you watch the pitt game on tv and you buy a ticket to the GW game. if you work it out any other way your GW ticket ends up coming out free after instant savings under my plan. Kind of like how the new healthcare bill will decrease the deficit.

9/16/2009 10:40:41 PM

GW will be over at the half. Pitt should be a good game.

it aint about da dough. its all about the love.

32-17 NCSU (they get late 4th qtr pts)

9/16/2009 10:47:51 PM

pitt being more of a threat is all the more reason to prefer that game on tv and GW live if given the option of one or the other.

9/16/2009 11:47:06 PM

that all comes down to personal preference

9/16/2009 11:55:25 PM

but you have to be the only one that would prefer paying to watch a game on a computer as opposed to watching in hd for free. (assuming you have hd and air resistance is negligible)

9/17/2009 12:21:31 AM

i'm simply saying some people prefer going to games and the whole atmosphere of tailgating and getting loud and everything...kinda like what i did before the panthers fail last weekend

others prefer sitting in their living rooms watching it in high definition with a central heating and air system adjusted to their preference with a clean, non-crowded bathroom, and a cheaper refrigerator of your favorite icy beverage and or smoking preference

the reason i'm not going to the game is because i have to pick somebody up from the airport in charlotte earlier saturday afternoon and i'm not a student anymore...i'll order it because i want to see my team play

and i'll be watching the Pitt game on ESPNUHD for "free"

9/17/2009 12:27:19 AM

If you read the stipulation it was all assuming you could only go to one of the two games so that nullifies your last post. It was a sound point and made perfect sense but just not in the context of this discussion.

btw murray (last weekend) were the racers. pitt is the panthers

9/17/2009 12:34:02 AM

yeah i was referring to the Carolina Panthers fail last weekend which I attended in person

Nice.
I wonder who the 3 teams ahead of us nationally are, but I also don't feel like looking it up.

Nvm, looked it up anyway:
1. Arizona St.
2. Louisville
3. Tenn
4. NC State

sounds like an excellent candidate for the noon Raycom game

but it might not even warrant that status

seeing as how UNC/GT is in that slot this weekend, shockingly some might say

Donald Who????

9/18/2009 6:23:16 AM

^^No he wasn't. I know a Brit that was in that video. She speaks much better english

9/18/2009 8:30:33 AM

OUT for the game
Jamelle Eugene, HB - knee
Clem Johnson, S - thigh
Jeff Rieskamp, DE - hip
Jay Smith, WR - flu
Jake Vermiglio, OT - lower leg
Javon Walker, DB - knee
Julian Williams, OG/OT - flu

Johnson will be replaced by either Brandan Bishop or Justin Byers; Williams will be
replaced by Andrew Wallace.

9/18/2009 9:10:15 AM

wtf

9/18/2009 9:14:23 AM

there's clearly a .9 correlation if your first name begins with "J"

9/18/2009 9:18:56 AM

not surprising....conservative TOB resting anyone who is banged up against a cupcake team...

FOCUS ON PITT

9/18/2009 12:32:18 PM

according to the comments in that H1N1 article

DONALD BOWENS IS PLAYING THIS WEEK???

9/18/2009 12:40:20 PM

Good for Bowens. He's a good guy that had some crap luck the past year or so.

Getting DeAndre Morgan back is huge too

9/18/2009 2:01:22 PM

I just don't want Morgan or Bowen to risk anything, I would rather them take it easy this week and save it for the Pitt game, then chance aggrevating anything again... nonetheless if TOB says they are ready, I am confident in his call, and look forward to seeing them out there

9/18/2009 2:18:30 PM

bullshit

you can't just say "oh bowens is healthy" and throw him out against Pitt

let him get a touchdown or two against GW first

I can understand that for Morgan, but Bowens hasn't played football since 2007 and probably needs a tuneup game more than anyone...he's not going to come out of the gate at 100% whether it's against GW or Pitt so you might as well let him readjust to the game against an inferior opponent rather than throwing him to the wolves against Pitt.

[Edited on September 18, 2009 at 2:30 PM. Reason : .]

9/18/2009 2:28:56 PM

Exactly. You need some real game experience to get back in the flow of things -- especially Bowens. You see players try to come back from injuries all the time and not be as effective initially. It's because they've got to readapt to the speed of the game. I remember when Nate came back against Duke last year, he didn't make hardly any plays. The next game against Wake, he was a beast. It takes time.

[Edited on September 18, 2009 at 2:29 PM. Reason : ]

9/18/2009 2:29:18 PM

yeah the best thing for Bowens confidence going into the Pitt game would be to get a catch early in the GW game, get rocked by a safety, and get right back up...he'll get some confidence that he can take hits and tackles and be alright...then get his mojo going throughout the rest of the game

9/18/2009 2:34:36 PM

Does anyone happen to know if there are bathrooms in the West Chase Lot behind the office buildings on Blue Ridge? I am trying to decide whether to use my pass there or park in the free lot and walk to the student lot.

9/18/2009 3:31:22 PM

What do yall think is the best place to park for free if you want to walk to the Student Lot? I've got a friend coming in from outta town and she can't get here till 3:30, needless to say I'll be tailgating by then. So she needs some where she can park and walk to my tailgate. Any ideas?

9/18/2009 3:44:50 PM

The Free Lot at the Water Tower is where we always go. I have a parking pass for a paved lot but am not sure how fun it will be to tailgate there or if they even have porta johns

9/18/2009 4:06:47 PM

That Leslie Allen lady in the video was pretty cute.

9/18/2009 4:17:19 PM

Anyone got a Trinity lot pass? Will pay $30

9/18/2009 4:46:45 PM

what happened to the vet lot?!?!

9/18/2009 5:00:22 PM

i didn't know the british spoke english

Running back prospect James White will be visiting State during the game. He has a pretty stout offer list.

Schools Interested
Clemson
Iowa
Michigan State
North Carolina State
Purdue
South Florida
Wisconsin
Boston College
Indiana
Louisville
Minnesota
Rutgers
Syracuse
Tulane

Michigan, Pitt, and UCF also recruited him.



Actually I don't know for sure if he's visiting us or not. The other site shows him visiting Iowa this weekend. Weird. Either way he'd be a good pickup at RB.

9/19/2009 2:18:12 AM

btw, we'll be showing this at Ruckus.

9/19/2009 8:54:08 AM

showing it how? acc select? btw is the 10 bucks actually worth it? what do you actually get?

9/19/2009 9:20:23 AM

yes, ACC Select. and yeah, i'd say the $10 is worth it considering at least 10 or so people show up to watch and spend that much apiece.

9/19/2009 9:25:59 AM

I'm gonna shell out the money for the Pitt game next weekend, but I can't justify that for Gardner-Webb. I doubt much groundbreaking stuff will happen, short of some catastrophic injury (knock on wood).

9/19/2009 9:34:55 AM

^ that's on ESPNU I think

9/19/2009 10:20:34 AM

any video/audio links for the game tonight?

9/19/2009 12:20:32 PM

Is the Pitt game going to be good? Or are they another high school team

9/19/2009 1:36:38 PM

Haha you serious? And you go to games?

Pitt are the Big East favorites this year.
