I am already looking ahead to Denver since Arkansas St just lost to them :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: 74-36.

Denver, a team that has yet to score 80 points (306th in nation in scoring/62.4 pts a game).

They will be playing at MTSU next. A team that has the potential to end their retarded 8 game win streak.

IF the MUTS can pull of the victory which i am predicting they can, we have a chance to take possession of the Sun Belt West and never look back going into the SBC Tourny.

We control our own destiny with Denver and for the SBC West...all we have to do is beat them twice. There is a good chance that both us and Denver will lose some other games though...hopefully just Denver. Denver also plays 6 of their last 10 on the road, and there is no way they keep up this pace under those circumstances.

The team that we need someone else to beat is FAU. If we are the only team that beats them (which is not a gaurantee even though we play them at home), they will still win the regular season title. I'm expecting UALR to give FAU a good fight, and maybe even pull off the victory tomorrow afternoon on ESPN2.

Regardless, Denver and their cheesy pictures can suck it.

If the guys play defense they can do anything- after looking at the troy game on the TX channel they are capable of losing half the remaining games if they don't play how they are capable of playing!

Results suck. Unfortunately, Denver's performance in conference hasn't. Like it or not, they are the new favorites to win the West.

I wouldn't go that far. They have only played 2 of 6 conference games on the road so far, and that was a terrible ULM team, and WKU during their funk (that may be starting to subside). They are a perennially bad team on the road. They definitely do have a shot to win the west though.

Not sure I would blame any one team...UNT controls their own destiny. Losing to teams you have more than enough capability to beat is not the best means of doing just that.

Here's to UNT winning out. Truth is we've only lost 4 games. I'll research last time our team has only lost 4 this late into a season. TT is starting again, Johnny has to enforce team rules or let our players know who's the boss no matter how much it hurts UNT's record. TT is a good young man and talented player. Based on this I'm sure TT is back on board and all the other players will be too. Not saying UNT will win out the rest of SBC games, but this team has as good of a chance to accomplish this as any team in the league much less Denver. Denver would have to win out to be a real threat to UNT. My moneys on UNT and not Denver in this regard.

Here's UNT's won/loss record currently and for past couple years at this point in the season.

2010-2011 15-4

2009-2010 12-7

2008-2009 12-7

2007-2008 12-6

Hope my numbers are correct. UNT is having the best season it's had in several years, so lets not rain on UNT's parade yet.

Go Mean Green!!! :thumbsu:

pretty sure the 3 bruthas on that team had their 'brutha-cards' pulled after that photo went out.

i'd say they had their 'hood-passes' cancelled as well but i doubt they ever had one.

the rest of those future congressmen and senators push the hetero limits for sure.....i could easily see one patting a foot in an airport restroom.

You once likened our board to an inside joke that you pretend to get, but in fact goes right over your head. I'd say you're starting to get it. More dahbeed!

I don't care what the Rainbow Nation's Christmas Card looks like, beat them twice and we all but punch our tickets to a first round bye in the SBC tourney, the only thing we cyber space owner/general manager/head coaches need to focus on at this point.

So why can't the "Bruthas" be the future gay senators and the whites be future trailer park Jerry Springer guests??????

there's nothing to stop them from being future foot patters.

as a matter of fact they've already done the most important thing to get them there. they've associated themselves with other future 'stall prowlers'.

one time on the sbc board schools listed their former grads.

the rest of us listed a few guys that had made it in sports. an occasional hottie that had made some pinup. possibly a ceo of pepsico...etc...etc.

but denver's list was a freakin' who's who made up of lawmakers and astronauts and such.

to say they don't fit the 3rd fiddle directional school makeup of the sbc was an understatement.

good riddance to their paper cut offense.

      Another NIL Coaching Casualty

      80,000 fans aren't necessarily the ones footing the bill for NIL, though. The issue with this current model is nobody could go to the games and nobody could watch on TV but player salaries would still be funded by big money boosters. There's no correlation between a team's revenue, or the sport's revenue as a whole, and player salaries/NIL deals. The NFL doesn't work this way. When overall viewership goes up, media deals gain value which increases media distribution to the franchises and raises salary caps with it when new media deals are signed. NFL teams are required to spend 89% of the salary cap over a 4 year span or pay the difference to their players because that money comes from media deals. The teams make most of their money from ticket sales, merchandise sales, and such but those don't pay salaries like they might in the MLB or even NBA which allows for a luxury tax when exceeding the salary cap. For the NCAA to follow a similar model where wins and losses don't matter to "school" salary pools (insane to type), you'd need an NCAA-wide media deal that pays all schools the same and a salary cap that is the same across the board determined by that media deal. I doubt it'll ever happen. We'd be right back at boosters paying players under the table. It's going to have to start with boosters getting spending fatigue to spark change.

      Athletics site shows no more Bowl tickets available?

      https://www.firstresponderbowl.com/tickets/#Fan-Tickets We may have sold out of our allotment, but their website still shows ticket availability.

      Fun bowl games, not quite so fun playoff games. Maybe there's still something to be said for the bowl games after all.

      It will take some time for the fans of these schools to adjust to losing a few games a year when they're in the new "P2" consisting of maybe 40 teams max. However, filling an average 80k stadium for maybe 20 games/wk is only about 1.5M people demanding tickets for each week's game. Out of over 300M people, I suspect they can still keep filling the stands, other than the few days of "dud" games or bad weather. Now, I'm not sure about TV ratings, but there's so many T-shirt fans of these top 40 schools that I think they'll still watch. I hope this greed and the extreme powering of the top few schools ends up biting them in the a$$, but I'm afraid they'll be successful. I don't mind them breaking away, I just wish they'd be forced to give up any relation to the school. Go create a stand-alone semi-pro league independent of the universities. I haven't followed pro sports in decades, but my quick check shows the Cowboys have been varying between 6-9 and 13-3 for the past 20 years with minimal playoff success but from what I hear, they have plenty of demand for tickets, even when they suck. I realize they are a somewhat special team, but then again, so are these P2 teams, so I think the comparison is reasonably legit.

      Lot of fun bowl games so far. Toledo vs Pitt last night was incredible. This was another great game as well.
