Horned Frogs up 14 - 0 over the #9 ranked Cougars at Amon Carter. I'm following the game on gamecast , anyone know if it's on TV ???

If this keeps up looks likes Utah,Boise State & Tulsa will have to play the BCS buster roles

I just got a call from Amon Carter from an NT alumn who was smart enough to have kids sooner than later I might add and I could hardly hear him at all on the phone. He said what came to mind as soon as kickoff started was that he greatly wished the students at North Texas who are currently deciding our program's fate could see the potential that they are currently voting on. He said the game and atmosphere is simply outstanding. He's with some season ticket holders who have the private parking/tailgating spaced on the northwest side of the stadium that allows their alumni to personalize them with permanant fixtures. He said he wishes North Texas would sell something like that in the future. Said he would call back with an update.

I don't have verses and am having to listen to it online, so I assume that like myself, much of the metroplex is missing one of the best local games of the week. TCU is up 17-0 on a very well coached and ranked BYU team.

TCU up over 8th ranked BYU 23-0 in the 2nd quarter.

Thank god - the top 10 is about to cannabalize itself over the next 6 weeks and I'd hate to see BYU get rolled in the title game....after I sit through our season I at least want to see the best matchups...

I'm watching it off and on...Ch. 90 if you have Verizon FIOS. A good crowd at Amon Carter but some empty spots in the far upper corners. Not that crazy about TCU's black jerseys with dark purple pants. That "truck horn" sound after scores gets old real fast.

Not a truck horn, a freight train horn and several of them all in one tight package, bought and paid for by TCU mega donor Burlington Northern Railroad.

Why go trick up their uniforms when they had a perfectly good uniform to start with? I just saw them on TV, wow they look bad. Purple pants and Black tops - but true to form these days with Black consuming half of your uniform even though it is not a part of your school colors. Whatever.

That "truck horn" is worse in person.

Went to the game last night, it was a blast. TCU has been tricking up their unis with black for several years. I like their frog horn, its their bit and its a good bit. Lots of BYU fans, but it will take a Big 12 or SEC team to fill that place...which btw they have Tech, OU and LSU coming to the fort in the future.

Hell of an atmosphere, that Frog D is as fast as any D I have ever seen. Will be interesting to see what happens if TCU runs the table. Looks like Boise is this years BCS team, but Frogs could get up to 12 and make a case. Regardless the MWC would kill the Big East and I think the BCS knows it.

I was at the game last night as well. We have season tix on the home side on the south goal line. Man, what a game. Loud, roudy, and a blast. For those of you who don't know, the Mountain West Conference has three ranked teams right now, BYU, Utah, and TCU. TCU took a big step last night, but Utah still has the upper hand. They are still undefeated and they get TCU in Utah in 2 weeks on a Thursday night. If they can take care of TCU up there, they very well might bust the BCS.

How about the ACC? The Big East actually has won a few BCS Bowl games in recent years. Just ask Oklahoma about it.

The ACC is something like 1-9 in the Major Bowls.

You have no idea the wonderful day it is for me when the BYU fans are sulking.

I heard they just start reproducing after a loss.

In fairness, they do this when they win too.

Any good racist comments after the game?

I ran into perhaps the drunkest TCU undergrad in on campus last night after the game, You know the type, long sleeve white oxford, black northface fleece vest, jeans, boots, 80's cool shag hair and sunglasses on Caroke's...he slurred something like "I hate f'ing Mormons" to which I replied "Really, I've always found them to be quite enjoyable". He didnt process what I was saying and disappeared between the cars to take a leak mumbling f bombs along the way.

The Mormons seem to drum up quite a bit of venom from the young Disciples, even more so than the Catholics, Baptists or Methodists.

      24/25 MBB Attendance Tracker

      Third home game in a row under 3K in attendance and 4th for the season. Now at 2,947, average attendance is down almost 13% (439 per game) compared to the first 7 home games last year. We are now down 1,185 in average attendance compared to last season's full year average. The home conference slate kicks off with UAB on New Year's Eve. Hopefully, we will be able to chip away at this attendance deficit as some familiar foes visit the Super Pit, but it looks like hitting a 4K average and growing average attendance for the 3rd year in a row is becoming increasingly out of reach. Just win and they will come they said. SMH. On the bright side, we're currently sitting at 9-3 and 7-0 at home and own the 2nd best Net rating in the conference only behind Memphis. Unfortunately, the conference is incredibly weak this year so we don't have many opportunities to improve that ranking. Aside from winning on the road at Memphis, holding serve in terms of a Net rating may be the best we can do from here. Actually, looking at the schedule, we do have three Q2 road games (Wichita St, FAU and Temple). They need to keep winning and we will need to win those three to improve our resume.

      SMUt getting owned by State

      Tell me you’ll peddle BS on SMU’s behalf without telling me you’ll peddle BS on SMU’s behalf. Here is SMU’s attendance claim for this season; one so amazing that they made a nifty graphic for it. The only issue? Well, they played 7 home games and the stadium seats 32k…so an average attendance of 32,651 which is standing room only and beyond capacity is a bit difficult to swallow and leads one to believe that only believers in SMU math would buy it. And save me the “but look at North Texas’ attendance” garbage. Even someone as committed to being separated from reality as you knows that if North Texas 1) bought their way into the ACC to allow us to fill our stadium with opposing fans, 2) overpaid for players, and 3) had the easiest conference schedule possible to stack wins…Apogee would have been LEGITIMATELY sold out. And let me save you the trouble of the next silly argument you were just itching to type as a retort…yes, we have far more alumni, but we are not situated DEAD CENTER in a city of 1.3 Million people like SMU has been for decades

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      Come to think of it, ESPN and the other networks who really benefit from all of this, should contribute $$ to a NIL fund and distribute equally to each schools NIL for them to use at their discretion. Wouldn't that be fair?

      Say you didn't see any SMU crowds this season, without saying you didn't see any SMU home crowds this season. That place was packed and rocking, like nobody could've dreamed.
