One of my favorite things about college football (as long as we’re not listed).  What happened to the “waiting room” ?

This is a different column than the "Bottom 10" you're thinking of, with it's snarky humor.  Is that still around?  Does someone have a link for it?

There were several teams that canceled their games. Wonder why they tried to even go and play.

So sad. Prayers prayers comforting vibes sent. Make you wonder what teams like App State and Georgia Southern will do with their upcoming games.

I get South Alabama weekly happening emails now and they added QR donation codes to help their conference mates. One for App State and one for Georgia Southern. 

Tough times for the Carolinas and Tennessee.

If we lose to Memphis and Tulane but win every other game, this is just ammo for another Frisco Bowl. We have to break through the top layer of the conference!

Memphis, Tulane, Army, and ECS are going to be tough games, especially the first three. However we do get all at home except Memphis. I just don't want to be 5&5 and needing to beat UTSA and Temple to get out of Frisco Bowl. If we finish  8&4 we probably get a decent bowl, 7&5 maybe, but 6&6 no way.

I really would like to win one of the Memphis/Tulane games, but I'm afraid it's not likely.  Hopefully, the off week gets some injuries cured and provide additional practice for those that have had to fill in for lost players.

At a minimum, I want us to play both of those games competitively.  Otherwise, this starts looking more like an SL team (beat the bad teams, lose to the good ones).

Would love to see us beat Memphis and get a great crowd for the Tulane game.  Get a win against them and the place should be rockin' for the Army game!

I knew Kevin Wilson was a dumb hire for Tulsa.  He is an old, white man who has never been a good head coach.

Also how is UTSA not on this list yet?

21. UTSA 2-4 UTSA has bounced in and out of the Bottom 25 all year. The latest results indicate the Roadrunners are here to stay. A two-point loss to Rice was a stark sign of this program's significant drop off.  (NR)

We really don’t have the luxury of dismissing any game this season. UTSA is going to be battle we can’t look past. We take this week by week. This one is a stout Memphis defense and running game. We saw FAU play a similar game and we fought like hell to win.

Sorry, but this is an idiotic post.

      Love me some Chico with the jet black Roy Orbison interim hair. For me Chico is like Creed. I'm not supposed to love them but I do. Coach Canales loved North Texas more than most alumni.

      Earth to GMG

      This world does not exist anymore. It used to, but not in the portal and NIL age of college football. If players cared about coaching staff stability they would not be transferring at the rate they are. If this thinking permeates our AD, then they need to look for a new line of work because that ship sailed. Seriously, how many 17-18 years olds sit down and review the contracts of the coaches to decide which offer to take? High school recruiting should be de-emphasized. It can't go away completely, but building a program through the high school ranks over multiple years no longer works. When recruiting high school players, I think the only "stability" play is academic stability. There are a lot of players that have the skill and ability to play D1 football, but won't make it to the next level. Hopefully they are smart enough to realize that. Sell them (and their parents!) on playing a sport they love and getting a solid education and degree while they do. That's why it's important to continue to improve the academic status of UNT. We're not going to be a Stanford, but improving 4-year graduation rates and tighter admission standards will help.

      AAC Trend - Year 2 of 5 Firings

      At this point in the football cycle, if you fire a coach then you throw away all the recruiting work being done for the following seasons. The portal opens up in just a few days, and most AAC schools build their next years roster in the transfer portal. How hard is it going to be for these programs to build rosters for next season if they dont have a head coach going into the transfer window?

      I hope we lose to Temple

      Remember how much we hated La Tech in the 90’s and ‘2000’s? How we mocked them for stupidly going from an Independent in the 90’s to wasting the mega bucks on travel in the WAC in the 2000’s, and their obnoxious fans coming here talking trash? Then 2012 happened…… https://coachad.com/news/did-louisiana-tech-really-turn-down-a-bowl-game/ They had elevated their program to the point that when they lost the last two conference games of the ‘12 season finishing 9-3, and ending as the nation’s #1 offense, they were so damn upset over it they chose, either directly or indirectly to not play ULM in the Independence Bowl. That announcement was the day I practically fell in love with their school and their program because to me it was the greatest stance on principle and accountability and a standard they felt they had set for themselves and held to. Since then, we’ve been there several times, you and me, and have seen how poor their athletics were funded all those years, which gained even more respect from this college athletics fan. That’s where I am as a fan and alumn of NT right now. Wishing we would set a standard, a high standard and stick with it. Rick
