If our QB situation gets fixed, able to settle down and clean the crap out of their shorts, we should be fine. We will have soft classical music they can come out to next week.

But let's also remember that Texas is not Baylor and this is not your grandpa's Baylor team. Make no mistake, Baylor is better than Texas this year

I think our defense will do good, but we had some tackling issues last night that we need to fix.

Agreed, our d and special teams play was surprisingly good considering the amount of new personnel. I'm sure I'm not alone but Akunne is so overrated. The d as a whole was impressive though.I love the play of both Jones, Lee and thank god we have Buyers that walked on! They had some fire and fight in them, excited to play the game.

Baylor is getting a lot of pressure bringing 3 or 4 guys at a time. SMU's line sucks.

Yes, because they have some really highly recruited corners playing this year. Reid, #9, is a shut down corner. This allows your linebackers to pursue

I was looking for akunne to make some big plays and looked for him on replays. He did not have a good game and was blocked most of the time. He was hesitant and not explosive. Good thing we dont face a team this talented again this year.

He was not horrible though. Just thought he would step it up.

Exactly, sits back, waits too long which allows him to get blocked. Needs to attack the football, his speed hurts him tremendously. Having fast linebackers is key at this level. Orr was a great LB Edited by MeanGreen01

It's now the end of the 3rd and they have lost 3 net yards. SMwho has 43 total offensive yards. My guess is that Baylor will call the dogs off in the 4th and create some throwing room for Burcham.

Ha, those days are over. If Baylor want to make the Final Four they are going to have to crush everyone because their schedule is already shaky.

Up 38 with six minutes left Baylor just went for and converted a 4th and 9.

      I believe we have had more games without classes in session. If someone has the academic calendar handy for this year and last, I can work up the exact numbers. Knowing we would have more games played during the academic break (and the horrible slate of games the AD put together) is exactly why it was critical for the AD to work extra hard getting the surrounding community to the games. I live too far away to know if they've done anything, but based on the results, I don't know if they have...certainly nothing that's moved the needle. It's like they just take time off when students aren't around. We need the so-called t-shirt fans from in and around Denton. What has the AD done to generate excitement and stimulate demand for the program? Whatever it is, it's been a complete failure IMHO. We have a team and program on the rise. It's WINNING games on a regular basis. Based on the last few years, we had a lot of momentum going into this season and it's been squandered in epic fashion. I doubt they are doing anything and just running out the clock waiting for the students to return so they can continue to do nothing. Here's an idea...It seems Jared enjoys his court-side seat. How about running a "switch seats with the AD" promotion? Each half one lucky attendee is drawn and gets to sit court-side and Jared moves to the cheap seats. Who knows, maybe you only get a handful of extra tickets out of it, but we're moving in the wrong direction.

      We have the volume, just nobody cultivating those relationships. Seems Denton proper feels little to no ownership in the university even though it's a large driver of the local economy. As @UNTLiferccommented, things like the homecoming parade have disappeared. They've made every move necessary to make the school and the city separate entities.

      I'm not pissing on anyone, but maybe Nelson, who was a 5 star coming out of high school, was overrated. He's just looking for playing time, which I can certainly appreciate, but UTEP is heralding his signing as being the best in their history. I'm saying is there is a reason he didn't stick at previous places and was probably doesn't have that high of a rating now.

      Should we add Texas State to the AAC?

      Those qualities may be fine for us, but nor for ECU or Charlotte or USF, etc. There is no way they want another Texas school in the AAC. They would rather have Ga State, or Jax St., or James Madison, or App St, or WKU. Also, a 16-18 team conference gets too big. It needs to stay 12-14 football/basketball members at most.
