Average high temps in Dallas for early January are 45-50 degrees.

Prepare to show pride and allegiance to your school by purchasing your MEAN GREEN sweatshirts and jackets while they are still available, or better yet, get them as Christmas gifts.

*hint - make sure it's not maroon, gold, black, gray, purple, or any other non North Texas color.

29-7-3.

I'll say it again--UNT and Texas State should play regularly.

[TripleGrad]

The wife is a SWT alumni, so we're going to have a fun time trash talking.  

I just hope they don't continue their domination of the AAC in Bowl Games.

I am underwhelmed, but I guess that is the best we could do with our record.

[UNT78]

Great news…should be a good match up and we should win this one! People show up for the damn game, it’s on ESPN, let’s make the most of this! Go to the Tx. St. Bobcat site and lets talk some shit!

[Hunter Green]

I wonder if we'll be the home team?

[Big Z]

I’m bummed that we didn’t get to go to Detroit for our bowl game…

[cousin oliver]

Excited to get back to the cotton bowl again!

Hope Chandler is healthy

I'm sure the kids would like to travel to an exciting destination but many of the players from TX will also be happy that this makes it easier for their family to see them play in a bowl game.

Luckily he will have 4 weeks to heal up

Late bowl game.  Is there a fixed limit on number of practices allowed???

Even if not allowed to get more practices, maybe at least more time to get the defense adjusted and possibly EM can come up with a few more play options.

Teams are only allowed 20 hours/week, and 4 hours/day for football activities (like the regular season), between the end of the season and their bowl. This includes film study and walkthroughs.

There is no "15 practice rule", that is just a phrase some people use. Miami is definitely using their full 20, but may not be calling them "practice".

Edit: The daily and weekly hour limitations DO NOT apply to the following time periods:

• During preseason practice prior to the first day of classes or the first scheduled contest, whichever is earlier.

• During an institution's term-time official vacation period (e.g., Thanksgiving, spring break), as listed in the institution's official calendar, and during the academic year between terms when classes are not in session.
