I don't miss hearing "Eye of the Tiger" over and over. "Fly Like an Eagle" is a masterpiece in comparison.

At least Patrick Cobbs is in the NFL as well as DeAngelo Williams.

From the looks of the camera shots it seemed like Memphis was playing a home game. Looked like we were vastly outnumbered :thumbsd:

Not significantly. North Texas fans showed up in good numbers at each of our NO Bowl opportunities.

How could that be the very first play run?

The first play in the video, which is NT with 3rd and 5. DD gives up and runs it to the short side of the field for no gain and Bazaldua hammers a 47 yard FG that would have been good from 57. Why don't you take a shot down the field? Then again, DD probably figured they had watched hours of film on us and were expecting a draw!

Our passing game and more importantly our down field passing game mainly worked off play action in Coach Dickey's offense. 3rd and 5 isn't a strong down for that. That's basically no mans land for us.

It was a little crazy on the field watching a draw on 3rd and long but I will be damned if it didn't work every now and then.

I look back on that and remember how close we were to a 10 win season it just hurts. Still one of the previous posts was absolutely right, the North Texas faithful came out in good numbers everytime for the bowl game. Cant wait to finally go back this year! Or maybe next.....but soon!

Booger, Awasom, Cardwell, Spencer, and Pearl all played at some level of pro football off of that defense.

Hurd and Don McGee too if I remember right.
