Turned over on downs! I had enough and I want to beat traffic.

I am so pissed off, I tap John on the shoulder we are in the wing Harry and Chris are next me, John lets f'ing go. I hate UTSA, I hate their ugly Halloween colors. I hate they are even in our conference.  Harry and Chris - I am gone

I was simply pissy at this point. I hit the walkway full speed and I am nearly to the car when I hear North Texas last time out on the PA and roar from the stadium. What what what is this?

Holy Shit I better get the radio on.

Pissyness fading fast.

Fine Starts Moving the ball on the radio, and the roar from the stadium supporting the play by play.

Pissyness completely gone could feel the momentum overwhelming me.  Giddiness (is that a word) and nervous energy have me swimming in my own head

I look at John, then notice Emmitt and TXStranger are there. 

Boom to their 30.

Spiked ball 

Some discussion at the truck.

It is getting blurry now it seems like destiny is taking over.

All I can hear and focus on is "Fine hit as he throws..... caught 15, 10, 5 touchdown.  Did I stroke out and go to heaven?

High fives all around, I think Emmitt does a back flip. Not really sure at this point if I am still part or reality. 

The tailgate just above us has the game on the TV, Emmitt and TXStranger bee line to it.

Harry calls me to tell I should not have left we just took the lead. 

Crazy Night 

Fine is as tough as they come, if he stays healthy he will destroy every QB record North Texas has I hope our OLine gets better fast.  

Starting to believe this can be a very magical 12-2 season.

Will you learn from this experience, though?

Frankly, I grade his fan performance out very high. Made a poor decision in a high leverage situation, but overall you have to keep it all in perspective and realize this is just one step on the road to @KingDL1 being a better fanbase husband and father.

Same here! Had two buddies leave right after that, my dad was leaving for the exit and I grabbed him on the shoulder and said, "Just wait and see". Sure enough it turned into a jaw dropping ending

I was watching the game on my phone. I got a call from another member on the board that was on the verge of beating his dog, kids, wife, and in no discernible order who was as upset as i was. In Houston, i was 2 mins behind on ESPN 3 all day. It didn't mean much all day. But in the final mins, it was everything. I thought all hope was gone. We talked thru the first few plays. It seemed pedestrian, but then the long ball... I couldn't believe we had a chance... I had to talk my buddy off the ledge that this was another north texas season where we lost the base and disappointed the true fans. Then the impossible happened. We connected a pass, Mason Fine heroically stood his ground and completed a pass for a touchdown in the closing seconds. I was elated. My kids and I jumped up and down. All was right with the world. Unfortunately not many noticed, but as a UNT fan I do not care. I love the win and I love those who brought it to us.

GMG. Thank you for bringing a ray of sunshine into my life.

We all can be heros, even if it is just for one day.

I did the exact same thing.  Left after missed 4th down conversion.  Listened to the last drive on the radio.  Sick to my stomach to miss it.   Lesson learned. 

At least I recorded it. 

I am just glad I was still next to the stadium when I jumped to turn on the radio and not a couple minutes later and I would have been on the road. I would have likely wrecked my SUV if I tried to drive and listen to the end of that game.

This is why I never leave until the Alma Mater is played. The only exception was for self-preservation at that horrible frozen game at Fouts...maybe WKY? I remember that even after retreating to the Deck it was still unbearable.

      If…..

      Javion was my pick as well followed closely by Mitchel, just to see what he could accomplish under a good coach.

      A-Scott Projected to OU

      St. Johns is one of the great sleeping giant jobs in the nation. They have a fantastic basketball history (they haven't been that great for the last generation or so, but the Johnies do have a helluva tradition) going back about 80 years and they play in NYC at MSG.

      If…..

      Recent Past With all the excitement over Tylor Perry we quickly forgot about the best player from our recent past. The stats and awards bear it out. In my mind the answer is Javion Hamlet. No other player has accomplished what he has. https://meangreensports.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/javion-hamlet/4731 Imagine what he would have accomplished if the 2020 NCAA Tournament had not been cancelled. We won the Conference in 2020 and arguably that was the best team we have ever had.

      Judge orders Florida State, ACC to mediation to settle suit

      A majority of schools could just vote to dissolve the ACC. There would be a court fight, but eventually schools that want out will be released with some greatly reduced financial penalty. It's like a divorce, you can't keep someone in an unhappy relationship, even with a contract. It will happen probably before the end of next year at the pace things are moving.

      Judge orders Florida State, ACC to mediation to settle suit

      The ACC has a media rights deal that runs through 2036 with massive financial penalties to leave. ACC schools make more money per school than the Big 12. The PAC had no media deal and zero financial penalty to leave the conference. The two situations couldn't be more different. ACC schools do not want to associate themselves with the likes of WVU, Cincy, UCF, Texas Tech, OK State and the other Truck Stoppers.
