The Murphy Twins on importance of the UTSA game

[Coach Andy Mac]

Came here to play in big games, now three in a row – how much fun are you having?

Gabriel Murphy: A ton of fun. You know, that's why we came to a Power Five, to play in games like this, like you said. This one coming up's a big one, they said it's supposed to be a sold out game so we're very excited, and like you said, that's why we came here, and hopefully help the team.

Grayson Murphy: Yeah, always wanted to go to Oregon, so we'll get the chance. College GameDay being there, it's gonna be that much anticipated, that much more fun. And, you know, I'm just excited.

Chip Kelly said anything about the environment?

Grayson Murphy: Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're playing crowd noise out here and stuff like that. We know it's gonna be loud. And then coach Kelly, coming from there back in the day, he was talking about how the atmosphere, the stadium kind of bounces noise off it and back into the stadium. So it's gonna be loud, that's really what he's been pressing on us.

Any road games like that at North Texas?

Gabriel Murphy: Probably the closest, I would say, is UTSA, cause that was a big rivalry. It was always like, we beat them for the conference, they'd beat us for the conference, so that was a big game for us. And last year, they was ranked No. 15 in the country, so all the fans came out, and that's probably the biggest game I've ever played in.

Grayson Murphy: Yep.

so all the fans came out,

The rain must have blurred my vision from seeing all the fans that were at the UTSA game last year.

Maybe someone advised them taking pot shots at your previous school is not a good look

I will go on record to say I loved the Murphy Bros. wearing green.  I know PB was not president of their fan club because of maybe one too many jumps offside, but to me that’s how competitive they were.  I only wish them the best in LaLa land.

The offsides were annoying, but it was the 15 yard penalties for me. Wish them all the best, but don’t miss the penalties. BTW, our penalties (or lack of penalties) this year has greatly improved!  Props to the coaches and players. GMG!

I don't understand our fascination with players that chose to leave here to play elsewhere.

The OL play has been fantastic. 500 rush yards last game, 0 sacks last game, and yes, very few holding calls!!

Agreed. I read on this board today that Mason Fine is now playing in CANADA!

I don't know the psychology behind it, but if someone feels like it might be useful to someone else - even if they don't care themselves - maybe it makes them feel useful to post it in a new thread, right?

So are we just supposed to forget about any player that has spent time here?  Doesn't seem wrong to keep tabs on guys that have given their time here to me.

That's like keeping tabs on your ex-wife to see how she's doing.

The gall of some people, I swear.

I'd also like for y'all to stop California-ing my Texas by posting threads about the 49'ers Running Back please.

 

In all seriousness, many of the same people who are so excited to post about how Kason Martin is doing in Portales, are the same ones pooping on the Murphys.   It's odd.

I'm sure no one does that, ever.
