I'm still pissed off at Dodge not going for the field goal just before halftime of that Ohio game in a monsoon.  Kicker was having a pretty good night,  but not getting any points put us into overtime, when we lost.  Never been so rained on.

Agreed. I bet most fans of the sport would too. Something fun about football in the snow that isn't present for snow in heavy rainfall.

That was the worst part of that first home game against WKU.   It just kept raining hovering around 33 degrees.  We were sopping wet in near freezing temperatures praying it would change over to snow.  It never did.  It felt like we were watching a scrimmage because the band looked to outnumber the fans.

That's how it will be today.

8k in the stadium.

People will watch it on ESPN 3 and stay home.

look at what is coming on the radar.

Any way y'all think this game will get moved to a later date?

There was so much rain that day.  Afraid today might be like that

it would be nice to move the game but they won't.

USM has to depart soon.

There is a massive cell coming, but nothing behind it. I hope it gets through and we stay dry.

it is sunny in denton, temp 74 degrees, the birds are singing and i see rainbows and unicorns.   Everyone come to the game today.

If UTEP had 15k in the stands last week we should have at least 20k.

Looking bad for kickoff but hopefully this pushes past after about a quarter.  

My daughter, 14, made clear on Thursday that rain wasn’t going to stop her from coming.  So I guess I’ll be there to.  🙂

• We have sat through a lot of bad weather games - including the Florida State "snow game" - to watch North Texas football but we were a LOT younger in those days.    If we did not have Club level seats we would not be coming to Denton today so I won't be critical of anyone who stays home to watch it on ESPN3.   If you do choose to attend be extra loud because we will have to make up for those who choose to stay dry.

Instability area is maturing into a small squall line.  Good news, because there will be improving conditions after it moves on through in the next 2-3 hours.

[southsideguy]

Thinking about going to the game today?   Ask yourself was it better to watch awful UNT teams in good weather or is better to watch a good UNT team in bad weather?  

 

[oldguystudent]

Well, I bet parking will be much easier today if nothing else.  Hope I can get up 35 without incident.  There seems to be an accident on that stretch every time I drive it regardless of weather. Hope to leave in about an hour. 

[southsideguy]

There is always a wreck on i-35 in Denton.  Then the other side slows down to look.

[NT91]

I hope our running game is good today.

no long passing

I get that. However I don't think rain is a competitive disadvantage for UNT, as USM needs to pass too, they haven't really shown a capacity to run this season.

Weather is pretty clear now.  No rain.  No poncho needed for now. Get your asses out here.

Going to be a quiet game. Good napping weather at the stadium and don’t have to worry about noise waking you up!
