North Texas on ESPN2

ntsumgspe · September 29, 2005

This coming Tuesday, October 4th, the North Texas football team will host the Troy Trojans before a "national" television audience on ESPN2. The "world wide leader in sports" reaches over 82 million homes. This will be the first nationally televised game ever from Fouts Field and could be the beginning of several such opportunities in the future. Throughout the evening the University of North Texas, the Mean Green Athletic program and the City of Denton will be highlighted. A large and enthusiastic crowd is a must! Come early as the Mean Green Tailgate Village will be open and events will begin as usual three hours prior to kickoff - live music, family fun zone, lettermen's tent, Mean Green March and other tailgating activities will help build momentum for this important Sun Belt Conference game.

Kickoff is at 6:30 PM and tickets begin at just $8. We would like to encourage you to attend the game and show your support for North Texas and the City of Denton. You may order tickets at 1-800-UNT-2366 or (940) 369-8627. The first 3,000 students with a valid ID receive a free t-shirt.

Yes, but will we still hide the 1500lb victory bell over behind the stands....again?

why cant we just go ahead and take the bell out right before the game, and display it, who is going to stop rowdy fans, the rent a cops, who dont even know where their a-holes are located at?

this really pisses me off that we cant display it during our nationally televised game.....just pathetic

Has this game been promoted in anyone else's classes? One of my professors announced it and encouraged people to go but I'm pretty sure it was by request of RV and the athletic dept. It was upsetting when the announcement was met by some snickers by various individuals in class. Regardless, I hope all students are being made aware of this game by announcements in class and not just by the posters that are all around the campus (which are nice btw.)
