I love it.  They don't even need to wear helmets to their practice next week.  Not a mention of the battle they are in for.

Can't do it.  If they win, they will say they are the superior school.  If they lose, they will say the team didn't perform or the coaches didn't do their jobs.

Just win.

Not really looking past us.  They even mention in this thread that the game against UNT could be tough as well.  Just a thread brought up because of last night's Arky State performance against Nebraska.

Honestly, SMU is a huge game for us and for them.. they have a tough conference slate and haven't been to a bowl...

A win for us has I think gives the fan base a big breath of fresh air and should lead to hopefully more fans for UAB. 

I don't wanna say it's a must win, but we do need a W and I think it just helps us even more in recruiting as well.

All I want to know, will SMU have the all white uniforms on next week?

So NT can have the green helmet green tops.

Let's be honest...they're all white every week

Honestly, who cares what their tiny fan base says online? I guarantee their players and coaches aren't blowing off their first real game. (SFA wasn't a real challenge for them just like Lamar wasn't for us.)

"Their running back, Jeffery Wilson, ran for 172 yards and 3 td's and played only 2 quarters. He is the 11th rusher for all of FBS. UNT is the #5 offense in FBS after week 1. There is a lot of motivation for them to show up this week."

I don't know whether or not they are looking past us, but...

...after Arky State-Nebraska, they better damn well realize that the transfer the Wolfpack (or Red Wolves or whatever Wolf name they call themselves because we can't say Indians anymore) got from OU can f*cking put the ball where it needs to be...consistently.  And, they better put in some extra film time trying to figure him out.

They've already got game film on (and, game experience against) Mason Fine.  There's no secret to him.   Arky State and their  QB are new to them.  If they feel like they got a handle on what Fine and our OC are doing, of course they're going to cheat ahead.

Since Hansen started 10 games last year I'd be really surprised if they didn't look at film over the summer, most coaches are easily able to get game film of opponents in advance through the buddy network.

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      We do alright with the North Texas chant sometimes, we just need to make it a staple and I think people will do it.

      State fans showed up because they rightfully expected to win in this game. If the AD thinks they're going to depend on people to show up just cause NT has a team there, they are dead wrong. There are a few, but there are many many more who will not show up when they don't think their team will win. There are too many obligations and opportunities to devote precious time and money watching a team lose.

      After Morris and Sheffield transferred, how many here were actually expecting to win? Many of us were just hoping TXST didn't handle us like they did UTSA this year or Rice in last year's First Responder Bowl. Sure, it's the head coach's job to have his team ready to play and in position to win regardless of the adversity faced, but it's still incredible the performance Mestemaker had. Tonight was better than any game C. Morris has had since Memphis. Coastal Carolina lost their starting QB to the portal and got dog walked in their bowl game against UTSA in their own building. Yes, the loss increases our bowl futility streak to an active high, and it sucks to lose to an intrastate program in an inferior conference, but that shouldn't take away from Drew's game. The biggest disappointment to me was how badly we were outnumbered by TXST fans. We went from packing the lower level of the Cotton Bowl to being matched ON OUR OWN SIDE. Like our team, our fans also struggle to wear green. However, there should be optimism surrounding next season. Eric made a poor hire with his first DC obviously, but made the tough (but right) call in getting rid of him. Next year's presumed starter will be in his last year of eligibility, so no losing another 4000 yard passed before the bowl game. If we struggle to another 6/7-win season and bowl loss with next year's schedule, I think Eric's seat should be pretty hot again.

      So a lot of you think that NT is not deserving of your valuable fandom. I actually was proud of the team that continue to battle with a completely revamped lineup including a completely untested QB. Yeah and spare me the low expectations accusations that are usually leveled at anyone that dares to not rave and rant about a loss.
