Matt from A700

Vote early, get to the Pit! We won't have a confirmed President tomorrow anyways.

Yes. NIU got ranked at just 2-0 after being Notre Dame.

Kyla Deck, a transfer from SFA, scored a team-high 27 points.

Yeah 7:30 is unrealistic. But assuming the TSU game isn't a close one, it should go by pretty fast. I'm a fan of the four 10-minute quarters in the women's game.

The ladies moved their game up that day 30 minutes so we'll have a doubleheader at the Pit on 11/7. Women at 5:30 pm vs. Texas Southern and men at 7:30 against Wayland Baptist.

No need to apologize! We have only seven wins with one game left in the regular season. None of those against UTSA, Rice, ACU, or TAMU Commerce. Those programs used to never be competitive with us.

Just pulling your leg but I agree. Love this time of the year, though this is when my marriage is most at risk. This upcoming week, we'll see (in Denton): Monday, 11/4 - WBB Tuesday, 11/5 - MBB Thursday, 11/7 - WBB Friday, 11/8 - VB Saturday, 11/9 - FB Sunday, 11/11 (allegedly) - MBB

The next installment of the "Battle of the Birds" is just around the corner in two weeks! If you can't take the day off and get down to San Antonio for the game, I definitely encourage you turn the TV on to ESPN2 and help with those ratings! But if you can or are interested in going to the game, please do! First off, if you're local to San Antonio, the alumni chapter is hosting a Thursday night pep rally since the Friday game doesn't really promote tailgating. The pregame event will be on Thursday the 14th from 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. at the Dakota East Side Ice House on 433 Hackberry. If you live in the area, join the SA alumni chapter on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/461338011152328 I bought our first 15 group-rated tickets in Sections 136-137 behind our bench. We've got a block developing near the field in Section 137 for our rowdier crew and a block developing higher up in Section 136. These seats are $31 through our group. For comparison, buying through the UNT site will get you in Sections 138-139 in the corner for $37 after fees. Loophole: if you don't care to sit with other UNT fans, but are interested in getting a few bucks off your tickets by buying through our group, here's the kind of rates for the other sections: 134 (50-yard line, lower rows) - $91 133, 135 (lower rows), 134 (upper rows), 233-235 - $64 133, 135 (upper rows), 232, 236 - $49 237-241 - $31 End zone (101-107, 140-144) - $21 Upper level end zone (201-204, 242-244) - $17 Let me know if you're interested in joining my messaging me here, or emailing me at meangreeninfantry@gmail.com.

Did you seriously create this thread without releasing the rest of the schedule?

But I thought Texas State was supposed to be the G5's representative in the CFP!!!

If we get the continuity of a second Chandler Morris season, we are definitely poised to have an even greater year next year. Assuming a new DC and we just need a serviceable defense with that schedule to be in contention for the conference championship game. We will replace the WRs and RBs that inevitably leave, but it'd be nice to keep Sheffield.

I, too, have feared that we might be the embarrasing anamoly of the NCAA and play only 28, despite all the tweets this offseason about the mid majors having troubles filling their schedule. However, I have logged into my ticket account to try to verify my friend's claim and it is true. I don't have access to the tickets yet but within my order it has 16 home games with November 11 and December 11 listed against undetermined opponents and App State is already included. Will we know those opponents in less than eight days? At this point I wouldn't be surprised if the answer is no. Although with Covid not a factor anymore, I don't know the exact date a schedule is locked up for modifications.

Yeah if we were able to land UNC Asheville I thought that might be a road game scheduled for something like 12/9, right after our game at High Point in the first game of a home-and-home. If 12/11 is correct I'd imagine that might be a local NAIA/D2 team. UNT Dallas maybe?

I've been curious about what runs through the heads of all the high school recruits. Are they thinking "wow our defense sucks" or are they excited about the opportunity to make a positive influence? On the other hand, are the offensive recruits excited to play here and put up big numbers, or are they discouraged by the poor defense that has made the difference in us being 5-3 instead of 7-1?

This will be three straight games on ESPN2 and five straight on linear television. Let's go and take advantage. I believe attendance will be greater for the Army game already across the board: alumni, students, opposing fans. I know we're pissed about the Tulane game but we've got an extra week to get the sour taste out. Going 2-2 on this Memphis/Tulane/Army/UTSA stretch would still be a lot better than last year's 0for on the Tulane/Memphis/UTSA/SMU gauntlet.

And assuming Odom would be the interim, I would hope that would help prevent a max exodus of defensive commitments.

Tulane is better than Memphis, obviously the overall record is benefitting Memphis, and they've got three easy opponents before they square off with Tulane at the end of the season.

HIT 7

Lol I'm still holding on hope for UNC Asheville (the opponent App State lost allowing us to get the Mountaineers on our schedule). Both of those dates would work, though 11/11 would just force them to extend a road trip to Ohio on 11/9. That game on 12/11 in the middle of exam week would likely be a local NAIA/D2 team which at this point I'm fine with. 16 home games is one more than last year. And we had two non D-I opponents last season so that would also be progress.

Only 2 at this point. We have 28 total. Another fellow season ticket holder who somehow already has their tickets says the missing games are on 11/11 and 12/11 against opponents TBD. Technically UNC Asheville could work on both of those dates, the opponent who App State lost their game with.

I hope the sales and marketing team has been working hard behind the scenes for when the games are announced... Everything so far is building towards a drop from our historic attendance numbers last year.

Per another season ticket holder the last two home dates are 11/11 at 7pm and 12/11 at a time TBD. Opponents still unknown.

Ah that makes sense, thanks. Makes you think though if either Army or Navy makes the CFP if players would hold out of the meaningless game on the 14th. Can you serve in the academy and choose to do that? Lol.

Gave up a goal with 13 minutes left to tie with Charlote, 1-1 last night, who was 2-7-6 coming into the game. John Hedlund was absent. Team drops to 0-3-2 since winning the program's 400th game.

And interesting situation developing: if Army and Navy make the CCG, whoever wants the CFP spot is going to have to beat the other two times in back-to-back weeks.
