I am actually a fan of all the Michigan school since I have family all over Michigan. And I particularly hate Troy, but since UNT will get some money out of this game if Troy wins, then Go TROJANS....

Troy should win this one, wonder why this game is being played so late in the bowl season.

the first two commercials from the schools that i saw made me laugh. troy focused on athletics with demarcus ware and the cowboys, while cmu focused on academics and all the wonderful programs that are available at their school. to me, that commercial told me a lot about troy and why you should go to their school, certainly not for academics. what did you think?

I question Troy's play calling to end the half. They took all 3 timeouts with them into the locker room and didn't take a single shot downfield. Why not get the clock down to under :10 and go bombs away?

Not being a spelling or grammar Nazi. Lord knows I make my mistakes. But, this is funny.

Can the announcers focus on this game and shut the hell up about the Texas/Alabama game?

REally! I feel like I'm listening to the UT-'Bama pre game show. Who cares about Gordon Shipley and McCoy!!!

Man, Troy is getting the shaft. CMU's TD shouldn't have counted as the ball didn't look like it crossed the goal line before the player was down. Then on 3rd and 10 prior to Troy's attempt to tie with a field goal the defender ran right through the WR, no call.

BS.

It's a good thing Troy didn't need that call. Tied game, overtime. Maybe the announcers will get interested in this game now?

Why didn't they name this the "Dan LeFevour Fairwell Bowl"? Good grief.

ya, they are on lefevour's nuts like a fat chic on a buffet! damn...it is sad since levi brown has been a fabulous quarterback for his career.

That non-call was terrible. The defender mugged him.

      True Freshmen Receiving Seasons - Coleman, Sides, Young

      In 2009 Darius Carey had a standout true freshman season racking up 509 receiving yards. Not sure what the record was before that but here are the top true freshmen seasons in terms of receiving yards since, by my research: 378 - Miles Coleman 2024 363 - Landon Sides 2023 295 - Wyatt Young 2024 281 - Jaelon Darden 2017 253 - Carlos Harris 2012 240 - Deonte Simpson 2019 151 - Darvin Kidsy 2013 146 - Tyler Wilson 2016 97 - Rico Bussey 2016 These guys on our roster are in really good company being atop some real ballers on this list. NFL guys, 1,000 yard seasons, etc. Two takeaways here are that you can make an impact early here, especially at receiver, and that even in the transfer portal it’s still important to sign top high school talent as they seems to be the guys more likely to remain loyal when they otherwise would have good stock in the transfer portal/NIL market.

      Just because the “we’re gonna get our asses kicked by TxSt.” crowd was wrong doesn’t make it a moral victory.

      Seth Littrell

      PLEASE DON’T read this as an endorsement of Morris or defense of the current AD. But facts are facts. 2 Conference Championship appearances in 7 years in a weaker CUSA. The last appearance was with a 7-5 record. And had CUSA not abolished divisions we would have finished 2nd place to UTSA and not gotten the chance to get beaten by them again. Morris has just completed year 2 and he is dealing with transfer portal and NIL. So calling the team less competitive is a very subjective metric as you are applying it comparing Morris vs Littrell. Seth Littrell 2nd season was great. But there was no real improvement after that season and he finessed that into 2 contract extensions and the highest head coach salary in CUSA for a while. Those decisions were made by his predecessor. It is absolutely ridiculous that a thread titled “Seth Littrell” exists on a UNT forum when he is now an unemployed OC whose Oklahoma team performed better after he was fired.
