  1. If everytime a team that said “we can’t worry about them, we have to worry about ourselves” was bulletin board material.....bulletin board material would lose its luster.
  2. Is Kiffin gonna wear out his welcome there? Bits are fun....as long as you're winning 10-11 games a year...
  3. I said it before the La Tech game. UNT hadn't been tested yet. That concerned me. And then we fell short. That's important because the better team did not win that night. We have since been tested. And we passed the tests. UAB has not been tested. They're gonna get tested on Saturday. And they're not gonna pass. Plus, we're the better team. Prediction on UAB fans' opinions before the game: "Bill Clark is the best coach in Alabama!" Prediction on UAB fans' opinions after the game: "I don't know if Bill Clark is the guy to take us to the next level" We've been tested, they haven't. UNT 41 UAB 17
  4. Glad you're making the trip. We lived there for a couple of years, just moving back in March. Birmingham is a great city. We miss it.
  5. Accuweather says 60% chance with a thunderstorm "around" but evening looks to just be cloudy...
  6. It's why when we play them and people (Vito) refer to them as our "rival" I cringe. Can they do anything that is not half assed?
  7. "Ya'll, I told you they were serious....I wasn't joking....look at this"
  8. Is this the biggest game in the Littrell era? Given everything that's on the line?
  9. See....this is what I'm talking about. Someone is going to take his tweet personally (which I did not by the way) and now there's potential for our AD to get in a twitter spat that does nothing positive for the program... Again: Was he correct? YES Was Twitter the right place to take his opinion? NO I just don't like having this discussion out in public. The potential negative far outweighs the positive. I hope he lets it go and moves on to Rice (which could be the third attendance record broken in the past five games btw)
  10. And Mason Fine has 16 TDs to 1 INT ONE INT
  11. Emmitt, he is absolutely correct. Maybe I’m picking nits here. My point is.....will him saying it publicly get us to “ALL act big time” If anyone says it will....how?
  12. I agree with you. I just don’t think it’s a good look for it to come publicly from our AD. Especially in a season like we’re having. On the field AND in the stands. I say pick your battles. That’s all.
  13. Ok. I know some aren’t going to like this. First, I agree with what Wren said. He’s absolutely right. However....I don’t agree with him saying/tweeting it. What’s the upside? Are people that didn’t go, or left after the delay, etc gonna read that and say “you know what.....thanks UNT AD. Shame on me. I’ll go next time” No they’re not. His tweet isn’t going to lead to increased attendance. On the flip side, it’s gonna put a magnifying glass on the horrible attendance for that game. It’s gonna get an article written about it with a big ol picture of an empty stadium. It’s gonna make the program look bad. To those with just one eye on the program, it doesn’t help with our perception. Bottom line, I don’t know what good comes out of tweeting what he tweeted (despite how 100% correct he was) I am a huge Wren Baker fan. But I don’t like publicly criticizing the fans. Especially in the middle of a season where we’ve broken 2 single game attendance records and are on track to break the season avg record No upside.
  14. I see us being 5-6 pt dogs?
  15. So their D Line is supposed to be stout We all know this So Graham Harrell should game plan for it.
  16. I think next week’s opponent would take issue with that....
  17. Holy crap. What in the HELL are we doing running Mason Fine there. Inexcuseable. He’s limping. STUPID STUPID THAT’S F’ING STUPID
  18. Not to be greedy, but I would like to see a little momentum going into next weeks game in Birmingham.
