    If and only If - Semi-Finals

    IF it's a UNI - Montana semifinal, it might be in Cedar Falls..... Montana doesn't have lights from what I know...

    From the NCAA Championship manual

    Semifinal Determination Procedure
    The semifinal games during the 2005 Division I-AA Football Championship will
    be conducted on two different days. One semifinal game will occur Friday evening,
    December 9, while the other will occur Saturday afternoon, December 10. Both games
    will be broadcast nationally on ESPN2.
    The Division I-AA football committee has determined that the two remaining teams
    in the top half of the 16-team championship bracket will play Friday night, while the
    two remaining teams in the bottom half of the bracket will play Saturday afternoon.

    Gotta get there first, but I like our chances. You would think, though, that they would be able to get portable lighting in for the game. They have plenty of money for that and there is no way we could come close to their bid.

      I'm also going to add that I do not fear the Panthers playing at Wah-Griz stadium. The Griz are not the same team this year and are very beatable. Our coaches have learned from that experience in '01 and the seniors now were around at that time to know what its like.

      If there was anytime for payback, it would be this year.

        IF both teams get that far they will probably get temp lights. Could we talk to MUSCO and maybe they would not bid for the project?

        This team is much more balanced than any other team that has went to Mizzoula. But it's Eastern first, can't wait for Saturday. Not going to the ISU game in Lawrence now.

          Yes they are. Plus, they have a QB with 2 years of experience and this group has been to the playoffs 2 times now. That is HUGE!!!!

              Sorry to rain on your parade.................they have lights.............a set in each corner of their stadium.
              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?"

                Someone on AGS said they don't have lights but just took a ton of pictures of the stadium with lights from when they last rented some and had them brought in for the last time they played on ESPN2 during the playoffs.

                  If UNI can get past the first two rounds, then they can send us to Russia to play the semi-final for all I care. Playing a lot of people's preseason #1 followed by the #1 at the end of the season will be no easy task...

                    Pic from October 15th game at Montana. Last time they mounted spotlights in the corners of the stadium above those raised bleachers. I'm sure they'll do it again and fork out the cash to get that home field advantage.

                      here's the link to the pics of Montana with the lights from AGS. Its about a quarter of the way down the page. I kind of like the third one really, the long range shot. http://www.anygivensaturday.com/foru...1&page=2&pp=10

                      Its time for this panther to head to bed. homework on thanksgiving week is bogus. good luck w/ ur tests reed.
                      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
