Should NT Copy TCU as We Prepare 4 LSU?

[PlummMeanGreen]

On the way home from the office tonight, I turned on ESPN 103.3 FM and it was TCU Night.

Tidbits from TCU Coach Pattersons Show Tongiht:

** He will play 14 defensive linemen in their game vs OU next week in an attempt to keep his "D" as fresh as possible. Do we even have 14 DL's in camp?

** Coach Pat said to prepare for the Sooners they will let their jumbotron go wild with noise and also bring large speakers down onto the Amon Carter Stadium field to simulate the kind noise they will hear in Norman. He thinks his young players especially need to hear all this extra noise at ACS before they travel to Norman.

** Coach Pat said he didn't think there would be a BCS in 2 years yet a college football play-off and that TCU would continue doing the things they have control of, ie, better recruiting and (especially) their continuing the enhancement of their football and athletic facilities in general. The NCAA D1-A facilities arm race continues, folks.

** The TCU coach said he was more worried about their SMU game than OU.

NOT RELATED TO TCU AT ALL BUT RATHER..........MEAN GREEN STUFF & THE BEST GAME EVER PLAYED AT FOUTS FIELD: I am presently watching the 3'rd quarter of the 2002 CHAMPIONS DVD and the bowl-deciding NT/NMSU game and you just cannot believe (except for you who were there) how our Mean Green crowd became such an integral and vital part of that game with the kind of noise I never though was accoustically possible at Fouts Field. We should be as loud at the NT/Tulsa game on September 17'th. I'll be there/will you?

---Jimmy Johnson did a similar thing with Dallas Cowboys... he played a lot of lineman to keep them rested somewhat. But that only works if the bench is not a lot worse than what is on the field. He tried to keep a lot of good lineman on the roster.

Do you know where I can obtain a copy of the 2002 CHAMPIONS DVD ? I have the 2003 and 2004 but can't locate the 2002.

Maybe we could just politely ask the LSU fans to be quiet when North Texas has the ball. That way we will not have to alter our practice methods.

Firstly, I'd call NT Athletics (1-800-UNT-2366) but after that, I have no idea where you could find a copy of the 2002 NT FB highlight DVD call......CHAMPIONS.

Good luck in finding a copy.

PS: Harry/Cerebus, my last 2 posts say 6,986--what gives? I had something special to post on # 7,000.
