  1. I have read a couple of posts from fans disappointed about playing Army in the bowl game. Instead of slamming you as a disloyal, out of touch fan, I would like to take a shot at reason: - Bowl attendance = program power. Last years HOD bowl brought in 20,229. Our last game there we brought 40K and they were all ours. That was a powerful showing for us and likely the main reason we got invited back again at 5-7. Another good bowl showing will really make a statement that could help us infinitely in the future. - This is only the 9th bowl game in the history of the North Texas football program, a history which goes back to 1913. If you care about the program you certainly want to be able to say you were able to attend when they played in a bowl. - Recruiting -- we will most certainly have some key DFW area recruits at this game and a good crowd will help us in regards to landing them. - City of Dallas -- we are trying to build ties into the city, and having another good crowd at the Cotton Bowl venue and Fair Park will only build on that. - Seth Littrell is only the 2nd UNT coach in all time to have a bowl team in his 1st season as coach. The last one was Odus Mitchell. We need to show him our support as he is only going to continue to build this team into the program we have hoped for. - It's a cheap date! Most fans have to get hotel, flights etc to follow their teams to bowl games. This is a game you can easily drive to if you live in the area. These are just some of the reasons and I am sure there are many more. GMG
