I see billboards up across the Metroplex for the Duck Commander NASCAR race in Ft Worth. It appears they are pushing the Duck COMMANDER name which they own over the Duck Dynasty name that the Discovery Channel owns.
At least people might talk about the Independence Bowl rather than completely ignore it!
Duck Commander is the name of their company. Has been since the early 70's.
You people should try reading up on folks rather than just making fun of them.

ThisI want a SOW mini helmet to add to my collection.

40 miles max is what I heard was being predicted. Anyone know if they ever got the brakes finally fixed? It's been three months.

Doubtful. Missed most of the football season. Brake issues on a car that isn't really driven…..just …parked. Poor car need better owners.

Are they ever?

I think Brock Berglund is gone. I don't think McCarney likes Berglund. He will transfer to a D-AA school where he can play right away.

This would have never happened if we had hired Shaun Forrest. The team wanted him, he knew the system and had the momentum. Instead he is coaching at Western Kentucky and doing well. Shaun wanted this job in the worst way. We messed up.

We are the home team but ESPN wants us on the visiting sideline because they will be filming from the home side. We will likely be bringing a lot more fans than UNLV. It will make the stadium look more full as the visiting sideline will be in most of the shots.

I bought 11
We bought 7 from the UNT site. No problem.

That can't be good on the turf to scrape that ice off and I would also think it would pull up a lot of the bbs with the ice too. Seems like it would have been a lot better to let it melt.
With two to three inches of ice on the field, there is no way it was going to melt before the game at 3pm. I'm sure we have buckets of the rubber pellets to replace the ones that may be scooped up with ice removal.

I've been to one bowl game in my life in San Diego and they must certainly sold beer. But this being Texas and whatnot, I'm curious.
It's a work night anyway so won't be hitting anything hard.
Cotton Bowl usually sells Beer at the events. There were Beer sales at the Heart of Dallas Classic earlier in the year. I expect the same for our game.

I've often said Coach Mac reminds me of DD. There is one big difference though, Mac understands PR better and puts a lot of effort into being charismatic and handling the media well.
Good job Coach Mac.
I think DMAC is the polar opposite of DD. He is media friendly, a great ambassador for the univerisity and has the support of the AD. DD, not so much.

I'm happy with the opponent. We have a great shot at dominating in this game. We will be the only DFW team playing and looking good doing it. I'd rather win the HOD in convincing fashion than get blown out by Michigan or some other traditional power. If that happened then the local coverage would be about how we didn't belong there and the HOD committee should have picked someone else.
I think our current matchup sets up well for us.

how do we buy tickets? Will they be offered to season ticket holders first?
There is link in the story above. Purchase them directly from the athletic department.

Isn't/wasn't Dodge at Pitt. If so, lol, bring it.
TD is now the HC at Marble Falls High School. Left Pitt after one season.

I bet our boys are wishing we had an indoor facility right about now..
After the UTSA game, I think they couold use some cold weather practice. The cold really seemed to hurt the offense.

Liberty Bowl would be a great honor. It's an older bowl with history. Memphis is an easy drive from here so attendance should be solid.
Heart of Dallas is a great second choice, but most people have never heard of the Heart of Dallas Bowl.

Figured I wasn't the only one!
Yep. Can't sleep. Thinking about how important this game is.
-
They do?
Or they did, a handful of times four years ago, and only after their own practice facility collapsed and their domed stadium was otherwise booked?
Edit: Serious question. If they're still going there, I'm not aware and I'd like to know.
Yes, they still use it. The Cowboys have not re-built the facility that collapsed.

The WBAP morning show was discussing this a well saying on Friday they think we will make it to a bowl an it would be great for the fans if we were in the HOD bowl. One of the guys is TCU's George Dunham.
that would be Hal Jay. he has been a longtime supporter of the frogs.

Where do you live/family: Denton Married to another UNT Grad - 3 kids
Degree/Year attended/graduated UNT: 1997 Bachelor of Arts in Technical Theater - should have been class of 1995, but was in no hurry to leave.
Favorite NT Memory: shooting the flute section of the band with Boomer at a football game in 1993
Favorite NT Sports Memory: The move to D-1 A football. We worked hard to get the word out and find enough fans to get 15,000 at each game.

I can't watch anymore. If we didn't have the talent, I could stick around. Knowing what we have and seeing what we are doing with it is just embarrassing.

Coach Benford does not have the heart and soul of this team like Coach Jones did. I have spoke with several of the players and they still wish Coach Forrest had been hired. He was like a father to these guys. Benford doesn't have that relationship with the team. Jones brought in guys who had troubled pasts or had no father figures. The Old coaching staff filled that void for these guys. Until Benford understands what makes these guys tick, he won't be able to motivate them or bring them together. Rick V hired the wrong guy if he wanted to capitalize on the talent that was already here.

I've been to every home game since 1990. Not sure how many that is.
I've seen a lot of bad football in those years. A few bright spots along the way.
Hoping for a great year again this year.
