Mean Green Fan checking in

[malonish]

I'm looking forward to this game more than Baylor, especially if the crowd approaches 25k.

In the Baylor game, will the attendance top 30k and will SMU cover?
The UNT game will be competitive and is a needed win if the Ponies will show real progress (3-4 wins). UConn, Tulsa and James Madison are three other very competitive games.

Game 2 just seems too early to expect much and hope ppl aren't banged up after Baylor. Maybe the D will just be worn out.

We don't get to play Uconn this year.

Our competitive games should be UNT, JMU, Tulsa, and USF.

What about Tulane?

To me, North Texas is probably the most interesting game on the schedule. First off, in upper management here at the office there's me and 3 former Eagles. So I got caught a full ration of sh** last year, and I'm ready for some revenge.

Foundation Repair Company?

My bad. I still have memory issues caused by the time June pulled Defeat out of the Jaws of Victory against them a few years ago.

Chemical manufacturing.

I think we should be worthy of minority-owned status for being owned by a UNT alum and NOT being in the crack-chemical manufacturing business.

Tulane vs. SMU

Glad you guys are getting excited about your road trip to Dallas:

What was the score last year?

[tristatecoog]

Wow, looks like the MG is serious about winning.

[skyscraper]

That's actually a good setup to get students down to the game. Mimicking something like that for TCU is a good idea.

[PonyKai]

Ah, yes, that age old rivalry the tee shirts will commemorate.

This may be one of the games that will define our progress for the year.

Last year UNT won the game 43-6 as if you didn't remember. We were terrible and
they played very well.

We will be better this year but are we good enough to beat the Mean?

Regardless, I will be there and yelling for the Mustangs.

A close win or a loss at home would not be a good sign of the talent level we have but I will be cheering these young men on regardless of if it is a close win, loss or blowout win.

A couple of quick updates:

- UNT prez is stating on social media there are over 25 student busses that will be traveling to the SMU game

- The full Mean Green Brigade band will be performing at the game

- Don't have any hard numbers yet but some are saying it could be 4-5K+ UNT fans with walk-up etc. We should have a better idea on this in the coming weeks.

We had a very respectable turnout at the Heart of Dallas Bowl a couple of years ago and I think there are a fair amount of alums/fans in Dallas who won't drive to Denton but will make it to a game in Dallas proper. This combined with the fact it is our first game (usually we play a body bagger to open the season) seems to point to our biggest crowd at Ford yet. I believe the last time we played there was in the Dodge regime and had a decent crowd but this one should be a whole lot bigger due to the promotions etc..

Should be fun.

Glad to hear it. I would hope a school with 35,000 students and less than an hour's drive from SMU would bring a solid contingent of fans/students. Look forward to a great atmosphere!
