  1. It will be interesting to watch the news the night that the teams arrive in Charlotte and see what the players from USF are wearing when they get off the bus at the hotel compared to what NCS are wearing. If I remember correctly from seeing other "bowl team arrivals" on the news, everyone is either wearing a suit and tie or matching school warm up gear.
  2. Yes, at the time it crossed my mind that they looked like thugs.  I actually felt a little bit embarrassed for them.  I think the older donors on level 1 were a bit taken back as it took them a while to acknowledge the players and then it was half-hearted applause.
  3. A 19-0 run will do that. Students were great today and loud even when we were down by 25.
  4. I know it's in the proper forum, but this needs to be seen by many.  Can anyone comment on the possibility of this happening (USF vs. UAB in Charlotte)? http://www.thebullspen.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=bowl;action=display;num=1133882538
  5. Line is holding steady today at 6 - 6.5. I am totally shocked, but refuse to make easy money betting against the Bulls.

  7. And will there be instant replay this year at the bowls? During the season this was a conference rule and OOC opponents could refuse it.
  8. Makes you appreciate $7 at RJS in huge lots open for tailgating. Anybody for an OCS thread?
  9. 6,000 including season and students would be GREAT! That would surprise me.
  10. According to the bowl, these 2 watering holes are USF party headquarters. Can't they give us some love (or at least a welcome message)? Looks like Dixie's is a Steelers bar. http://www.dixiescharlotte.com/ http://www.buckheadsaloonclt.com/
  11. I wouldn't waste my time at Bulls Heaven yet. They don't have much inventory at this time, just a corner of the current store. Hopefully the offerings will change greatly when they actually move into the new, bigger space.
  12. The bowl's website looks awful. Not very professional at all. They must have some intern working on it as there is no credit statement provided. Links don't exist (i.e. front page ticketmaster and the school websites) and content is very poorly placed or formatted. They even pulled an odd logo for USF with the Football tag. http://meinekecarcarebowl.com/
  13. Yikes - a block of less than 5,000 (10% of the crowd) in green and gold would look awful and reflect poorly on USF and the BE.
  14. No - against BOA Stadium policies. No whistles, bells or artificial noisemakers.
  15. I don't see why any IAA team would not take a second IA payday as an away game to fill out the 12 game schedule and walk away with another $100,000 to $400,000. The 12 game schedule handed them the option for increasing their budgets/revenues quite easily.
  16. All 4 BE teams are touchdown underdogs. We need to take at least 2 of these games for the good of the conference. Obviously WVU is the most important to shut up the critics.
  17. Hadn't we heard over the last year and a half, we were in talks with Tulane, Southern Miss and ECU?  Wonder if those will pan out? There must be 50 1-A teams out there looking for 1 for 1's with the 12 game schedule looming.  I'm sure DW has it under control and is negotiating the best offers. The PAC10 made the smartest move to accomodate the 12 game schedule by committing to the first 9 game conference schedule. They are all set with their OOC commitments - don't need to find the 4th game.
  18. BULLS WIN! (I don't think you should get the prize if you choose against the Bulls) 3 Holmes 25 Jones 11 81%
  19. They started the presentation audio just as WVU was running on the field. You could not hear what was said until they started announcing the names. Very poor organization and a show of little respect to the seniors.
  20. Letter went to donors that said packages will be available for review on the website Sunday night. Sounded like donors could buy on Monday and public on Tuesday. Not sure though.
  21. All pretty pricey because of the holiday weekend. Check out the packages offered by the Bulls Club on Monday - should be less expensive than putting it together yourself at this point.
  22. Great, great showing tonight - not only in numbers but it looked like everyone in the first level was INTO the game (not just the first few rows). Great job!
