If invited to " First Responders" tickets may become a hot item. That stadium is listed at 32000 capacity....... Not sure when it moves back to Cotton Bowl at Fair Park if attendance improves cause of private management. Unless they hire a private security firm to help a understaffed Police Department.

Hoping NT got the better end of that deal!

I like diving eagle. Battle Flag covers all the court and I like to see wood. Just don't think "light the tower" would do to much unless seated right in front of it.

They sound eerily familiar to post in GMG.....its summer and anticipation is building.

I've followed NT football along time. The program is really divided by our little stint in 1AA. Before that period we were a commuter school (with an occasional outstanding football or basketball team), and after that period I feel we've moved on from being a commuter school, Thanks UTA. The apathy toward football since our return from Dll is slowly disappearing...it takes for ever and a day to build a fan base. But "Winning" does just that. When DD won all those conference championships it was a shame the AD and administration were not in place to push the programs to the next level. Looking at what has been accomplished in the last 3 years and it seems we now have the AD and administration to move these athletic programs to the next level. Unfortunately, at the present, our affiliation with CUSA is not going to get us there. There needs to be a complete overhaul of the current CUSA administration or North Texas bales to another conference. I still feel that the potential of NT is has never been found but with the right AD and University Administration...well..maybe we got them in place now. Just my opinion..

It was on GMG at the end of FB season last year...wasnt CUSA West the next to the lowest rated conference with the east right above??? And all those Apogee sellouts too! I guess if we want to remain in mediocrity....hey we're here!

Well..for me it's easy, SMU and Houston. I would like to win them all but if you've been reading all the post on GMG about the AAC and MWC on here then beating the two Texas AAC teams would be huge. Especially here in Texas.

I'd be a little worried too. Especially if Temple bolts.... but they may wait till the next batch of checks are distributed.

SMU and Houston but I want to win all three.

That beat down by NT started their fall. They never recovered from that loss mentally.

If there is an opening in MWC, does Neal Smatresk still have points of contact since he came from UNLV? That might influence any invitation into that conference.

Do we travel well now. Went to a couple away games last year......if that was traveling well then we have a difference in opinion as to what traveling well means.

Well I got my bat out and will begin beating this horse again. Some want to stay, CUSA, some want to go. I say if you don't dream to play with the big boys you ain't never going to get there.

This is several years old.

Private vs Public universities ( more or less).....and SMU was afraid to face Hayden Fry.

Pressure continues to build for NT offense. I would feel so much better if it all wasn't on one players shoulders. Everyone will target MF.

It's great NT flipped a potential great FB player. December can't come soon enough to see who signs.

I don't bet since I'm retired and on fixed income and my fun money get spent on other things..ie NT season tickets. But I hope all 60000 people show up cause some may get there panties tied in a knot if the attendance is low.

Why...people get so twisted up....LOL!

Hmm...you got me there. Now let's see how many show up. What are the ticket prices...

To those who think they're going to sell 40000 + thousand hockey tickets (I'll even lower the attendance) for a out door game on or around the first of the year.....I've been to several Stars games. Even when they are doing good there are still empty seats. And at the climax of the college football season hockey gonna fill (even halfway) the Cotton Bowl. Man......I want some of what your drinking or smoking!

So let me get this straight....move First Responders Bowl to Ford Stadium so 70 to 90 thousand hockey fans can watch the Dallas Stars play out door hockey on or around January 1st...... That's BS! They might put several thousand in the stands but a Bowl Game during Bowl season could put many more in the seats with the right teams. There's more to it than what's been printed.

Be sure to wear boots......ya know walking thru all the human excrement.
