Three thoughts if these projections come to fruition. First, UTSA’s dream season likely ends with a 3rd straight loss after losing to WKU in the CUSA title game.     Second, a game against

6-6 UNT vs 11-1 UH? Makes sense. Let's do it.

This one should be for the players not the fans who gave up on them 6 weeks ago!  I hope they get a Warm Weather Bowl to a new area for players and Coaches.  They deserve it!

Total guess, but if it comes down to us or ODU in the Frisco I have to think our proximity gives us the edge.

The Frisco Bowl probably has a financial incentive to sell tickets this year since the game was cancelled last year due to Covid at SMU after the participating teams were announced.

Air travel is still tedious. I would think North Texas would be the natural selection to sell out their facility.

We, as fans, need to start doing everything possible to let the Frisco Bowl people know that we want to play in their game.

I'd love to play Memphis and think that could be a very competitive matchup. I'll take any bowl game at this point, but MAC teams don't get anyone anywhere excited. UTSA would be getting a very winnable top 25 matchup in BYU.

UTSA won't win another game this year with the way the last 3 weeks have gone, barely escaped USM and UAB and got their doors blown off by UNT. Think UTSA is toast

This has not been a great season for attendance at UNT games... realistically what would the UNT turn out look like for the Frisco Bowl? 

Packed with green! I would guess this area is the  biggest density of UNT alumni.

The stadium is so small, it would easily sell out between our local fans, and even a small travelling contingent from the opposition.

A few things:

I was planning on going to Oklahoma City for the NT Tulsa basketball game, but If the Frisco bowl is on that date, I’m in Frisco no matter what!!

Wish it wasn’t a Tuesday, but beggars can’t be choosers.

Kent State, somehow, won their division at 7-5. They are solid, but definitely manageable.

We would bring at least 16K to Frisco considering how well we’ve played recently.

The utsa game on another weekend that wasn’t near a holiday and with come good weather would have had about 10k more unt fans. I think it’s an easy sellout. Talking to friends who have showed little interest until recently are pumped to be able to attend a bowl game. It’ll be a great crowd.

Yuck! I hope we don't play UNT in a bowl game. If we do, then at least Tune will throw for over 400 yards on UNT's crappy defense and our true freshman running back McCaskill will run for 200 yards.

 

It will also make my trolling on here more amusing for a while.

Agreed. I can see WKU beating the brakes off of them in the Championship game and if they do happen to play BYU in the bowl game, BYU would have their way with them. UTSA has zero momentum going forward.
