This thread makes it very clear that players notice when they’re playing in front of small crowds, and the first reactions here are to blame the player, blame the lack of success, etc. I don’t know why that’s the reaction instead of pure embarrassment/disappointment.

Yep. You got one of them.

Queue all the excuses for poor attendance…

I always love the All Whites on the road, but this combo is cool too!

Wow! Good for those dudes.

Truth hurts sometimes

The answers you seek are right there on the depth chart, young grasshopper

Did Texas-Texas A&M somehow become a non-rivalry because they weren't playing each other in football the last however many years?

Rivalries are bad for college football and all…

UNT 70 USA 63

It’s also not like the Big XII without Texas and Oklahoma is some amazing football conference.

SMU? That’s the answer, isn’t it?

The funny thing in all of this is that after HCU next week, it’s probably going to be November before SMU wins again.

I’m glad they’re beating SMU as much as the next guy, but it’s not like Nevada’s QB’s style of play fits the Air Raid. I wouldn’t tab him “the one that got away.”

I think the reality is that outside of the Top 25-30 programs in the country it’s hard enough to have a proven QB1, much less a proven QB2.

SMU fans talking like conference realignment experts still gives me a little chuckle. SMU is going to be on the outside looking in when the ACC finally blows up just like most of the country.

UConn to the Big XII is about basketball, not football

lol 👍

Man, former coaches and former players are so popular on this board. Weird.

Threads like these always make me wonder what you guys expect from the AD. Anything they share is going to be positive at this point. It's all going to be "coach speak." Here's a quick summary of what you would get from the AD. 1- Offense has spent a year learning and will be ready to go 2- Defense has gotten better and has one whole year learning the 3-3-5 3- Special teams has some new faces, but is better than a year ago 4- We are excited about what the new players to the program are bringing to the field and expect them to contribute There's your camp update.

Lord, help us if our coaches are looking for our approval...

2 thoughts: 1- Don’t players vote on the captains? If so, he must be making a good impression. 2- I feel like this is going to be more and more common in the “new CFB” world.

Just FYI, as someone who grew up in the Lubbock area, there’s not really a bad seat in the house. It’s honestly a really fun place to see a game. Definitely get there early and take in their pregame. It’s a good show. Also, their fans are typically very hospitable as long as you’re not a Longhorn or Aggie. Edit to add: Be ready to dodge a few tortillas flying through the air.

Why do we care about CUSA coaches on the hot seat?

While waiting for those teams to end up on the home schedule, schools like USF are pulling 36k for Florida A&M, 29k for Rice, 37k for FAU, 31k for Temple, etc. ECU is pulling 38k for Marshall, 41k for Gardner-Webb, 33k for SMU, 40k for Charlotte, etc.
