Unfortunately it doesn't sound like we will be getting a "big name" opponent...at least in the mind of people down here...whoever the opponent is we just need to win.

Same could be said about us from the other fan base

Especially after being off the bowl map for a decade which in modern era is light years

We need to show up reguardless who we play

I would like to see either Syracuse or Pittsburgh. They are both big, physical teams that can wear you down but I think we could hold our own against either. Pittsburgh has been in a lot of good games with quality opponents so it would be a major challenge. Same with Syracuse and they beat up Tulane pretty good. Hopefully our speed could neutralize (somewhat) their size. Looking forward to the game whoever the opponent is. Just glad to be in a bowl!

They may not be a juggernaut right now, but I'd still consider Pitt a pretty big name - especially if we're trying to get lots of average Joe and Jane Alumni to come that don't follow the standings every year. A recognizable opponent will help with that...maybe not at the top of our wish lists, but in order to get disconnected alumni and fans involved, just about any of the names recently mentioned - Pitt, Syracuse, or BC - would help with that goal. It may not be a "strong" win in the eyes of the experts, but for our purposes, any of these should serve fairly well as we continue to build under Mac.

I think any of those Eastern schools would be great for the exposure we would get in those power markets. We would get some good eyeballs from cities such as New York, Pittsburgh or Boston if any of those schools were chosen, and we were to of course.

I think having two Cowboys on the sidelines in Dorsett and Dunbar would be pretty awesome if it could be worked out. First let's get the bowl bid and then work like heck to bring the house in attendance over the next 3 weeks.

      A few HSO's

      I was kind of hoping this HSO thread would help me get over the hump and renew the two season tickets I’ve had since the days of dirt at Fouts Field and the old cement urinals there. Unfortunately I, probably like some others, can’t seem to generate any old fashioned enthusiasm for the new version of “ here today gone tomorrow, pass through jocks . Somehow there just seems to be a missing piece; commitment, loyalty, alma mater. Yesterday’s discarded intangibles. Well, today is deadline day, can I break an old habit?

      If…..

      I gave you a +1, but I also suspect he would not get along with the Grants and Ross's of our world. Would be loads of fun and wins, though.

      Best BBQ in each Texas college football town

      For anyone who hasn't experienced the greatness of Hutchins, you should treat yourself the next time you are in either Frisco or McKinney. Some of the best brisket I've had (and other good stuff too). And... since UNT has expanded into Frisco, I guess we can claim Hutchins as a UNT BBQ place 😎

      A few HSO's

      There’s no contradiction. The average fan/alumni aren’t paying NIL, it’s the big donors and corporations. And they’re only doing it because that’s the way it is under the current, broken system. My 2nd point is that comparing college coaches with college players is neither a fair nor equal comparison.

      No Way Jose! Just the opportunity for him to get out of Jersey is payment enough!
