Forgive an aging fan for "preaching" here but let's all soak this in. Sometimes it's too easy to get caught up in the frenzy of success. We're all on a Panther high right now. But, don't lose sight of the journey as we focus on the destination. All the press, sold out games, number one ranking, statewide recognition. This is what we all dream of and what others strive to experience. SOAK IT IN !!!! Enjoy enjoy Panther fans. We are all part of-----------

MAKING A MEMORY !!!!!!!!

I agree entirely. Remember, this weeks' game is only the HALFWAY mark for goal for this season! 3 more more regular season + 4 playoff games after this to keep building this frenzy.

GO PANTHERS!! ONE TEAM, ONE GOAL!!

Good point Purple Reign. I too am enjoying this moment. I hope each week we have another moment, snapshot in time if you will, and at the end of December we get one great flicker show to enjoy again and again!

I'm definitely enjoying "soaking in" this special time in Panther athletics.
I've cut back on my work schedule (no weekends) in order to be able to attend more UNI games, and have gone to a number of road games for the first time (though I had attended a few UNI/Iowa State games in the past, and made the trip to Chatty in '05), which was a blast.

It is definitely a fun year.

Imagine how hard it is to soak up the atmosphere 800 miles away!

Great posts!
I am soaking this season in big time!
I've been faithfully following the FB program at UNI for over 15 years and there is a buzz around this year's team that I can never remember.
Panther fans-enjoy what you have becasue we've got it really good!!!!

A winning tradition
A passionate head coach who is an alumnus
A great supporting coaching staff
Sellout crowds in a great place to watch a game
Talent up the yang...
Depth up the yang...
Playmakers on offense
A defense that can stop people and creates turnovers
A punter and FG kicker who are coming through
Special tems players who like to dismember opponents
A massive, talented O-Line
A confident team that makes plays when it has to
A passionate fan base
The best play by play crew in the nation!
What have I left out??

Yup.....I agree!!

Amen Brother! but add 300+ more miles.

It may be hard at times but I'm loving every minute of this! I sport my Purple every chance I get! And hopefully (pending $$$) in two weeks I'll make my yearly pilgramage up to Cedar Falls and take in some UNI culture with My Fellow Panthers!

18 of 19 years with at least 7 wins. Counting this year 11 out of 15 years in the playoffs (the Dunbar era doesn't count). A lot of fans of other FCS programs would love to have the playoff discussions we get to have every year.
