I've been playing the ESPN College Pick'em game for the last several years.  Probably some of you have too.  You pick the winner out of a 10 game lineup and then rank them for points based on the confidence of your pick.  The game you are most confident about you make your 10 point game, the least confident is your 1 point game, etc.  In all the years they have never had a North Texas game in the line up until NOW.  We finally made the big time...hahahaha.  Anyway, thought it was cool to be able to pick my Mean Green over FAU.  I'm in the minority BTW, with a significant majority picking FAU (boo).  Go Mean Green.

The question is.....how many points did you assign?

Yep.  Considering there are only 16 games being played this weekend, and considering ours is a conference championship game, I don't think it's any indication that we've soared up the credibility ranks.

      Back to the Frisco Bowl Again🤮🤮

      +1. Or when we actually start winning bowl games. Some of y'all would be loving the Frisco bowl if we were winning big and attendance was filling it up. There's a bit of a chicken-egg argument here when it comes to winning and attendance. Just f'n go. I'm giving you 'til the count of 10 to get y'r ugly, yellow, no-good keester to the games.

      UNT Student-Athletes Boast Increased GSR Rate

      DENTON, Texas – Mean Green student-athletes recorded their ninth consecutive year with a Graduation Success Rate (GSR) above 82 or better with an 84 for the 2016-17 cohort, the NCAA announced Wednesday. Out of UNT’s 12 sport programs, 10 recorded impressive rates above 82. Seven programs improved or maintained their scores from the previous year including football, women’s basketball, soccer, softball, women’s tennis, women’s track and field/cross country along with swim and dive. Women’s basketball tied the program record with a 95. Additionally, football set a new program milestone with an 87. Women’s tennis maintained a perfect 100 for a record ninth year in a row. From the time GSR data collection began with the 1995-98 cohort, UNT has improved from a score of 59 to 84 (25-point increase). The GSR was developed by the NCAA as part of its academic reform initiative to more accurately measure the academic success of Division I student-athletes by better accounting for the many different academic paths followed by today's college students. The NCAA also released the most recent federal graduation rate data in conjunction with the GSR information. The GSR holds institutions accountable for transfer students, whereas the federal graduation rate does not. The GSR also accounts for mid-year enrollees. The NCAA calculates the federal graduation rate for student-athletes because it is the only rate by which to compare student-athletes to the general student body.

      Can Indiana do it?

      They are entering their biggest test, @ #2 OSU this week. I don't know the backstory on Cignetti, but I love the idea of seeing Indiana compete in the CFP semis. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/42487935/curt-cignetti-google-indiana-hoosiers-college-football-playoff

      For selfish reasons, I’d love the Frisco Bowl. I live just a stones throw away from there.
