Kind of interesting, former Cowboy great Bill Bates' son Hunter plays for Northwestern. He was carried off the field in the 4th quarter, not sure of the injury. Hunter is a triplet, with sister Brianna, and brother Graham who plays for Arkansas State.

Try 40,121...

Not even close.

Ahh I can't wait to see tech fall back into mediocrity. I don't get their fans, they have won 1 conference championship and tied for a conf championship in 50 yrs .. FIFTY YEARS!!! You heard it, 2 conference championships in 50 yrs and they still think their shit doesn't stink. :bow:

City of Dallas has to come up with a lie of attendance to make this joke of a bowl game valid. They didn't have the money to bring the Cotton Bowl to 21st century standards. Implode it.

40,121 - right, and I have some waterfront property you'd love to buy in Louisiana!

The Cotton Bowl is a damn fine stadium. After the renovations they did to it, there is NOTHING wrong with that place. I would love to have an annual game with someone there during the fair. Maybe smuT?

My friend is a die hard tech fan and alum who lives in Dallas and he told me just like him most fans didn't give a rats ass about this game. Like just about 80% of other bowl games....this one was meaningless. We don't need to be dogging it and Tech fans don't need to defend a higher attendance number. In the end the game and this bowl was and is irrelevant and a waste of time.

The TicketCity Bowl is a great example of why there are too many bowl games. A 11-1 Texas Tech team played at the same stadium just two seasons ago against a 8-4 Ole Miss team and the game pulled in 88,175. After a disappointing season for two 7-5 teams, I wasn't that surprised to only see the Cotton Bowl half full.

Looks half empty to me...

I was there and have many pictures. I would be VERY surprised if you could show me the Cotton Bowl half full.

What's the point of this thread anyway? We would have been thrilled with an invite to a bowl, any bowl for that matter. Looks about like the Super Dome did during our New Orleans Bowls, so why are we wasting bandwidth to run down a program many of could care less about?

Smacks of envy and I think that reflects poorly on us as fans of NT.

      Seton Hall star Kadary Richmond enters transfer portal

      Even the "Brand" programs are losing players to the portal. Maybe Ross can sign this guy for us? I heard he likes to play slow offense and lots of defense. https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/40025291/seton-hall-star-kadary-richmond-enters-transfer-portal "Seton Hall star Kadary Richmond entered the transfer portal Thursday afternoon, potentially becoming the best player available in the portal. Richmond had long been rumored to be considering a transfer, with Big East and area rival St. John's a potential landing spot for the Brooklyn native."

      G5s Finally Getting Together......Talking About Their Future

      You guys are all delusional. I have a hard time believing that the cut-off will be 30ish teams. Its obvious that's where it is in reality, and dollars (revenue, budgets, etc). But too many of these schools have enough delusional donors who are willing to keep throwing money at it. Why does NIL make that change? I think most of you don't actually talk to any of these big money guys. They aren't jumping out....they are jumping in. And always have. Now it's legal to pay players to win...so anyone with a conscious before when it was illegal doesn't have that hanging over them now. See SMU, Baylor, etc. We're all a bunch of poor schmo's here. Look at the scroll that runs across this very site. That ain't big money scrolling through here. True some of the big donors post on here, but not the Ryans or the 4 billionaire types that fund dirty schmoo.

      A-Scott Projected to OU

      Its in Queens, not Manhattan! I briefly looked at SJU when looking for grad schools, its a very unique university, its not for every student and that includes athletes. I dont know if they have the easiest time recruiting, sure its NYC, but there are plenty of quality programs near NYC. They do have Pitino, but how long is he sticking around?
