I am very curious to know where the 4 time Sun Belt Champs are in regard to season ticket sales. In this piece, their AD says they are nearing 5,000.

"Fan: Eric (Murfreesboro)

Question: Are there any plans to get MT into a more stable and viable conference and what about getting more high profile teams coming to Murfreesboro?"

Uhhhh...win some football games, idiot. And stop biting the hand that feeds you.

Man, I hope we smack these pansies good!

"Question: How important is the home opener this year for the Blue Raiders football squad and Coach McCollum?

Massaro Response: It is a very important game and one we are very excited about. North Texas has won 25 straight conference games and all four Sun Belt Conference titles. We are hosting the best team in the Sun Belt. We have a lot of experience on our football team with 17 starters returning and historically the game with North Texas has always been close. It should be a great game and I hope we have a full house with an electric atmosphere. Buy your tickets NOW! It should be great!"

The MUTS are really promoting this game as "Big" to their fans. I do expect they will have a near full-house, but it will seem quiet compared to LSU.

I do disagree with their AD wanting weeknight games. It does affect attendance if it's not a name opponent.

Brett,

That is Classic!

That is exactly what he's saying. They know their season is over and their coach is toast if they lose the North Texas game. Now, if they can catch North Texas having an off week after LSU and score a lucky knockout punch........
