Lolo Jones' comment rankles some U.S. bobsledders http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/olympics/2013/06/17/lolo-jones-comment-rankles-some-bobsledders/2432985/

I had contacted the owners of this site as I discovered this a few years ago. I told him the specific players in that list that didn't go to NT, but rather went to UT. They responded they'd update it accordingly. Glad to see they kept their word...

It's Cristobal's fourth stint at Miami: He played for two national-championship teams there between 1988 and 1992, was a graduate assistant from 1998 through 2000 and then returned as an assistant coach from 2004 through 2006.

LSU's Zach Mettenberger sacked by North Texas' Hilbert Jackson

Sorry, try this one: http://home.roadrunner.com/~jperg2tami/lgnt/index.html

For the our OOC schedules from 2013-2019 that I have been able to locate/confirm thus far (per various sources) check out the following: http://home.roadrunner.com/~jperg2tami/lgnt/index.html <-- review the "Future Schedules" tab

I actually like the jersey, but the helmet lacks something to be desired.

How accurate is this "projected" schedule now that some scheduling items are clearer... (i.e. it's now Dec and not May)?

Yeah, after taking his team to a bowl game a few years back, he was rumored to be in the running for the HC position at Rutgers at turned it down.

12/22: R+L Carriers New Orleans Bowl --> East Carolina / Louisiana Lafayette (6-2/8-4) 12/26: Little Ceasars Pizza Bowl --> Western Kentucky (4-4/7-5) / Central Michigan 12/28: AdvoCare V100 Independence Bowl --> Louisiana Monroe (6-2/8-4) / Ohio 1/6: GoDaddy.com Bowl --> Kent State / Arkansas State (7-1/9-3) NOT BOWLING: Middle Tennessee (6-2/8-4) Interesting read as to the situation as to why MTSU is not bowling: http://middletennessee.rivals.com/showmsg.asp?fid=2117&tid=160551823&mid=160551823&sid=1142&style=2 For the life of me I can't understand why MTSU is staying home this bowl season, and WKY is bowling with a worse conference record. If the circumstances/situation (noted in the link above) are true then it is a sad day... and just one more reason it's good to be NT and heading to CUSA in 2013. GMG!!!

According to this article (source: http://www.sunbeltsports.org/Sports/MensSports/Football/Article/tabid/740/Article/19111/Sun-Belt-Conference-Reprimands-Instant-Replay-Officials.aspx) "...during the South Alabama at North Texas football game on Saturday, November 10 as USA intercepted a pass and the ensuing return resulted in a fumble by the returner at the NT goal line. The ruling on the field was that the ball was fumbled and hit the end zone pylon – resulting in a touchback. The play was reviewed by the instant replay official and the call on the field was confirmed. Video evidence later showed that the USA player fumbled the ball and the ball proceeded to go out of bounds – short of the goal line. The ball should have been spotted at the one yard line with a first and goal for South Alabama. The two instant replay officials will be placed on probation and will be removed from consideration to work a postseason bowl game."

If you would have said that by WK 10 there would be three, possibly four (if we lose to ASU this weekend) Sun Belt teams with six wins, I would have called, "Bull Sh!t" But man, I can't believe what I'm seeing this year from some of these teams... the Sun Belt has gotten stronger. ULM (6-2), MTSU (6-3), WKY (6-3)... and knocking on the door is ASU (5-3)

Same here...

Found this article on the BleacherReport, and gave it a read through. The video is awesome... I think we need to have something of this quality to get the fans pumped up before the game! http://bleacherrepor...ow-intro-videos

Sloppy wet game thus far... through 10 minutes, there are 4 turnovers (2 per side) The game has also been chippy thus far...

Nice...

College Inn was the best... had a pool, and felt like an apartment without feeling like a dorm... want fresh air, just open the door.

Oh man, this could be an even worse a$$ kicking in the making now. http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/blog/eye-on-college-football/20248494/now-florida-atlantic-is-talking-smack-to-alabama
