This is going to be a challenge... I am trying to get friends and family to come out... The answer I keep getting is Ohio State/USC(battle of the wish we were you programs).

I say use your freakin Tivo and get out to Denton!

I say we crack 25k. Good times when the cool aid flows so much last night that it causes a hangover!

Cuh Caaawwww..... Then again, I might still be drunk from last night.

So many variables in my attendance models... can't imagine the season ticket sales improved over last year...

sticking with 25k. nothing like winning a season opener to open some eyes. I honestly can't remember what that is like... usually we have been drilled by 50 already before we play our first home game. THIS IS AWESOME. 25k 25k 25k...yup, I'm still drunk.

I also think we'll get something up in the direction of 25k. Although Ohio may not exactly be a storied program, "Ohio" is a little bit of a name team, and our fickle fans tend to turn out well for "name" teams.

The season ticket sales improved last night - I think there is probably a group of season ticket holders from last year that decided not to purchase this year until after the first game to see how this team looks, that are today purchasing. I also think you have the casual football fan in Denton that reads about and goes to a game or two ever so often, that is reading the paper this morning and thinking about attending next week. I just threw my initial number up having no idea what or how many will show.

I'm predicting a BIG win against Ohio, but my crystal ball is telling me to wait until Sunday to finalize my prediction.

Yeah there are alot of people looking for a seat on the bandwagon.

My non-student friend last night: 'Hey so what's UNT's schedule this year? I think I'd like to go to a college game this year. Check it out. See what its all about.'

LOL. Definitely 25K. Guess I can't just show up five min before game time and get a good seat in the stoodent section huh?

A week is a long time before rain can be determined for sure

Let's say about 24,000

If this was a local team we were playing we could reach 30,000.....

UNT's big win is creating alot of buzz, so hopefully this will in turn result in an attendance boost.

I say the New student turnout will propel us into 25K range... The bandwagoners will help, do you guys think their is still a strong southlake resident support? Or have they moved on from the Dodge era.

      And the biggest key is administrative support, which UNT clearly lacks. Our Board of Trustees has aligned the university to pursue athletics to support the academic mission of the school and we're all pulling the same direction.

      Around the League / UNT Opponents

      basically heading into December, I think this is a pretty good way to look at the league, KenPom through 12/1 games in (): Tier 1 - Memphis (31) - I know everyone will be quick to point out their collapse last season...I suppose it could happen again, but this team looks built different. they'll head into December ranked while presumably no one else will even receive a vote. Tier 2 - UNT(66) ; Wichita State (88) - both schools have quality wins over Big 10, WCC, A-10 and MVC schools...nothing really to blink at too much in their losses. Tier 3A - Rice (164) ; East Carolina (123) - call this the over-achieving tier. Rice has a good win now over ASU...hung tough with Florida State. ECU has yet to play an actual road game and their loss looks pretty mid, but 7-1 is 7-1 so far. Tier 3B - FAU (105) ; UAB (137) - call this the under-achieving tier. FAU look like Memphis last season...a solid collection of talent that isn't playing as a team...case in point, they went 52-26 to lose by 2 to FGCU. I don't know what to make of UAB. still, despite early struggles, both these will be tough Ws Tier 4 - Temple (114) ; South Florida (138) - both just look solid if unremarkable. both have some testers in December and it'd be a big benefit to the conference if they can pick up some good wins. Tier 5 - Tulane (226) ; Charlotte (204) ; Tulsa (215) ; UTSA (263) - there's very little to like here. nothing approaching a quality win and each with some pretty bad loses. I almost just made a separate tier for UTSA, but I'll be kind for now since the resumes here all look so similar. UTSA goes to Cali to play St. Mary's Tuesday and then to Fayetteville for ranked Arkansas on Saturday (who made their schedule?)...so once they get drubbed by 30 in each, maybe they'll earn their own tier

      SMU got the death penalty because they were incredibly stupid back then. When the NCAA announced new cheating rules in 1985 that included the death penalty as the most severe potential punishment, SMU responded by phasing out payments to players instead of ending them immediately. At least one of those players got kicked off the team and spilled the beans in a TV interview. Now SMU thinks it deserves revenge because it was told not to piss on an electrified fence and did it anyway. Mustang nation would be smarter to leave the past in the past and enjoy the run they're on.

      SMU's upturn started two years before NIL opened up. The biggest key is the free transfer rules amd the strategy to go after local players at top programs to come home for more playing time, to help out baby momma, etc. NIL definitely amped it up. But we aren't money whipping alone. We have a big time payroll but we aren't in the A&M/Ohio St/etc universe. The money just removes the golden handcuffs of under the table money that was keeping them at top programs (especially OL and DL). ACC membership is huge too. UNT could be running some of this playbook, BTW. More than enough DFW players looking to get on the field.

      Running game

      Yeah, but the guy has been coaching at Incarnate Word and North Texas… That’s not exactly Georgia and Alabama. Almost all coaches would be below .500 against FBS competition at Incarnate Word and North Texas. Especially operating under the rule sets Eric Morris has been operating under with the resources at his disposal. Unless something crazy happens, he is going to get three seasons. You might as well enjoy the ride. A bowl victory this year followed by an 8 or 9 win season and Morris is suddenly looking pretty good. You guys are turning off the movie before finding out if the good guy wins.
