I know I was a toddler when we whipped them in 1947. Made me so excited I was incontinent!

A win on Saturday could elicit the same reaction.

Annual Top25 team. 3 national championship. 3 Heismans. 6 or 7 SEC championships. Current team...physical D. Improving O.

Great overall school from an academic standpoint. 

UNT will have its hands full come Saturday. Glory to the Green.

Untrue....so untrue.....we are just very drunk by the third quarter.   See, for most of our history, our football team was being bombed on the field, but that was ok, since we were all bombed in the stands.

Seriously, the end of third quarter swaying goes back a while.   Not sure who came up with it first really. This one goes back probably to the early 1920's but the people at aTm might have us beat with it.

You really will piss us off if you say we ripped off the aTm types.  Those are fighting words, actually.

They still allow people to leave at the half and rush over to the bars to pound a couple and return for second half?

It's funny how some of the younger folk don't realize that Floroda was the Kansas of the SEC for a verrrry long time.

Remind me, when did it turn and who finally turned it? Was it the university finally making a commitment? 

Inquiring minds...

They almost lost to FAU last year, and they lost to FCS GA Southern two years before that. Oh, and Dan will probably be there pulling for them on Saturday while we simultaneously shower him with free cash. That somehow sounds treasonous.

It started back in the 80s I think. Though you won't see those conference championships in the record books because the coach (Pat Hill?) didn't follow all of the NCAA rules.

The first Heisman winner in school history returned to be 'The Head Ball Coach' and began winning in earnest. While there in the 90s they won the first national championship and he coached the second Heisman winner, Danny Wuerful.

My son and daughter got their undergraduate degrees there as did their spouses. I would give pretty much anything for a Mean Green victory.

      Honest tactical question here…

      I thought it worked to an extent but really stood out against Tech, Tulane, and Army. I figured in our to be army we would simply need to eat up more clock than them. We decided to do the opposite.

      Memphis hanging with UConn. 32-32 with four minutes left in the first half. (as I post this)

      Honest tactical question here…

      Yall can lay the blame of this all at the feet of the Pirate. Leach having some success at Texas Tech, at a time when A&M fell apart and Baylor was non-competitive, while nobody else but Texas was a Big 12 school, led to him getting some kind of legendary status. And his influence on TX HS football went off the charts, because it was “more fun for the kids”…and it basically destroyed the development of linemen on both sides of the ball and made defense a part of the game that just needs a stop or two per half. Hell, Art Briles said that out loud. Just get a stop or two. So now, we get the luxury of seeing a short yardage situation have the QB in shotgun, with a running back behind him, all about 4-5 yards behind the line of scrimmage, trying to get a yard. And then the coaches look exasperated when we don’t pick up the first down/TD, as we get tackled behind the line of scrimmage.

      WBB at Houston (11/24/24)

      I don't hate baseball, but what I don't like is people who seem to want something for nothing . A dream with out a plan is still just a dream and far I have seen no plan to fund a venue. I went to a health care seminar years ago where a woman who's husband was terminally ill. About 70% of a dying patients hospital bill is generated in the last 24 hours trying to keep them alive. She said that she didn't care what it cost as long as she didn't have to pay for it. Based upon lack of football and basketball support at UNT why would you think that baseball " would lure fans in the spring, spur donations, as well as tickets and and merchandise. "However in the future, which is now, universities will be forced to look at at profit and loss is the athletic department just like the rest of the universities departments. My definition is revenues less expenses equals profit or loss.Based upon your definition of revenue sports swimming would fall into that category if we charged dollar to attend a meet, passed around a collection plate, and sold swim caps. In summary UNT has only so many beans in the pot and to waste them on a very expense non revenue sport seems ridiculous.
