Craphole

UNT90 · November 23, 2014

Well, this week is upon us. The good news is they are terrible, so there will be far less of their terribly insecure fans coming in here and beating us down with their idiocy. We are also bad, so maybe those of you that went to their crappy Internet site (which, no doubt, is rented from the City of San Antonio) before last year's game will be smarter this year.

Craphole does serve one purpose. It shows how important an effective QB is to a football team. They returned everyone but QB. Soza was a great player. They didnt have a replacement and they now suck. We can relate.

I delight in how much suck they will throw out there next year.

Maybe they really are the next USF...

Had 2 defensive starters ejected during WKU. I wonder what their status will be for this game

With what I've seen of their team culture, I'd suspect they get promoted to team captain.

Depending on when it happened, wouldn't this be a half or full game suspension that is predetermined by the ncaa?

One was for spearing , so he's out for at least a half. The other apparently made contact with an official. Not sure how that one will play out

If you're a star player at a Criminal 5 school, like Florida State, nothing.

Harry · November 23, 2014

Contact with an official is very serious. I'd imagine Coker will have to deal with that severely.

"Craphole" is a tired lazy bit

In a down season for both schools a win to close out the year would be a boost for the offseason and the head to head recruiting battles to come in December on through February and then to the spring evaluation period for the class of 2016. This game is still very important even though the postseason is not on the line for either school.

Withers940 · November 24, 2014

The one I saw was in the second half where the safety (I think #6) led with his head and then got ejected

"Craphole" is a tired lazy bit

I'm in a tired and lazy mood.

Just calling them what they are. When they build something or do something to deserve the position they were GIVEN, maybe I'll call them something different.

Till then, they are just a craphole.

We open as a 6 point underdog

VideoEagle · November 24, 2014

Who's going? My wife and I will be there as we both have lots of family in San Antonio and go for Thansgiving anyway.

I do think the whole "craphole" thing because they didn't earn it is old. If it's because they are a conference game, then fine. No they didn't earn it. But things change and stamping you foot and screaming no won't stop that. Both UTSA and Texas State are full members of FSB now. Five years ago, who'd have thought Miss State, Baylor and TCU would all be top seven teams at the same time? Every team that have beaten UTSA this year is counting an FBS win. The CFP committee counts them as an FBS team as does the NCAA and the sports press.

Let's just beat them and end the season on a short winning streak.

It only took UNT 100 years to crawl into a conference such as CUSA. It took utsa 3 years bc of nothing they offer as an academic institution or athletic program. They had what UNT wanted forever handed to them bc TV market/location. That is the only reason or they would be 2012 Idaho OR begging to get into the sun belt. So, yeah, it was given to them. They will be beyond terrible next year...so that is promising.

Dude, don't keep trying to fight the Civil War. I agree UTSA didn't deserve what they have been handed, but the rest of the world except a few posters here have moved on to accept the reality that UTSA is a member of CUSA.

I was just reiterating their true irrelevance.

oldguystudent · November 24, 2014

Craphole just seems so uninspired to me. I've always been more partial to the nUTSAck moniker. Or, maybe brainstorming a bit here:

UTSucksAss

University of Temporary Stadium Arrangments

The team that crawled out of the riverwalk

CoyoteBait

KFC's division of culinary advancement

ACME Inc. Test Dummies

The not quite thuggish enough for the Real U. players

These aren't the best I can come up with, given enough time. We can do better than Craphole.

UNT90 · November 24, 2014

Shocks me how many in this fan base are just fine with a university not earning their way, especially since we were told by CUSA that we needed a stadium to gain entry back in the early 2000s.

I guess I really shouldn't be shocked. This is the same fan base that accepts losing, terrible football scheduling, multiple bad coaching hires, and the deconstruction of a once proud basketball program with little more than a whimper.

There is a reason we have been terrible at all things athletics for years.

We are really, deep down, just fine with that..

oldguystudent · November 24, 2014

I gonna go with the first time UNT tried to enter CUSA, it was a significantly better conference than it is today, and that the University of Terrible Sexual Ailments wouldn't have stood a chance for admission. There are really only five conferences now. The MAC, MWC, and AAC would be right out for any upstart program in Texas. This leaves the SunBelt (where Larry totally doesn't do lines of Coker and crew should be) and a very watered down and very thoughtlessly, hastily reloaded CUSA. The old North Texas would've stood a pretty good chance at admission to CUSA as it stands today.

Wait, are they UTSA or USTA? There seems to be some confusion:

What are we supposed to do about it? I can be unhappy and it means nothing. I largely ignore them, but you are the one that is obsessed with them and keep bringing them up. It almost seems like you want a rivalry with them or something.

Nope. Part of a rivalry is respecting, yet hating, the opponent.

I feel neither for Craphole. I hope they are woefully unsuccessful simply because they haven't suffered to earn a damn thing.

Hopefully they are about to enter a 10 year period of suffering. Then maybe they will have a slight insight into the life of a UNT fan.

Build something, do something, earn something. Craphole hasn't. ULL deserved the position GIVEN to Craphole in CUSA.

A microcosm of everything wrong with college football today.

Then why do you keep bringing them up?

MeanGreenTexan · November 24, 2014

Keep stoking the 'rivalry' fire UNT90:

Notice how few threads we've seen this season from the UTSA trolls? Most of them are either originating from, or being stoked by you and your rival-like nickname for them.

Ignore them, and let the fire die my friend.

I think Louisiana Tech deserves much more venom.

Cerebus · November 24, 2014

UNT90 is obviously in the "UTSA is a great rival for NT" camp. His constant trolling on the subject shows exactly how badly he wants this to happen. Of course, he'll just vehemently deny this, and claim he just wants them to be forgotten, but if he really wanted that he would stop posting about them constantly.
