I would gladly do multiple years at Texas Stadium if it meant Fouts was gone.

That is brutal...Should toughen them up though. Either they will be VERY ready by the time they play us, or they will be a bloody fraction of themselves after that schedule. Think of the money games there though, I guess it will help them pay for their new stadium.

It's tough but not a brutal as our 1995 schedule:

1995-North Texas schedule

9/2 @ Missouri

9/9 vs. Kansas

9/16 vs. Oregon State

9/23 @ Oklahoma

10/7 @ Nevada

10/14 vs. UAB

10/21 @ LSU

10/28 @ Alabama

11/4 @ UNLV

11/11 vs. Idaho State

11/18 @ Louisville

does anyone have any links or know where I can go to find what their new stadium will look like? and maybe what their old one looks like now?

Now THAT is a non-conference schedule. I predict that will be the best “strength of schedule” in the conference. Talk about playing your “body bag” (paycheck, etc) games

They will get crushed in all 5 games...but it is an impressive schedule. I predict 0-5 in their OOC games.

That's essentially an SMU clone.

I would happily play at DISD stadium for a few years so that we didnt have to play at Fouts and wait for new stadium
