  1. I understand a lot of fans have a mural of Saint Littrell and what not...But blame here falls at the feet of coaching. No way to sugar coat it. I guess I commend the attempt.
  2. Yes...but we have fans that don't want to be a meanie greenie as they should.
  3. Yes...it was textbook the Philly Eagle play they did in the Super Bowl with Nick Foles. Difference was our guy thought he could track star it to the end zone instead of lobbing it into the end zone.
  4. This is kind of where I am at. We have 1 championship to compete for, just 1. It's the conference championship that is rated by sargain the number 10th FBS conference...of 10. We definitely hurt our odds of winning arguably the 10th best conference championship (8th in my eyes). Last season kind of put into perspective with FAU what our ceiling is. Though FAU had some ugly early losses last season, they were the hottest G5 team by season's end playing the best football in the country. Their reward? A home bowl game vs the Arkon Zips I believe. We could rattle off 7 straight end up not having even a division crown to our name and probably play in the Toasted Bread Bowl sponsored by Nutella vs the University of who gives a shit in desolate X poor state.
  5. It's legal. It's called getting moss'd. He thought he was going to bread basket the interception. Instead their guy high pointed the ball with nuts to the back of the head.
  6. Well, you just need to see pics of what attendance can quickly turn into. Wish I had a side by side of UTEP 2013 VS WKU 2015. Fickle fans turn on dimes.
  7. Nothing like icing your own kicker strategy. If he hits the kick it's easier to look past all the coaching flaws in this game. Miss the kick and the flaws start piling on top of each other.
  8. 15k is negative. 22k for a 5-1 team is cynical to type...but probable.
  9. Or 3rd and 7 in the 2nd quarter winning 21-9 and LaTech is reeling and playing on their heels bailing out to stop anything sideline or deep aaaasaannnnd we go deep to the sideline. We worked the middle of the field with a minimalistic approach tonight...predictable of this staff. Feast or famine. Not Kelvin Smith on a button for a 9 yard gain and eventual 28-9 lead to put the game in it's pajamas. Told my wife right then and there, we're in trouble.
  10. I think it may be a breathe of fresh air. I like this staff, and I'm not jumping to conclusions, but I think there may be a disconnect somewhere and I'm not sure where or what; but something. I can't quite table it, but seems just easily fall apart when the good isn't going. When adversity hits...like cliche coaches like to mumble about...We just kind of food up like a lounge chair. Outside of Army. Damn good fight in that one.
  11. LaTech will need to lose twice while we will need to win out to get into the CUSA champ game. Who is LaTech losing twice to? IF tonight is any indication we aren't winning out. Might lose the next home game to a decent Southern Miss team if we play like tonight. We hit adversity for the first time this year and I saw a team press for results instead of playing for results.
  12. Did he talk about coaching and calling plays? Catching punts? Personally showing emotion on the sideline, once? Telling your returner not to catch a pooch punt at the 5 or AT ALL with 30 secs to go? Being generally incompetent tonight?
  13. FAU lost to MTSU tonight. They have definitely taken a step back. After tonight, La Tech is the fav from the West....Not sure how I see them lose 2 conference games given the status of the conference. I think Marshall might come out of the East.
  14. I'm not kissing any attendance good bye. I'll be there through and through. Buuuutttttt....be real.
  15. Have you had a conversation with your normal run of the mill UNT student in the last year or two? I have. And I can say, from my very small sample size, they aren't the biggest fans of football. Like, they will never be die hard dudes or donors. Haven't ran into any, actually. So, losing will push them back into the art studio or scarf weaving seminar.
  16. By my eye, the did. But it was close to enough to warrant. Sometimes those ass cheeks don't touch the ground as soon as you think they did. Therefore, review just to be sure. Take the extra 2 minutes to be positive in your on the field decision.
  17. Over 30K fans...Yep...Pretty much.
  18. Meh. Not crazy. Their call. Bad no call to not review, but their call to make. CRAZY would be out ST coach not ciphering through the on field commotion to find whatever returner is being sent out to field a definite pooch punt with :38 seconds left in the half to, NOT TOUCH THE BALL. Now, to me, that's bat shit crazy.
  19. I personally don't think he was in. But I'm a human person not a robot or motion frame by frame camera. Apparently, all "scoring" or "lined to gain" plays are automatically reviewed "upstairs." So, whoever was "upstairs" determined on his own probable half sleeping and half beating off accord, that it was not sufficient enough for a 'real' review.
  20. It warranted a review, period. Had this been a SEC 2:30 game on CBS this game would've been finger phlucked by about 10 different angles within seconds of the live play and then at least two TV timeouts for the refs to come up with a definite conclusion. However, it's lil Ole UNT...so the "F em" method was used.
  21. Well, that some guy is an idiot...Because you can. The conversion was for sure not definite. But it 100% warranted a lengthy review. That was bad marketing for the marketing team to jump out there with their normal BS shenanigans. Give the fans the time to boo and hopefully convince a review to take place.
  22. The egregious muffed punt at the 5 12 letter cuss word yard line. And the drive continuing PI penalties in the first half. The other was just a game time TO. Unfortunate, but football. The other...simple and easy coaching could have change that outcome and in hand probably decided the game. A 5 second conversation could have won this game.
