  • Most of Mason Fine's hometown turned out again, sitting in section 110. Great fans, enthusiastic. Engaged. Many were wearing shirts/hoodies with UNT spelled in Cherokee. 
  • Like Fine's crew, the Flusche's fraternity always inspires. We need to recruit more kids with large families and built in fan bases!
  • I enjoyed the Green Brigade's halftime show more than most. The marching was more linear, easier on my eyes and understandable to my obsessive compulsive brain.
  • This was the first time I would accuse the attendance as listed to the low side of reality. Good crowd that stayed into it through the third quarter. May have been a little light for Homecoming but it I can't remember a HC this late in the season before. Makes me think that we can have a good shot at decent late season attendance as this team gets better. Best tailgating crowd of the season.
  • Appreciated the good La Tech crowd. Those with whom I spoke were nice. I thought it was the biggest opposing crowd this year, and maybe since Apogee's first game.
  • The weather. November.
  • I appreciate Homecoming more when I spend some time with those actually coming home. Different perspective on the changes on campus, the game day environment, etc.
  • The Alumni Pavilion was a great place to hang out before the game (it was free to everyone yesterday for Homecoming). Hope we maximized efforts to reach these alumni not already members of the association).
  • One football note: That was the best QB we have played all year. We didn't give him much reason to panic, but that guys footwork was phenomenal. Reminded me of Tom Brady. Completely poised.

I think it was also the best offense we've seen this year.  Their offensive line was impressive.

Always appreciate your positivity, Scott. We've been around a long time since our kids were little. You're a great fan.

That Higgins guy is a stud. How was this dude (a senior) not starting at Arkansas Week 1? And to a freshman? Now he's 3rd in the nation at 364 passing YPG.

One positive (football-focused) is that we did hold the Bulldogs to only 255 yards passing, over 100 under their season average. No matter how hard it was to get off the field on third down.

Higgins was not suspended, but did not play against Arkansas, for a DWI arrest in early August. OL was stout, no denying. We got no pressure on Higgins and the secondary was depleted intra-game. Tough one pal.

Love La Tech's program and band.  They are the class of the west and we just need to keep building.  I feel we played them pretty tough but we're outgunned.  It's a great benchmark program I've been following for years when living out west.  Saw them a lot in Hawaii always solid.  Appreciated the crowd and spirit they brought to Apogee.
