Tech has agreed to a future home-and-home series, so why wouldn't they be willing to play UNT in a bowl game located where the majority of their alumni live and in fertile recruiting territory? It would be as good of a bowl for Tech as it would be for UNT, and give both schools some very good publicity. Not to mention both schools should easily sell their allotments of tickets in that scenario, which they both desperately need to do in order to make the bowl trip profitable (or at the very least not a financial loss, which many bowl games end up being).

I'm all in for Tech vs. UNT in HOD. That should be a helluva matchup.

UT-Rio Grande Valley is "technically" a new institution that is the result of merging UT-Brownsville & UT-Pan American. Thus, they didn't change the colors...they more or less either merged the colors of the two previous institutions or started over from scratch (but I think it's the former).
