09 Fb Schedule In Construction

[bstnsportsfan3]

Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I believe I read somewhere that one of the stipulations of being 1A is to have at least 6 home games every other year. Since we only had 5 this year, don't we then get 6 next? As for who we schedule, until we can beat somebody, anybody, I think it's really neither here nor there.

well...we had 5 at home in 07 and 5 at home in 08...i wish we would have 6 home games once...

Ball State will roll us next season unless their QB is injured or leaves to the NFL. Way too much talent for the Mean Green.

I remember reading somewhere last year that beginning in 2009 we would have 6 home games each year. I just found the link. It was on this board.

I just noticed I'm about to hit my 400th post! Not bad for an old lady!

so were playing ULM for homecoming?

I am pretty sure we have Ohio U coming to Fouts... we have 6 home games next year (4 conference and then Army as well as Ohio)... Not sure if we play WKY again but they owe us a home game, too.

Damn. I would have loved to see this schedule about 4-5 years ago. We might have gone 11-1. You know, what Boise does every year against eirily similar schedules.

Maybe we're finally getting our sh!t together on the scheduling front? Putting an a home game against an FCS team as a season opener would be the final icing on this cream-puff cake...

Our schedules have not been that brutal the last few years... in fact, the year that Dickey got canned - we had only one money game and all other OOC were winnable games:

Sat, Sep 02 Texas at Austin, Texas 7 - 56 (L)

Sat, Sep 09 SMU Denton, Texas 24 - 6 (W)

Sat, Sep 16 Tulsa at Tulsa, Oklahoma 3 - 28 (L)

Sat, Sep 23 Akron at Akron, Ohio 13 - 33 (L)

Sat, Sep 30 Middle Tennessee * Denton, Texas 0 - 35 (L)

Sat, Oct 07 Florida International * Denton, Texas 25 - 22 (W) - 7 ovetime game won by a FG

Sat, Oct 21 Arkansas State * at Jonesboro, Arkansas 10 - 29 (L) - I believe that Kenny Evans coached this game, Dickey might have been too sick to make it (not sure about that though)

Sat, Oct 28 Troy * at Troy, Alabama 6 - 14 (L)

Sat, Nov 04 Louisiana Tech Denton, Texas 31 - 34 (L)

Sat, Nov 11 Louisiana-Lafayette * at Lafayette, Louisiana 16 - 7 (W)

Sat, Nov 18 Florida Atlantic * Denton, Texas 16 - 17 (L) - The internet ordered, iron on numbered, go "F" yourself North Texas and all your M'F'ing fans black uniforms make their debut

Sat, Nov 25 Louisiana-Monroe * at Monroe, Louisiana 3 - 23 (L)

OOC games at Texas (49 point loss), win over a 1 oe 2 win SMU team at home, loss against Tulsa, bad loss against a bad Akron team in the Rubber Bowl, loss to a bad La Tech squad. One money game and a lot of chances for a .500 season (plus getting embarrased by the MUTS at home) made the Dickey firing inevitable.

Will we have 6 home games?

I was told we will have 6 home games this year!

Though I will believe it when I see it, we better not have a home game the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

Ohio here ?

Totally agree....forgot how that last schedule for DD looked. Can you imagine, though, what might have been if we had played that schedule in 2002? 2003?...even 2004? 2 or 3 10+ win seasons would have been HARD to screw up, no matter how boring the offense. Not trying to defend DD, but our program has GOT to open it's eyes to what this game is about (big picture) and see that scheduling for success is how the little guys that are moving up are getting there.

That schedule and this upcoming schedule are definitely signs that we are starting to get it. Now we just need to put a team out on the field that can take advantage of it....

9-3-09 At Ball State - LOSS

9-19-09 at Alabama - LOSS

11-21 Army at home - WIN

All others TBA - LOSS

La Monroe - LOSS

Western KY - WIN

Florida Atlantic - LOSS

Middle Tennessee - WIN

at Florida International - LOSS

at Louisiana Lafayette - WIN

at Troy - LOSS

at Arkansas State - LOSS

1 non conference foe TBA - LOSS.

FOUR WINS. IMPROVEMENT!!!! Won't be enough to keep our current HC around though.

[KRAM1]

Can't wait to see Army at Fouts...it will be a GREAT time...like the Navy game in 2007. Except this time UNT beats the service academy! I will say again and again...UNT needs to schedule the service academies...Navy, Army, Air Force...every time they can...and as often in Denton as possible. These guys recruit heavy in the metroplex and they bring fans...but most of all...THEY WILL PLAY IN DENTON!!!! and, to a pretty much full house too!

GO UNT! BEAT ARMY!!!! (and anyone else for that matter...UNT needs some wins)

With the above schedule if we do not go bowling next year, then we are in some serious trouble.

Unless we make it a bowl game.
