Legit chance to be 6-1 headed into the Rice game.

Interesting.

Note to CUSA: STOP TRYING TO MAKE THAT CRAPHOLE IN SAN ANTONIO OUR RiVALS!!!

Also, for the 1st time in recent memory, we are not playing a home game on Texas-OU weekend (thankgod!)

We play at UAB on 10/11.

love the UTSA game is last!! How'd we get to dodge Marshall again? Looks like Southern Miss is moving west. Our two east games are in Florida -- not too shabby!

I actually like the UTSA rivalry, let it happen, if we do not like then have the Coach go out to beat the snot out of them rather than playing conservative not to lose football, causing a loss.

Really only 3 good home games: SMU *DUH*, La Tech, and USM due to name.

Could care less about Nicholls or the FU's, why could we not get a New Mexico State or hell even Idaho again would be better than Nicholls.

Nicholls will hurt our strength of schedule but i think smu and indiana will help balance that out a little bit. i honestly believe that if this team keeps working and improving like they have been, UNT could be in for some national recognition this year!!! im feeling a conference championship and maybe even a national ranking... clearly im really optimistic about things!

Will definitely be making the UTSA trip. Possibly the UT game as well.

im trying to figure out how to make the UT game from Louisville... gonna be tricky on a GA stipend but i cant miss it... my girl is a UT alumna so i gotta be there to rub it in just in case we win!!! might make the trip up to indiana as well, its only about 1:45 to 2 hours away!

Love that there are 6 Denton games. A couple preferences: both FL schools can't be home or away every season. IMO, if they cannot alternate then they should spread them out across the season schedule. That Apogee schedule has "meh" all over November and beyond. And if SMiss doesn't get their act together, to me it is terrible after September!

The consolation is that Rice/UTSA are drivable, and the first 4 games are fantastic.

Overall, things get a little bit better year after year. It's just hard to put together an ideal slate that will please everyone.

as long as we win it doesn't matter who we play at home. JUST KEEP WINNING

Of course it matters. If you spend hundreds of dollars on Apogee season tickets, you want to know who you're playing and you want to see a healthy, fair rotation.

I love it!! A great schedule for a team on the rise! Bowl eligible should be no problem (man it feels nice to be able to say/think that). UTSA as a rival... sure why not? They came to our house last year and took the Division Championship right from our hands (and didn't even win it themselves). Perhaps when we meet this year the meeting will be for the goods again and we can give them a taste of their own medicine. GO MEAN GREEN!!!

Does playing an FCS team count as a win towards bowl eligibility? If it doesn't why would we waste our time with them? Either way I'm happy not to play FCS teams.

Yes, it does. I think the catch is that you can only count 1 win against FCS opponents towards your bowl eligibility per year. I think the other catch is that you can't count an FCS win towards your bowl eligibility in back to back years. So scheduling an FCS opponent in 2015 may not be in the cards. A lower rated FBS opponent like Idaho would be preferable anyways, for bringing a team in for one game.

2014 will be my first year as a student at North Texas. I was already excited when I got accepted, but in the mix of the football team's rise: it makes me more restless! I wish I could have attended the Heart of Dallas Bowl, but plan on attending every home game. Plus, I wouldn't mind taking trips to Austin, Houston and San Antonio.

As for the "rivalry" with UTSA, I hope it happens. I have a friend who will be attending UTSA and still hasn't let me forget the Roadrunners cost North Texas a berth in the Conference USA Championship Game.

We have two Mean Green Matts now?

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I saw USF up in the 3rd quarter, but didn't get to see the OT. Any news during the game about if Hawaii will get a new stadium too? I was sad to hear the Aloha Bowl was in such bad shape a couple years ago and it had to be abandoned.

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I’m there with you as one of the few that watched it. I actually didn’t start watching until about 6 minutes left in the 4th quarter, but still got my money’s worth.

      Myrtle Beach Bowl

      I guess few saw the five overtime slugfest in Honolulu. Oh well I did and it was a blast of a game. Spartans roaring back for Coach Niumatalolo who lost his father last week. A native Hawaiian who played for UH, took his team to the Arizona Memorial for remembrance. Battling it out against a team traveling over 4,600 miles, further than any team this season including that game in Ireland 🇮🇪. That bounce in field goal to send the game into OT as the 4th quarter expired was awesome. A team building, bringing a new stadium to our league, a team seeking consecutive bowl wins after some dire years. Yeah I was one of the few that watched it. Love the storylines and shots of my old island home. It was historic. The most OT’s in bowl history Oh yeah and our conference is 3-1 in the bowl challenge. American rising. GMG

      Dave Fleming New Volleyball Coach

      This is a very surprising pick. Frankly,I don't get it; a very veteran coach; who has coached at the same D2 school forever almost. Why would this coach even be considered a good fit at NT? A .68% winning D2 coach who has apparently never coached at a higher level. Is NT cost cutting? I hope he is wildly successful, it would be hard to not be an improvement over the previous coach. However, this IMO is a very questionable choice.
