    UNH Stadium

    Did anyone see the feature during the UNH-Colgate game on the UNH coaches box at their stadium?

    For those that didn't, the UNH coaches watch the game from a window that is in a brick building that is behind the press box of their stadium. This gives them a better vantage point since their press box is not that high. To get to the coaches box, they go into this brick building and scale a series of ladders and catwalks that would make James Bond think twice. Honestly, if one of the coaches lost their footing at the top of the first ladder, they'd fall to their death. It's pretty crazy.

    Another reason to appreciate the Dome. The coaches don't have to risk their lives to coach the game.

    I saw it...it's a high school stadium...at best. But their team is salty. Let's go Panthers and beat UNH and get another game in CF for the seniors and the fans!

      It's not as nice as a lot of high school stadiums and is probably smaller than some too. 6500? Wow. Bet the NCAA is thrilled with the gate that they are taking in there. Probably praying for an upset to get it into a bigger facility. At least the crowd won't be a factor. Never seen 6500 fans cause any kind of noise issues in an outdoor stadium. As for the team and field, that's what we need to deal with. Another impressive duo on offense. The D will need another outstanding effort. But, if Colgate can put up 20+ points, we can certainly score against their D...

        The Colgate running back had over 200 yards on the day and if their offense hadn't given UNH the ball 5 times...it would have been a better game. TO's are the key.

          Isn't it also fair to say that Colgate was probably much more intimidated by the "1" sitting in front of UNH then we will be.

            Colgate High looked like crap in that game.

              Thought Colgate had a decent QB (even though he looked like he was 12 yrs old, he threw it pretty well and hung tough) and the freshman tailback was solid.

              After that the talent was hard to spot. Saw they had a WR from Iowa who transferred from Nebraska. Dylan Long I think was his name. Not real big, some speed, dropped a ball in the end zone but lots of guys dropped balls that day.

                one of the teams also had an O-line guy from West Des Moines. I don't remember which team or a name though.
                Coach Whisenhunt 1/18/09. "There was never any complaints about not being named the starter, all he wanted was an opportunity and he took advantage of it. Kurt is probably one of the greatest individuals you'll ever meet. Kurt worked hard on a lot of things that a lot of times older quarterbacks aren't willing to do. That's a credit to his humility and his competitive drive, and the reason that we are here today in great part is what Kurt Warner has done for us."

                  New Hampshire didn't even play the other good teams in their league...they didn't have to play Delaware or Richmond. How does that happen?

                    Before the playoffs started, everyone on AGS (that I read) seemed to think this was a VERY likely team to be upset in the playoffs. Now they're suddenly so amazing?

                    We will have, if we don't turn the ball over, every opportunity to win this game.

                      The A-10 has twelve teams. At least the Big 10 is only one off

                        I dug this thread up on old stadiums to introduce you to SIU's stadium:

                        The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory.

                              Wow good thing they're building a new one, that place looks like it would fall down if you stepped on the wrong spot
                              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
