I know this is hoops but have to say something about North Texas....drove up to the Cotton Bowl and got to see the Mean Green give it to UNLV....we sat in the 5th or 6th row right behind the UNLV bench...not sure if the TV shows it but NT was hitting so hard...UNLV players were hurting..in the 2nd half the UNLV OL was sucking wind..my best bet of the year was a second half play...I was going to try to go online with my phone but the sun was blocking my screen....anyway North Texas wins its 3rd bowl game in 100 years...NT coach Dan Mc....gets soaked with Gatorade....after the game...

I've been a member of that site for almost a decade and Box (the quoted poster) has always been a big Mean Green supporter. Lots of good handicappers on MadJacks. I don't post much there anymore, but still skim the forums as it's a great site for game info and general opinion from experienced handicappers.

Interesting...I'd wanted to nickname our defense "tap out" (or somesuch) because it always seemed they had a way of wearing down opposing offenses - the results of which were evident in the 6.5 2nd half pts/gm on the season.

Hadn't sat behind the opposition's bench, though, to see the physical impact for myself.

I also sat behind their bench and we eere making the same comments

of how the UNLV players looked on and off the field from the middle

of the 3 rd qtr on during the game, A UNLV fan setting around us stated he

hadn't seen hitting like that all year.

      So sick of the crap this football program slings us

      For sure. I think you'll always have some issues that will be attacked. I think you'll also, with any staff, have some issues that are just tendencies and won't go away. The former, we know that Morris is trying a new DC The latter, for example, I'm not holding my breathe for the QB under center any time soon.

      Should we add Texas State to the AAC?

      After the bowl, I’m of the opinion that we should have Texas State on the schedule for an annual home and home series, even if we aren’t in a conference with them. It was a great atmosphere. School is close. Large public Texas institution. Fans are fun and also like to party. What is not to like?

      A troll? I have been a fan, including student and alumni, since 1965. Think you've got me mistaken with someone else. 1. Do that every year. 2. Shirt giveaway for last night's retro night. They called it "Retro Night" and did nothing retro other than give out t's to the first 500 fans. How did they market that? Email to alumni and ticket holders three or four days prior. 3. Do people really look at the schedule and decide that frisbee dogs will make them attend? 4. Denton student day. I am assuming you are referencing the 11am tip-off women's game that, by nature of the tip time, limits attendance to those students. Sorry, I see a lack of creativity and effort because they were doing these same things in the mid 70's when I attended as a kid. I am well aware that we don't choose the announcers. Not by point. Do I think they provided them with incorrect information? Nope, that topic was probably never addressed in the production meeting, but someone from the department should be monitoring the broadcast to correct stupid comments like the one mentioned last night and referenced above. He was complimentary of UNT during the broadcast, but he pulled that "fact" out of his ass and someone should be there to correct them.

      Should we add Texas State to the AAC?

      Adding Texas State feels like such an easy call to me. It would be good for attendance and give our fans another easy road game.
