are the liberal art public college in Texas...which means we won't ever have a 100,000 seat stadium. I had a friend who came to UNT wanting to major in art. He came here because football isn't very important and we have the best fine arts school in the state. I could care less if only 1/3rd of the student body attended football games. I just want us to win and to have acceptable attendance. But that subset of students will always be here because the people (a good majority, not all) who major in Music, Fine Arts, Liberal Arts, etc won't support sports. This is just how this school is viewed among the state by young kids. That'll never go away. We should aim to emulate UH or Boise. 30K attendance consistently. Also, Mac won't be going anywhere. He's from the old mentality of loyalty. Like it or not, Mac will be here until he retires. You think other schools weren't throwing money at him at Iowa State? If UNT ever somehow became like UT or even Tech, UNT and Denton both would lose what attracts a good percentage of people to it. UNT and Denton is weird. Not weird in an Austin way, actually weird. I didn't attend A&M or Tech for a reason. (Can't get into UT unless you're top 10 percent.)

Not compared to the rest of the gang of 5.
