It might be their first game as the Red Wolves but Yahoo! has logo still showing the Indians. Maybe Yahoo! will update our logo someday too.

Don't know if this is true or not but its a great story.

I just heard that we got a standing ovation when they announced the final score at the Texas Longhorn game...not only that, they blasted the cannon after they announced the score...the first time ever Texas has done that for another team!!

Very good win for your team. I can only imagine how much the Horns are loving this.

Also, UCF is beating themselves up for beating Sacramento State 17-0. They were up 7-0 going into the 4th. I bet they miss Kevin Smith.

Me too, Jersey Girl was okay but I'd like to see more of Jay and Silent Bob. ;)

I can try to confirm on Tues. a co-worker went to UT and the game this weekend. I'll see what he says.

      Transfer Portal Hits pre First Responder Bowl

      Because Morris & Cobbs believed they didn't need to. I think McGill, Harris, & Evans are returning, but who knows if Harris or Evans will even be healthy? We added Becks from MOSt, and Hawkins from HS in OK, but who knows what they bring? I don't know that McGill is a starting caliber RB in the AAC. If you think Porter should have been scholarship'd, you're second-guessing Pat. I doubt anyone around here really wants to second-guess Pat's judgement of talent. OR (and this is doubtful), Pat pushed to have Porter 'shiped, but Morris said "no". If that's the case, and Porter goes on to ball-out at UTEP while we struggle in the run game, it's another log on a growing fire under Morris' seat.

      Who did better? PAC 12 or Mountain West?

      The PAC stands a real chance of becoming the 'Big East of the West', but I think they'll still be fighting to get into the CFP each year with the rest of the G5. MWC obviously is a huge downgrade since they're the conference that got raided. The best thing they have going for them is stability. Outside of AFA and, to a lesser degree, NIU and UNLV, no one has any interest in those schools. AAC did well with the Army pickup. What happens in the next few years under the new commissioner will be important. As a conference, we've scheduled ourselves into a one bid joke like Sun Belt or CUSA. They've gotta figure out some strategy there. For football, it's hard to say we're better or worse off than last year. SMU going to the CFP was a fluke compared with the past 30 years, but I imagine they'll be a stronger program in general than they were in the AAC due to the amount of money and attention the ACC brings. At least while it lasts...

      Mean Green Travel to Tulane for Midweek Matchup

      I started to do "official" game threads almost 20 years ago for the men's games to try and create some order, but I don't mind when others do.

      Who did better? PAC 12 or Mountain West?

      In terms of the Pac12/MWC tweet above and what they both started with (not the legacy Pac, the WSU and OSU Pac), the Pac12 came out way ahead of the MWC. They need 1 more right? Where do they get it or do they try to add more than one. In terms of the AAC, SMU out and Army In. Love having another service academy as a conference mate and it was probably the best move the conference could make...national recognition and following. The whole Army/Navy game piece is kind of a monkey wrench. Overall, with SMU's performance and getting into the CFP this year makes the loss of SMU a bit more that the addition of Army (at least this year). Let's see how the next couple years pan out.

      GFed ranks the AAC Stadiums...

      Like a lot of complaints, it’s probably a vocal few.
