Wow, you are only going to win one home game next year. Sorry!

Like UNT, UTSA, La Tech, Rice, and Tulsa being on our schedule, but not feeling the rest of this conference schedule. Sucks we will be losing Tulsa.

What do you get when you throw C-USA, WAC, and Sun Belt in a blender? This.

It's going to be an interesting season.

its amazing how much an upgrade in conference upgrades a schedule. regional opponents...absolutely fabulous! i've never seen a schedule this great for north texas. we may not win many games, but every game is driveable in conference. eight hours to southern miss is the longest trip...damn it's great!

I haven't seen much of NT since Hayden Fry days but I have noticed it seems to be on the rise. Hope you get treated real well in the Hub City.

You guys have a lot of starters back, don't you? Should be an improved team.

If FIU knocks off ECU I will treat some FIU fans to Chico's Tacos on their visit to El Paso to play UTEP! Now that should be enough incentive to pull off the upset right there.

USM got the shaft, they somehow got stuck in the sunbelt for 2013. May be a blessing in disguise because they do need W's right now more than anything.

USM at Denny Ficklin is a home game, look at the results.

Dowdy, not Denny. You guys aren't the USM of old. Can't wait to get this season underway.

See you later CUSA.

To be honest about it, Ban Ban has always seemed to be nicer to the outgoing schools than the schools that are staying. I'll give Ban Ban credit for keeping a darn good bowl lineup in place after the first round of defections, but he has sucked at almost everything else.

Agreed... that was pretty sh!tty of C-USA.

Its just stupid

We just finished up our two games @ Marshall.

We just played Rice @ Home.

We played ECU in Greenville last time.

I thought La Tech was taking Memphis schedule...then they should be in Tulsa.

UNT, Rice and UTSA all in Tulsa. Thats f-ed.

Look at USM's home games.. We get all newbies.

and this is just a one year deal. Wait until next year when ODU is added; there will be even more bellyaching. 13 team schedule is going to be different.

UAB has 5 home games. 3 of there are Northwestern State, FAU, and Rice. Think that is gonna pack in the fans? We play who we play. Just go win.

Tulsa plays @ UTEP
Last I checked, El Paso is still in Texas
& TU gets 3 Texas teams @ home

I think it was more about us not getting to play in Dallas or Houston where we recruit the most.

if anyone has a right to feel p.o. it's USM with their home games
