A Word Before Saturday's Game

Saturday's game against superpower LSU may get ugly. Probably will. All the numbers suggest it will.

Some of us get frustrated and negative, and some put their fingers in their ears and bury their heads in the sand. But I believe that all of us - every single person who has ever called themselves a Mean Green fan - have hope. We come together, we buy the tickets and hats and t-shirts, we volunteer our time, and we show up every week and cheer on the Mean Green because we love North Texas and because we have hope. Hope that this week will be the week, like the week we stood toe-to-toe with the Longhorns. Or the week we came off the deck to defeat a heavily-favored Middle Tennessee to start our run of four Sun Belt titles. Like the week we beat the Tennessee Volunteers.

And neither LSU nor a hurricane is going to extinguish that hope.

Give 'em hell, Mean Green!

      Spot on. Maybe I need to remind everyone about losing to FIU, or starting Earle for 2 games, or unable to move it ball for 4 downs vs Navy to try and get a tying FG, or letting Memphis go 75 yards with only 47 seconds left.

      Is D1 Split Coming Soon?

      Again, why? The so called P5 level gets most of the attention and money. Do they really want to endure all the legal problems with creating even more of a monopoly? Most are perfectly able to see the logical extension of an exclusive league of the top forty to fifty top schools. They would have to play a lot more equal schedule and as now the same SEC schools would dominate. Seven or eight wins would be a great season for most members of this division. Add the problems of funding and scheduling for all sports not football or men's basketball, and lack of geographical rivals. Plus at some point, a disillusioned fan base is going to see the folly of NIL and stop funding another pro league. The NFL at least sees the wisdom of some parity to competition. They have drafts, salary caps, comparable schedules, and player and staff limits that foster competition. While the NCAA has some of these controls, they seem more than willing to weaken or eliminate them.

      Enough of this PAC nonsense with two teams. Honor the rapper and call it “2PAC”.

      Welcome Army

      Weren't their rumors that VCU was gonna be added...along with Army? I thought they turned us down. I'm not sure the A10 schools would consider AAC an upgrade. I think they're all A10?
