It was just two seasons ago that So Miss beat Case K and UH for the Conference Title and squashed any Heisman hopes for Case and BCS buster for UH. Either Ferona knew the cupboard was bear when he bolted for UNC, or he was one heck of a coach (he is a good coach). Hard to believe he left them that dry in the talent department.

Joe Montana's son is having a nice year for Tulane .. and is making a difference.

Many of us on this board have wanted to play UNT for the possible boost in attendance. I hope they continue to win since we will be playing them in the future. I look for a much better visitor attendance from them than Rice, Houston, and the new AAC foes.

what did we have announced 12,000 the last time we played on Halloween which means we had 9,000 actually in attendance

I thought this thread was going to be about our estimated attendance figures for this bye week. I think attendance at Ford will be slightly down this week

At least we can't blame them for being on the blvd and not coming into Ford. :P

According to the box scores:
UH - 22,707
UNT - 22,835

CK and MGE can argue as to the validity and implications. :)
ohhhhhhhh sh@@@@@@tttttttttttts about to go down :lol:
They can both take pride in the fact they outdrew ASU-WSU (20K+).

Of course an indoor game in Houston and an outdoor game in Denton are a bit different than an outdoor game in Pullman, WA.

who can forget that Thursday night game SMU played against Fresno at the Cotton Bowl in front of about 6,000? Yes, I was impressed by the 22k that both Houston and UNT drew on a weeknight...but they do have much larger student populations and the kids have to do something before hitting the bars for an attempted late night score

Gets old, dragging out the record books over and over again to prove we suck and have sucked for 25 years. Complaining hasn't done much good has it? I started this thread to point out the improvement in UNT attendance which might help our numbers when we play. That's all, not as an invitation to many to beat up on SMU attendance or rather lack thereof, yet again and again and again.......
