If you had DII/III, FCS, G5 and P4 playoffs all going on at the same time, sports media and ESPN would be all about the P4 playoffs....just like they are now for the CFP. I'm already sick of the hype for it and the blandness of it.
"Yuuup. The only thing I have to say about this and have been saying about it is.... basketball."
It implies to me that you are advocating for basketball as "the sport" at UNT. That either means defunding football or dropping down or eliminating it...which really is all the same.
Basketball at UNT is good now, but we are only a coaching change or injuries/transfers away from it being not good.
I think the die hards feel this way, but the casuals are different. A win could garner more interest for next season.
We’re the only game in the Friday time slot, we’re on ESPN, and we’re before the Mayo Bowl. The potential is there.
This is EM’s first bowl game. I’m excited for a different result. I don’t need the points…I’m taking North Texas to win outright!
I get the culture part of it, but it isn't as big of a thing as some make it out to be. Look at UTSA as a prime example. They had consistent winning before this last year and it increased their attendance.
And there is no way you can tell me their game day experience is better than ours. They don't even have their own stadium!
