Varsity

Took the words right offa my keyboard.

Hyperbole. The Cotton Bowl is not that bad of a place to watch a football game.

You left out Vidal Carlin.

"Dodge Glue." That's a good one.

Uhhhhhhhh ohhhhhhh. Longhorn Nation will be in revolt.

Bitching about refs is bush league BS.

HAW! Great stuff! My compliments to the perpetrators.

"We used to suck a lot, but our chicks were always hot ..." Har-de-har-har. That was pretty funny.

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWLLLLLLLL!

I would like to see North Texas play a Mid-American Conference team like Ohio, Central Michigan or Miami-Ohio

Thank you for Mean Green World. Thank you very much.

Nice to let the fans have a say, but the selection is between a big douche and a turd sandwitch ... ... or Republicans and Democrats?

I never miss a visit to Recycled Books when I'm in town.

I would add Italy versus anyone in WWII.

If I were the NCAA Czar I would go back to single platoon football, limited substitution and add the "rouge point."

In a reseach paper I did in college long ago, I used the victory over the Gators as proof that UNT played some of the big boys back in the old days. He wrote over it: "Back then UF was an SEC bottom feeder."

A close up of a piece of the 1984 football media guide:

Daniel has something the Tate kid does not -- character. I love the part about him putting the Perilloux kid in his place, that is classic.

Used to see Willie Parker in the grocery store when I was growing up. Didn't realize he played all the way to 1980. His pro career was longer than my entire playing years.

I think that happened late in the third quarter after Arkansas went up 17-0. NT drove to the Hog one but failed to score.

Yeah, Leo Taylor fumbled the ball away at the Razorback two-yard-line on the opening drive of the game. But NT scored two TDs in the 4th quarter. Mike Gattis missed the PAT kick on the first, making it 17-9 Hogs. Two plays after the KO, Ark's QB lateraled wide and Ret Little recovered the ball for NT at the Razorback 26. From the 15 Steve Ramsey passed to Barry Moore for the TD. Down 17-15 NT went for the bonus point and missed with a bad pitch. So there were several missed opportunities in that one. Photos: Looking back at the 1968 schedule, the Mean Green beat a very good Cincinnati team that had Greg Cook at Qb, Jim O'Brien and Tom Rossley at WR. Not bad.

For a measuring stick on just how good those NT teams were, the 1968 squad came very close to upsetting Arkansas in Fayetteville, losing by 17-15. Very controvercial call in that contest and a fumbled pitch on a two-point try and we would have tied the Razorbacks who went on to beat Georgia in the Sugar Bowl and post a 10-1-0 season. THAT is a Mean Green team that should have gone to some bowl, fer sure.

Man, I remember Ronnie Arrow when he was winning titles at San Jacinto JC!
