If you live in DFW, why are you not at the game? There are a ton of games on Halloween across the country, no excuse.

So I should have my children miss Trick or Treating to go to an empty stadium with no Halloween events to watch another potential blowout while the AD passes the buck and says we the fans suck for not showing up to watch his horrid product? It's not an excuse. It's a choice.

The only thing I'll miss is the banner. I'd enjoy that.

There will be Halloween events. The team has improved, they performed admirably against Marshall considering the situation. It is an excuse. If you're on this forum, you care...so go support the team you care about.

No parent with kids who want to go trick-or-treating is going to make them miss that for 0-7 UNT vs 1-6 UTSA. Get real.

Kids want to trick or treat. If you have them then you go with them. Period. There is no reason why this couldn't have been an afternoon game and therefore leaving plenty of time to get home w/ the little ghosts and goblins. Just another example of UNT getting it wrong!

Just made the call.  4 kids and Halloween trumps bad game day promos and RV.  Sorry UNT. Let me know when you get serious about D1A.

Ryan, I respect your dedication, but I believe that you are 100% wrong in confronting fans that choose family obligations over a all too often made scheduling error by an incredibly oblivious athletic department. The game is scheduled Halloween Night for what, some non-existent television exposure?

It is not the customers that suck, it is the horrendous scheduling of the event that sucks.

Personally, I would love to be at the game, but I am not going to do that to my children.

      I agree. Injuries are bound to happen. They almost did tonight. They did last season. Utah State played without a starter tonight and last night due to food poisoning. You never know. We need more than 8 guys prepared to play effectively.

      Utah State (11/29/24)

      Giving a few guys some rest and clearing the bench are two different things. We were up 17 against UNI with a couple minutes left in the first half and again early in the second half. Those are prime opportunities to sub in your 9th and 10th guys and give a couple of your main rotation guys a few minutes of rest. We actually had a double digit lead most of the second half against UNI. It was never really threatened. Edit to add it's kind of funny to suggest we were never in a position to clear the bench against UNI yet Utah State played 11 guys against us and 10 against St Bonaventure. Some get on for less than 10 minutes but I promise you a starter gets needed rest for those few minutes they get to sit. Maybe we should do as the top 30 team does?

      Utah State (11/29/24)

      the UNI game was a 9 point game with 3:30 to play. 57-48. we shut them out from there to push it to 20, but at no point short of the last minute or so was it even possible to clear the bench. everybody needs stop over-analyzing tonight's loss. it was a toss up...they made a few more plays than we did. play the game ten times and it's 5/5 with a top 30 team that might sneak into the top 25 by Christmas.

      Utah State (11/29/24)

      Hard to blame the refs when we forced 16 turnovers and took 15 more shots. Just couldn't hit our shots. Sometimes you're cold. I'm going to agree with @UNTLiferwho said we should have played bench guys against UNI considering it was a blowout. Have to give your starters rest when you can, especially on the first of a back-to-back.

      oh no...a downvote. articulate a half-decent opinion or go the eff away. I swear actually having a winning program has made this board worse.
