Call me crazy, but I've been predicting the Tide steamrolls the whorns by 3 TD's.

And....... Like some random sports talk host said, the BCS hiarchy felt sorry for little Timmy Tebow crying on the sideline against 'Bama and wanted him to beat up someone. Enter Cincy. I sure would like to have seen TCU dismantle Florida. BCS looks out for themselves.

Can't disagree. But this is not high school band competition. This is college football pagentry we are talking about, for the college students, casual fans, and the old guard alumni base. Like me.

Couldn't have responded better! I was viewing some other bowl game or pre-bowl game the other night and one of the bands from another well-known university performed the same way. Semi high stepping, spats, the whole thing. I really thought that band was energized. Don't get me wrong, I think the Green Brigade is great. I have never cared for the symphonic music they sometimes play nor the marching arrangements. And our pre-game could be so much better if they would get rid of that damn Fly Like An Eagle. Why not some of the traditional music, Texas Our Texas. After all, we are from the state of Texas. Sure the whorn band plays that, but so what.

I was thinking about those losses to Boise State and FIU. Had we won those two game like we should have, and sitting at 11-2, would UNT be ranked or at least be receiving some votes for the top 25? I think we would be receiving some votes. If only we had won.

Good discussion here. The question is, at the end of the day will Troy's low academics keep them from moving up to another conference (CUSA) when an opening occurs, or will their success on the gridiron help them move up? My guess is success on the fooball field will rule.

My hometown is across the highway from Groves, Texas. Does that count?

But did he have high school experience? Seriously, I was impressed with Idaho and Coach Akey all year. Idaho has been in the cellar for several years, they then make a coaching change, and BAM! Bowl game victory his first year at the helm. Impressive.

And this thread is on the UNT football board because......................??

Time to start scheduling Tech again.

Ha! With our luck Texas State or Sam Houston will hire Leach when they make their push for FBS.

From Football Scoop- "FIU offensive coordinator Bill Legg has joined the staff (at Marshall) as offensive line coach."

If we're lucky maybe SS will bring in Donna Capps as an assistant.

For the past several days, everytime I open up Vito's DRC blog, my system completely locks up. Mouse won't react, can't scroll, nothing, nada. I have to re-boot. Anyone else have this problem? I'm on Vista Home Premium.

Armed rebellion by all citizens that are against this health bill and the backdoor Chicago politics that will get it passed is the only way. Alas, the masses are weak when it comes time to defend our constitution. Health Care Reform. The first step towards a socialized America. What a shame.

In ice and snow! What a bonehead play that was.

I hope so. By himself, Ditka could beat the MUTS Blueraiders.

ULM: Montana State assistant Bryan Applewhite has been hired as running backs coach. Toledo outside receivers coach Jason Nichols has been hired as wide receivers coach. #78 Leon Lett has been hired as defensive tackles coach. Everett Todd will just coach the defensive ends.

Nice crowd. I wonder what the ESPN viewership rating was for this game? How many people were watching?

I'm watching the game and the speed and athleticism of So. Miss. is apparent.

The only thing holding back North Texas is North Texas itself. Want evidence? We still have a 5-31 coach running the show and being outrecruited.

Did he commit, or will he enter UNT in January and be available for spring ball?

You mean "forward thinking" leadership at North Texas?

Is it time for the annual Conference Realignment discussion?

Think about what we are saying. O.K. North Texas coaching staff, you need to read the Bleacher Report's analysis of you coaching in 2009 so you can improve in 2010. We now have a staff that needs to be handed a "Coaching for Dummies" book?
