    Great to be among fellow Panther fans!

    Hey there fellow Panther fans! I Just found this site and man am I glad I did. Like the rest of you all I bleed purple and gold.

    I only get the chance to make it to one or two games a year. The SIU game was our first this year! Man did we pick a great game to make it to or what!!!

    Ive been poking around for a couple of days now and the one thing I thought I would see alot about was that WKU player that reached in and choked Sanders after the play was over. I thought that was so not cool and was wondering if anybody had heard if he was scolded in any way. Maybe that kind of thing happens more than I know. Hope not.

    Anyway that is old news and I am over it but boy was I pissed when I saw it.

    Looking forward to a GREAT post season!!

    First - Welcome to the board. Glad to see more panther fans are finding the board.

    Yes the choking was not cool, but on the relative scope of things wasn't as bad as a late hit could have been. I doubt anything was done by WKU and I know the Gateway didn't do anything as there wasn't a penalty. A lot of worse things happen at the bottom of a pile than that during a game.

    Besides that - We won the game, then won the conference title and are going to the playoffs. WKU is staying home!

    Again welcome to the board!

        A call to all those who are out there and haven't signed up yet, I would recommend it, it's a wonderful oppurtunity to meet and mingle with fellow panthers.
        Oh, and let me make this perfectly clear to you people: you go to UNI, NOT IOWA. The Hawkeyes and their fans do not give a crap if you remain "true to them" or some stupid self-fulfulling bullcrap like that.-OTP


        What i say are my opinions and mine alone, and not that of anyone associated with me.

          First off, welcome Dome Fan!

          Secondly there was a penalty on that play, on Sanders for compaining about being choked! Talk about adding insult to injury. It reminded me of a similar assault by I think it was an Ohio State linebacker a few years ago. In that case the chocking got replayed on national tv over and over. I don't think there was any game penalty for that either, but maybe OSU ended up suspending him for a game or something?

            Thanks for the welcome guys. I am enjoying reading all of your posts. Some good general info and some good and funny.

            Take care, see you around.

              Ya it was an ohio state player Reynolds was his name, he chocked wisconsin quarterback john stocco and was suspended at least one game (Iowa game) for that instance. Hope this guy got the same punishment. Probably not since the ohio state replay was replayed 100 times on espn, and the fans cried out for penalty. Just like the Virginia offensive lineman earlier this year when he hit Boston College D-Ends knee after the whistle had blown. Espn and websites showed it a ton before anything was done. Seems like there has to be a fan outcry for the NCAA to do any punishments anymore. I hope the WKU player at least got some team punishment for it, but was probably treated like a hero.

                choking

                the penalty was actually given to #10 on the play. he was sticking up for sanders. I know sanders got pretty fired up about the play as well, but they penalized #10 who has been letting his emotions fly a couple times the last few games.

                  Gosh... I hope I have not offended to many folks for using the term "guys". I do know that this is not an all male message board and I am not trying to disinclude the lady panther fans. It is just a term I use to address or include everyone sometimes. Perhaps incorrectly.

                  Oh and fyi I am a guy too. I checked this morning. hehehe

                  So... I guess I am glad that the penalty was not on Sanders as I had thought. That would have been like salt on a wound.
                  Were in the playoffs and they, No... "He" is not. hehehe

                    To the best of my knowledge the term "guys" is still in general use as a non-gender specific word. I often hear women use it when speaking to a mixed group or even all women.

                    Winder - pick up that flag! There is no PC penalty on the post.

                      After reviewing replay tape, Gonzo is correct and there is no penalty!
                      Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier'n puttin' it back.

                      Before you wonder "Am I doing things right," ask "Am I doing the right things?"

                        New here too

                        Just found the sight as well. It is nice to see a place where Panther fans can come and talk about the teams.
                        Just so that I will not get hit with the PC flag the name I use is from Walt Klinker back when he coached here. He said that the Tush Hog was one of the toughest meanest hogs out there, and he gave that moniker to the linemen he coached.
                        Great post on here and can't wait to see the game this weekend.
