Title: Why is North Texas playing in a bowl game? Post by: N.AL-Tider on December 27, 2016, 01:30:09 PM North Texas has a season record of 5-7 so I'm not sure how they got a bowl game... Alex Morris isn't doing badly but his team is currently trailing Army 31-21 late in the 3rd quarter.

Too many Bowls. ??? Title: Re: Why is North Texas playing in a bowl game? Post by: Old Tider on December 27, 2016, 07:01:29 PM North Carolina State is already bragging that they beat an SEC team. Vandy, who usually embarrasses us.
Title: Re: Why is North Texas playing in a bowl game? Post by: bamaphil on December 27, 2016, 08:13:51 PM Because there are so many bowls, the 5-7 teams with the highest academic ratings get to play.

Vandy, who usually embarrasses us. That loss by Vandy doesn't embarrass me. I think every conference should have at least one ACC-like team within it's ranks...Vandy is the SEC's... :nah:Title: Re: Why is North Texas playing in a bowl game?
