what do we know about Texas Southern

[southsideguy]

I have no idea.

It shouldn't be that difficult of a game, line is at UNT -9.5 and ESPN gives UNT a 99.4% chance of winning.

Whomever asked SL 7 years ago in his press conference if he'd have us beating TSU in year 7 - props to ya!  I'm sure that was on everyone's mind then.

The fact that we're only favored by 9 against a team we're paying a million bucks to play us is incredibly concerning, but also not surprising.

They have a good band.

Didn't know we were paying them that much. Moving forward, I hope the AD stops buying wins and re-purposes that money to NIL. That $1 million yearly expense going to NIL would be a better boost IMO.

Not entirely sure it's that much. Just made up a number. Point being, if we're paying someone to come to town we should be 3 TD favorites at minimum

@Brett Vito have you done the FOIA for the game contract?  Any facts/PDFs you can add regarding how much this pay to play game cost?

That matters around here a lot...

Won't be too hard to get ready for TSU.   No Aune passing needed this week.  PVA&M beat them 40-23 with NO passing yards and 400 yards rushing on only 60 carries.

The University and NIL are to remain separate entities. Doing what you suggested would be NCAA violation. Not that it matters because are there really any violations anymore? This is sports anarchy right now so eff it, divert the funds to NIL. I say this in jest.

Not sure where you're seeing us as only 9.5 pt favorites. I can't find a line posted anywhere. 9.5 would be giving money away lol

There's always a workaround. Go back to scheduled body bag games at 1.5 million per game so the donnors don't need to shell out that much to supplement the university's funds and instead ask the big donnors to give what would have gone to the university, to the NIL. Not sure if what I'm trying to say makes sense to you.

Aune needs to work on his passing but I get what you mean. Aune needs to throw the ball at least 25 times

[NTSU52]

They are an FCS team but we need to take them seriously *Portland State flashbacks*😵

[Udomann]

Sweet mother of god, 0 passing yards. Even Aune can beat that!

My spread was a little off 🤣 guess I saw the line from this past week and wasn't paying attention.

I think his passing is just what it is.  It's not going to change at this point in his career, regardless of more practice or game reps.

That sounds more accurate.  I’m not much if a gambling man, but I was going to get some of that NT-9 action.

Then have Gunnell come in and finish.  Remember he'll be here next year.

Damn! Aune would be a step up for either of those teams’ passing attack.
