I swear anytime I come in here and UTSA is mentioned, it has the same damn energy as PonyFans whenever we're mentioned.

Except UTSA fans can spell and do basic math. PonyFans people are all excited about blowing 200k for undergrad and then ending up at UTSA for grad school.

Edited for kindness. I'm sure 2 or 3 SMU peeps could qualify for UNT's or UTEP's grad programs, and several for UTSA or UTA, but most are still gonna end up at TAMU Commerce or Tarleton.

Point is, UTSA is not the enemy - the true enemy of both of us is far closer.

I know I'm going to make people here pretty angry, but UTSA-SDSU absolutely SHOULD outdraw our bowl game. They are 12-1, CUSA champs, facing an 11-2 SDSU team, and their game is in the evening. Y

UTSA is living inside some of y'alls heads, rent free.

The forecast for the Frisco Bowl could be as low as 50 degrees at kickoff with a 31 percent chance of rain. There's no way UTSA can play in those conditions.

What I fear is that once the diminishing financial returns of minor bowl games gets to a level that doesn’t make Financial sense they will roll them back too far.

Bowl games have increased from 15 in 1980 to 25 in 2000 to 42 this year.

This trend tells me that bowls are making money for somebody. ESPN loves bowls so much it runs 17 of them (18 if they're handling the Frisco Classic). If they weren't profitable they wouldn't keep growing, and all that growth is in minor bowls.

No.  It was another UTSA fan named Joseph XXXXX from Houston.  

UTSA fans... we know your board is a f'in joke but if you want to come over here and troll... at least be good at it. 

 

 

Hey, I'm a UNT alum, too.  I just happened to go to UTSA first.

Many people go the JUCO route first 😇

Haha.  I see what you did there!

I should be more specific that I earned degrees from both. 

Side note: UNT ticket people don't like it when you go pick up your student ticket wearing UTSA gear.  My bad. ☠️. I'd wear green for all the non-utsa games though.

We gotta get you off the fence man.  That’s just not a good look. You really gotta pick a team cause we don’t allow even partial UTSA fans at our parties and stuff.

Keep in mind that the Frisco Football Classic is not an incremental bowl game.   It replaced the Red Box San Francisco bowl game.  
 

Carry on.

An associates degree is a degree so you definitely won that point!

Based on his post, looks like he's already chosen his side of the fence

UCONN (Maui...1.30p CST if you're cutting out of work this week...Colorado/Michigan State on their side of the bracket...UNC, Iowa State, Dayton, Auburn round out the field) ; ULL v. UAB ; High Point v. Old Dominion ; McNeese v. Liberty 11/26 - Memphis v. Colorado/Michigan State ; Tulane v. Wyoming (I guess?) 11/27 - Memphis game 3 ; Charlotte v. The Fighting John Buggs 11/28 - UNT v. UNI ; Utah State v. St. Bonaventure ; Wichita State v. Minnesota that Thanksgiving slate looking a lot more entertaining that the NFL

      Anyone else still rooting for Eric Morris?

      We have an over $50M a year athletics budget. Significantly more than FAU and Charlotte who are pulling the plug on their failed year 2 coaching experiments. Are you saying we’re not capable of doing what these peers do? It’s a matter of will, not resources.

      When The Portal Opens

      I’m predicting a lot of change. JayD and Miles mentioned it on their podcast, keep a few of our returners on defense and hope the new DC brings some of his current players. Not sure what we do on offense. Need to keep C4 to try and help recruit some players from the portal. Build some OL depth.

      Around the League / UNT Opponents

      FAU - ended up 1-2 in their tourney...beat Oklahoma State, then fell to Drake and a two-point loss to Seton Hall in the third place game. FAU is just 4-4 on the season, but none of those games look like bad losses. they're blending in a new coach with nearly an entirely new roster...they've 8 dudes who can legit give you double-figures scoring every night, so they're still gonna be scary by the time conference play gets here. Memphis - beat a good San Francisco team and open the Maui Invitational tonight with #2 UCONN Wichita State - ran through St. Louis. Shockers seem to be back to normal Utah State - beat Iowa 77-69 to move to 6-0. it's 50/50 we play USU or get also now 6-0 St. Bonaventure at the NIT Tip-Off after our game with UNI Temple - lost a close game to Florida State, but came back to beat UMASS High Point - lost to Missouri State

      Cotton, Vice And Mason

      Wonder if our freshman development had anything to do with this guy going back on his commitment... eventually our refusal to play young guys will become a trend and the good ones will stop committing to this staff.
