Marshall - Anyone Going Tonight?

Postby bagice » Wed Feb 15, 2006 1:36 pm

I'll be there with my daughter and maybe I can drag my wife along. It is getting harder and harder to attend. I was really optimistic this year that we could at least have finished in the top half of the conference but this whole season has been a real downer. Watching Bamba play has been about the only thing to get excited about, and he has had a couple of off games here lately.

That Tulsa home loss really took the final wind out of my sails. I would really like to see this team win the next three games and set up some excitement at the UAB game. That game needs to be our "bowl game", last home game of the season, senior night, and an opponent that will be ranked or very close to it. We need some momentum going into that game.

Let's get it started tonight with a win over Marshall...hopefully.

I haven't decided yet. I have been supporting this program for a long while but it's getting extremely difficult.

3-6 vs 2-7 ....woo hoo. The team has actually gotten worse rather than better this year..

I am probably going to go to the UAB game just to see what kind of team they have.

I have tried to give my tickets away all day long. I have slipped them into a couple of colleagues' shirt pockets, left them on co-workers' desks, and even slipped them into one person's lunch bag. They (obviously) knew the source and I got comments like "Get a life", "you gotta be kiddin'", "I'd rather watch American Idol" and "did you really pay for these?" I just don't think I can bear another trip to Moody to watch us take the first 20 minutes to score 17 points. I did get a good basketball "fix" last night at Duncanville vs DeSoto, though.

i can relate to you guys being down, but attitudes like that just compound the problem. Expect many more years of mediocrity. Thats what we probably deserve. Blackistone was probably right.

We are #249 just above Quinnipiac out of 334 in RPI, 3-6 and 11-11...with the possibility of finishing under .500 in a terrible conference and can't score 50 pts....

I'm sorry for not being more positive but this is just not acceptable.

I will be there as long as my expired student ID still gets me a free ticket. No way I pay to watch this team.

a pregame trip to Two Rows for $1 pints will help significantly.
