I really don't have a problem with Thunderstuck by ACDC but also enjoyed when they played The Who Won't get Fooled Again. Any suggestions for what we should hear when they are lining up for kickoff in the new palace?

I know I'll be absolutely hated for saying this, but God I wish they would play something other than old "classic" music. Something from this decade would be nice, but none of that radio top 40 crap or whatever it is. Maybe some upbeat modern rock or metal would be nice.

The simple fact is, because we don't really have a long time song/piece we use,you'll get several thousand opinions on what would be the best intro music.

Because I tend to appreciate when schools use some sort of marching band fanfare when teams run onto the field, I'd say something by Hanz Zimmer (who writes the best "macho" action music for films, and the occasional tv show, today).

Maybe something like this...

or this...

Round out the Tank by Mystikal.

I just can't see young kids getting hyped to old people music.

I agree with a previous poster, let's shoot for something that came out this decade.

I want the players to get hyped, not a bunch of middle aged, beer bellied men going bannanas.

I think we should all turn respectfully to face due north as the band plays "The Way We Were" and we stare misty eyed at Fouts across I35E. That our something that get's the crowd going nuts. If the players need a song to get them hyped up for the first game, then they shouldn't be on the field.

So why play music then? Or even the fight song? Music can be a great addition to the moment for any player.

Hell, how about they take requests before each game if there's no point to it???

ACDC TNT updated to UNT something like

UNT we're dynomite,

UNT we'll win the fight.

UNT a power load.

UNT watch us explode.

"No No No never no never no never."

I can't believe I've been sucked into this semi-annual thread again but if ACDC is playing to crank things up I may have to leave. So tired. So old. So annoying.

      Moore Leads UNT to New Year’s Day Victory Over Tulsa

      DENTON, Texas – A season-high 24 points from Jaaucklyn Moore led the UNT women’s basketball team to an 84-78 victory over Tulsa inside The Super Pit on Wednesday. With Kyla Deck unavailable for the game, Moore made her first start since UNT’s win over Northwestern State on Nov. 20. The senior guard delivered by tying her career high at North Texas, matching her 24-point performance against Grambling State last season when she surpassed 1,000 career points. “Jaaucklyn Moore came in and started the game and was huge today,” head coach Jason Burton said. “It starts with what she did offensively, but she had to guard Delanie Crawford in the second half with Desiree Wooten in foul trouble. It was a tremendous game from her with how she played on both sides of the ball.” Moore was an integral part of the Mean Green taking an early lead in the first quarter and never giving it up. North Texas scored the first 12 points of the game, holding Tulsa scoreless for the first 6:04 of the game. However, the Golden Hurricane offense came to life in the second quarter, putting together a 13-2 run behind a pair of 3-pointers from Elise Hill and another one from Crawford. After UNT took a 38-32 lead into halftime, the Mean Green outscored Tulsa 26-16 in the third quarter sparked by a pair of big runs in the period. As the teams traded buckets in a fast-paced game, UNT was able to extend its lead to 16 points early in the fourth quarter and hold on late to improve to 10-4 this season and 2-0 in conference play. North Texas received valuable minutes and performances from several pieces Wednesday, including 18 points from Tommisha Lampkin. Ereauna Hardaway added 13 points and six rebounds, while Aniyah Johnson neared a double double with nine points and seven boards. Despite Crawford leading Tulsa with 22 points, the Mean Green made it tough on the Preseason All-AAC First Team selection, holding her to 9-of-20 overall 2-of-8 from 3-point range. Hill also scored 22 points for the Golden Hurricane with six 3-pointers on the day. North Texas will look to remain unbeaten in the American Athletic Conference when it travels to Memphis on Saturday for a 2 p.m. tip off.

      UNT TEXAS STATE 2025 FIRST RESPONDER BOWL TAILGATING

      Apparently there will be no onsite alcohol purchase option at the tailgate: Mean Green Tailgate Update We’re reaching out with an update about the official UNT Alumni & UNT Athletics Bowl Tailgate at the SERVPRO First Responder Bowl.

Additionally, we’re excited to offer a Revolver Beer Tasting during the tailgate, giving you the chance to enjoy some locally crafted flavors.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to the Mean Green Scholarship Fund at mgsf@unt.edu. We look forward to celebrating with you at the tailgate—Go Mean Green!

      Is Chandler Morris Watching ?

      If I’m one of the seniors (Rod Brown, Texada, Duncan, etc) I wouldn’t want him on our sideline.
