It was good to get to meet SUMG, Green Grenade, Green Joe, Corinth Eagle, and Adler.

I was glad that so many people at the show tonight. As a fan and alum, nothing makes me prouder than to see fans stand behind their team through the tough times. Dodge said that these kids will be rewarded for their hard work and I know that some good things are ahead of us.

See you on Saturday. Go Mean Green!!!

East Texas MG...where in East Texas do you live? We live in Greenville. I don't meet a lot of alums out here and further east. There are a few but not many. Most of course are from TX A&M Commerce (formerly East Texas State).

I am from Mount Pleasant, but my wife and I live in the metroplex.

The best part of the show for me was I won the mascot trivia question. Q: What is the mascot of Lubbock High? A: Westerners Interesting...I wonder why that was the question. Are we recruiting anyone from Lubbock High? Wonder if they will be at the game on Saturday??? I'm not trying to start rumors, I just thought it was interesting..... B)

That's no Sh#t!! I hate hearing people complain about how they don't like being fans of losers....who does? That's what fans are "fanatics" stick with the team through the good and the bad times. It's easy to be a fan of the Yankees of the late 90's, the Lakers of the early 2000s and the Cowboys of the early 90's. It's hard to live by every game of the late 80's Cowboys, the whole Rangers existence and the Mavericks up until 8 years ago. Some people don't understand the meaning of fans. GO MEAN GREEN!!!

For me my answer is always the same each monday morning when I get back to work and get sarcastically asked..."You drove to Baton Rouge/Norman/ Austin/Fayetteville to see that?????"

Your team is like your kids. You don't love 'em cause their good, you love 'em cause their yours!

well-said. living in houston, everyone thinks im crazy for going on the road so many times to see games. i couldnt care less. theres a certain indescribable elation i feel when i see our team take the field in the green and white. no matter the score, always enjoy. for the most part. I could do less 65-0s and 79-10s... but you get the point!

I'm glad the show is now at Sweetwater. Would I be out of line to take a Mean Green cap next week and offer it to the waiter that wears the Texas Longhorns cap ? At least he could wear it during the show ?

No. And I would make sure the manager sees the exchange.

I, too, thought the turbnout was "pretty good" for this week's show. I almost missed going, but had to get myself (and my wife) there to support Dodge and the team. It is easy to be a fan when you are 5-0...just ask all the "new" Dallas Cowboys "fans" you meet since they are now 5-0...it is another thing altogether when your team is 0-5. This IS THE TIME to get out and support this team and this program. The show was good and being with the Mean Green Nation is a plus in itself. Sweetwater is a decent location...the food is good and the beer is cold enough...we do need all the wait staff wearing Mean Green colors if they work the patio during the show...bring that hat on Greenjoe.

I have been to all but one of the Dodge Shows this year, and it seems we get the same group each week...with one or two "newbies" or returnees. Come on olks, make it a crowded patio at Sweetwater this next week. WIN OR LOSE.

As I have said many times this year...I want these things from UNT football this season:

1. A team that plays to the last whistle ... GOT IT!

2. An enjoyable game to watch for my season ticket dollar ... GOT IT!

I am two for two and a happy camper...sure I'd like to see some W's, but I don't expect too much in that arena this first season...it's a "whole new ballgame"...new offense, new defense, new coaches, new expectations, etc., etc. Hey, it's fun...come on out and support the Mean Green this Saturday and then join me Monday at Sweetwater...win or lose...I'll be there!

Have you got your Sink Navy shirt yet? They will be available at this Saturday's game in Tailgate area at the Exes tent. Buy several...proceeds go to UNT scholarships! :rolleyes:

      Go to YOUTUBE and request Army/UNT highlights. They had them a few hours after the game yesterday. I don't know about the entire game.

      ***OFFICIAL ARMY VS MEAN GREEN IN-GAME DISCUSSION***

      The stats with context tell us more. I feel like Army kept the defense on the field on purpose to limit a famously high flying North Texas team. I agree we had turnovers- how effective were they? How many 1st downs did army have in a single drive? Army never turned the ball over on downs with high 3rd down efficiency. We lucked out on the fumble from the RB. How long did it take to get the turnover? How was the field position that the defense earned? Those are better questions. Our defense did a lot and I loved seeing the sack, near fumble (ruled an incompletion), interception, and lack of penalties(that pass interference in the red zone hurt) to deflate their passing game- all 4 attempts. Then, they took us on the ground. Daily slid early to drain more time on a run near the 50. They line up with the same formation for an easy read to gain a yard or two, but, more importantly, the clock starts back up. This was triple option football and I feel like we failed to disrupt their plans. I want us to be better on all sides of the ball. I don’t a moral victory. I want us to acknowledge that Army, just like Tulane 2 weeks ago, used the run effectively against the defense. However, they used it to play at their tempo/style limiting our offense time on the field. I love the heart these players showed. I feel like any one of those teams from Army’s past 13 games are not the caliber we should be proud of being better than (except Coastal and Navy). Watching at army launch the ball vs Temple, Tulsa, & UAB was insane. But Daily is a okay QB that fits the triple option scheme as a runner primarily. Horvath is a miracle for service academy passing. Daily has 51 passing attempts YTD versus Horvath’s monstrous 117 attempts for a service academy. Daily has the same interception rate as Henigan. I’ll see y’all in San Antonio. I’m still excited to see this team play and I know we can win out the season. I just feel like they were par for the course this Army weekend. If anyone complained about the DC all season, this game should not sway someone.
