such a great stadium, atmosphere tonight

I couldn't help but wonder -- when we can provide a consistent winning product how neat it will be.

This stadium is awesome. Great cool weather tonight and great student turnout for a 204 (now 2-5 team). Outstanding tailgating.

So many of the pieces are in place. If we could just have some consistency. It's going to happen it's just a matter of when. GMG

one last thing -- great job by the fans tonight -- loud even after disappointing conversions time after time. Very supportive and engaged fans tonight albeit in a losing cause...

And don't forget,...the Great Pumpkin arrives very soon too. What fun we're gonna have then.

Did anyone notice the ad on the jumbotron for Mean Gren Madness basketball? Mean Gren...really?

NT91 · October 19, 2014

It was the lowest student turnout this year.

Ya, I went down to the section next to you for a bit while my sons were on the sidelines and yes, you guys were loud. The section I was in was a graveyard.

Can't wait until rice. How many are going? Do you think the school will provided a bus service?

Great weather, tailgating, and fan noise. The fact that I had a great time shows just how numb I've become to bad football.

Agreed!!

Did anyone catch the Dan Mullen interview last weekend? Very appropriate for UNT. Everyone at Miss. St. was saying they needed to win to get fans to the game, but he said it was the opposite. He held the theory that if the fans would come and support the team, give home field advantage, etc., that the wins would come. Could be coincidence, but he seems prophetic.

greenit · October 19, 2014

Agreed. The reason you go to the game needs to be mostly about the atmosphere and the good time that you have when going, because that is what you have control over. Wins and losses will come and go. Tailgating is getting better with each passing game. If I were the AD, I would look at things I could do to improve the pre/post game experience.

UNT 90 Grad · October 19, 2014

Any insight into the source of the drone hovering around at the beginning of the 3rd? Rice spy tactic?

oldguystudent · October 19, 2014

Yesterday was one of my rare kitchen pass game days. The tailgating keeps getting better. The integration with downtown for post game opportunities that don't involve underage kids slamming shots from plastic well bottles is a huge improvement.

I think I avoided catching any viral infections from the royal inn.

A great afternoon, a great evening, safe if a little sketchy accommodations. 10/10 would buy again.

I couldn't make it to the game and gave my section 105 tickets to a single Mom who is an alum and her preteen son. She hadn't been to a game at Apogee yet and her son had never been to any college game before. The son followed SMU because his aunt works there. After the game, he's a Mean Green fan and Mom's school spirit has returned. This morning at church I was asking them about the game and they were thrilled. I told her I wish we'd won to which she said yes, but the atmosphere was so great they loved the experience.

Yes, we gained fans in a loss.

By the way, she didn't think McNulty was why we lost. She said Creekview High School could move the ball on our defense.

NT93 · October 20, 2014

But could RL Turner???

DeepGreen · October 20, 2014

Doesn't say much for SMU's defense. Is there a class 2A team that SMU could play?

The athletic department mounts a camera on it and flies it around. Basically if it captures any cool shots those could be used in highlight packages, Beyond the Green, etc. video projects.
