A pretty good OU team comes to Denton.  Hopefully we'll be ready.

If we can start like we did on Monday and keep it up, we should win.

If we start like we have most of the time, it’ll be a rough one to watch.

PACK THE PIT!

[Green Lantern]

Big opportunity for Grant to have a statement win. 

[Andrew]

The question is will there be more green or red in the stands?

[drex]

Which program has the tradition?  I think I know the answer as to the dominate color Thursday night.

Nahh there will be more green, but not by a lot. 

I remember in 2015 when we hosted Creighton, and they had about half the crowd blue lol

[Mean Green Matt]

It will easily be 70/30 green if not more.

I hope so, but it’s Devions coming home party and they are hoping for a lot of locals to show up to support him. I’m torn, but I bled green. He can drop 40 and we can win by one... haha

If ever there was a time to wear green, it's Thursday night. 

If, for some reason you don't have a GREEN shirt to wear, go buy one and wear it.  I promise you our friends from across the Red River will be in their school colors. 

ANY SHADE OF GREEN IS GREEN.

GO MEAN GREEN

Heard from the ticket office people that they have sold over 3500 for the OU game. Probably most will be wearing red.

Yeah lots of locals are OU fans this year. Hoping for 7k crowd.

I realize that this is a different era, but we had a clear majority (2/3 at least) when we played both Texas Tech and Oklahoma State.

I could be mistaken, but I don't remember it that way at all.

I think you're right with OSU.  With Texas Tech we had more like 75-80% of the crowd.

Exactly. Hopefully this game gets a lot of people hooked the way that the OSU and Tech games did in a prior era.

I feel like that number should be higher. But I suppose walk up will be big. It shouldn’t matter, but going up against the Cowboys isn’t helpful.

I want this win very very badly.

OSU was the first NT basketball game I ever attended my sophomore year (but first year at NT) and my senior year was the TT game. That was a fun time to be a student for basketball games.. man we were crazy!!! We don’t sit in the pit!!!

I was told that a lot of coaches using their passes have to go to the gate to get them and I don’t think they count yet. Also one told me he can’t wear an OU shirt even if they are an OU fan or coached Devion.
