How much will it weigh on getting a home game that only 8,000 people were in the UNIDome today?

I don't think it will matter too much. Bids were probably sent to the committee before today's game.

If we don't get at least 1 home game, it will nullify conference autobids and show even more how corupt the NCAA. It will show that all that matters is having a full stadium and winning at least 8 games regardless of whether or not you win the conference.

UNI locked up at least one home game with the win this evening. UNI's attendance/bid will be high enough compared to the competition out there. It's that second and third game that is up in the air right now.

Yes, but I've seen crazier things happen. In '01 we were in a similar situation but were outbid by EIU for some reason and had to go play there. Having said that, you are right that the competition for the 1st game is limited this year.

When will playoff tickets go on sale, and how much will they cost? I assume that we can order them through the ticket office on Monday morning.

Purple. Very purple.

Monday morning is correct, but season ticket holders have until Tues to turn in their orders for their seats.

Don't know the cost, but it will be a bargain.

I was wondering about that...thanks!

$18 to $25 range for tickets. No ticket deals here to get buts in the seats for these games.

You can still get the $12 non-premium seating tickets. $6 for kids.

I can't believe Western Kentucky got beat by FIU a school that just went Dv. 1 in football.

Why

I can't believe Western Kentucky got beat by FIU a school that just went Dv. 1 in football.

Why can no one believe that, they were supposed to lose. This is a 1-A team beating what turned out to be an average 1-AA school. Just on scholarship numbers alone they should beat them, not saying that it was a given and that WKU couldn't have won it, I just think it is crazy that everyone is talking like it is an upset. FIU was a good 1-AA team just a few years back, now they have 20 more scholly's and play a tougher schedule, they were supposed to beat a 4th place team from a 1-AA conference.

[Newsbreaker]

WKU was exposed as a total fraud.
