Anybody?

Quoner and I will be in College Station for the A&M game, and I'll be in Houston with my girlfriend for the afternoon game with Rice... And then an evening of musical theater. :wacko:

If it somehow works out, I still owe you a beer or two, provided you don't punch me in the face on site.

I'm somewhat interested in making the trek over to College Station for this game.

Do it. I'll buy you Kram's beer.

It turns out that the reason our game is at 2pm is because Rice is hosting a women's BB tournament Fri & Sat nights:

RiceOwls.com

I called their ticket office the other day, just getting to post about it now... You can buy tickets online, call 713-522-OWLS, or obviously buy them at the door. Sections 111/211 are behind the visitor's bench (click the "buy" link above), so 211 will be the place to be. Parking in West lot 4 is free. Just enter "Rice University" in Google maps, you'll see where the lot is and where "Tudor Fieldhouse" (formerly Autry Court) is.

It would have been great to have a tailgate or other alumni get-together planned, but we could still meet before the game somewhere in Rice Village. Apparently the list of restaurants in that link is out of date, but I believe most of the places are still there. I'm going to suggest Texadelphia, since I know some of y'all are bringing your kids. Who's in?

I also saw on my DISH guide that the A&M game is on Fox Sports SW, so those of us in Houston who can't take off from work on Monday afternoon to drive to College Station can still see the game, not to mention everyone in D/FW.

Was looking forward to the Rice game, but wouldn't you know it, conflicts with a trip to Dallas of all places and I can not get out of it. I can't even make a game when I'm in Dallas. Ugh. I might be able to pull the TAMU trip.

I'll be in Houston with the wife but unsure if I can talk her into going to the game.

For those looking for food, I would suggest either Collina's Italian Cafe or D'Amico's Italian Market & Cafe. Collina's is my favorite Italian Restaurant when I'm in the Rice area. Friends have told me that D'Amico's is also very good.

Do it. I'll leer at you awkwardly while you drink KRAM's beer that Quoner bought you.

Never happen...Quoner won't show. If he does....make him buy you two beers and make him take a drink out of both first before you dare drink from the cup...just saying........... :lol:

Meanwhile... I'm at every basketball game.

But does MY phone ever ring? Nooooo.... It's all about how Quoner won't show up and say hello. :cry:

For those coming to the game at Rice with their kids - I was just checking their web site to make sure the game wasn't cancelled given the snow & freezing weather down here, and a video starts running on the right side of the screen promoting the game:

Kids who bring a report card with an "A" on it get in free - "Bring your A game"

Me and about 7 or 8 other SigEps are making the trip tomorrow afternoon.

Not expecting a win, but hopefully we keep it close.

Interesting note: It will be the first UNT football or basketball game any of us have attended outside of the DFW area.

You guys have any plans on going to the Sun Belt Tournament in Hot Springs? It's a great time and I highly recommend it.

      If I was Coach Hodge, I would have this blown up and posted in the locker room. I would tell the players that this is what people think of you and we need to go out and dominate every team defensively until people start putting some respect on our name. Then when people do start to put some respect on our name, we need to dominate teams some more to leave no doubt.

      Some are arguing on their board about who's better between Yale and UNT. They really can't get past the UNT loss. I really want to get poporn and make an account just to let them know we've finished higher than MN in NET every year since 2020.

      Caponi fired

      I think this is a cop-out. He’s been doing this crap since the beginning of his tenure. The first memorable time was against Navy last year on the first drive of the game from the 1. If in the 5th game of year 1 he was already feeling like he needed to score every drive because of the defense, that's an even bigger problem. I think not having a reliable kicker or punter is the main problem. He went for the points a few times early this season and it didn't work out. Same with some punts that just don't do a good job at flipping the field. I've mentioned in other threads that special teams has also been a problem. Evans is 89th in the country in average punt yardage. We have to have a short kicker and a long kicker. Who the eff does that at this level? That's two coordinators that Morris flopped out on. I'm just waiting on us to move on from Svobada at season's end. Was looking over his profile and I didn't know but he also has Tight Ends this year. Where have the Tight Ends been lately??
