I have to admit. I am about to graduate at North Texas, and this will be my 3rd season as a proud citizen of the Mean Green Nation. But I'm not a native Texan, I was born in Florida and grew up a Gators fan hating our intrastate rivals.

Do you have "another" team, and who is it?

I have several but none compare to North Texas. I'm a pretty big fan of Texas (I have a daughter that graduated from there), LSU (where I originally intended to go to college) and Navy (I tried to get into the academy).

My parents went to Penn State, and I was raised and remain a fan. I know it's not popular on this board, but I also pull for the 'Horns. I love watching just about any college football I can find, and have a whole lot more teams I like to root against (e.g., Miami, OU). But I definitely bleed green.

I'll always be loyal to the U of Georgia, my undergrad alma mater and my home state university. It was the first state university chartered in the country (1785), but didn't have its first students until 1801. UNC beat us to the actual title of oldest state u because it admitted its first class in 1795.

However, we do have that Damn Good Dog.

Notre Dame is my other team. I have a ton of friends from a previous job that are attending/have attended there and I try to make a trek there every year.

There are few places that give me chills like a Fightin' Irish football game in South Bend.

Tons of friends that went there, spent a lot of time at the Dixie Chicken.

North Texas

Texas, my first college football "team"

Houston, remember my dad taking me to watch them play back during the Andre Ware/David Klingler years.

After that I generally root for Texas teams. I LOVE watching SEC football. Some of the most talented athletes and most die-hard fans in the nation.

I have several other schools I root for for one reason or another. My other school - at least football wise, would be Auburn though. Loved'm as a kid, pulled for them ever since Bo Jackson's senior year.

First its most definitely North Texas.

For college football I have always been a pretty big Miami fan....always loved their uniforms, school and the fact that they've been really good for a long long time. I'm definitely a Canes backer.

For college basketball I guess I would have to say that I am a pretty big Duke fan but mainly because the greatness of Coach K. In addition to Duke, I have always backed and support Georgetown basketball....always a fan of John Thompson and now his son.

I was born in Fayetteville, AR and grew up my whole life and still religiously watch the Razorbacks. I spend most of my life in Denton and graduated UNT in 1999. The two teams are definately in two totally different ends of competetion so that it makes it definately easier for me.

Yes, but on September 29 those two different ends are going to meet. Who are you rooting (pun intended) for?

Sorry, about borrowing the thread for a moment.

1999 is going to sit at the edge of the visitor's section and the Razorback student section, wearing cardinal red and kelly green.

Well I never root against Arkansas. Ever. However, I do think it would be funny if the eagles beat the hogs if for nothing more, it would seal Nutt's end. It would also of course be a great win for the eagles. This would be my dream, though I don't think it will happen. DMac and Jones will probably mow through the eagle defense.

As to where I will be sitting - probably in the sea of red. I can get better tickets by buying them on the day of the game then now - and I for sure don't have enough "Points" through the UNT athletic department to buy them here.

      🙄 like I have stated before DC under a lame duck coach is not a highly desired job for coaches with options.

      That is very subjective. Boise State or UNLV probably will get the G5 spot in the playoff over a one loss Army team. Louisville, SMU, Houston, Rutgers and Cincinnati left conference for greener pastures. So I don’t know who anointed the AAC as 5th, but the playoff committee isn’t listening to them. Army, a team brand new to the conference that came into the conference and dominated. They were independent juggernauts last year at 6-6 🙄. AAC is viewed as better than the MAC, CUSA and Sun Belt. But we certainly won’t be viewed as better than the reconstructed PAC 12 and right now it doesn’t look like we are viewed better than the current MWC.

      Football at The Dat next wrekend

      Don't if y'all know this or not.....but the last two years we've had Texas high school football games played in Louisiana. Both years the games have been at Turpin Stadium in Natchitoches. As a matter of fact, this year they hosted two games on the same day. (Daingerfield versus Newton, and Texarkana versus Port Neches Grove). Both games were last Friday.

      The exact same thing was probably thought by other fan bases about Eric, Seth, Dan, and any other head coach we’ve hired here.
