***Game Thread Hampton, Week 4***

[BCPanther]

They're terrible. This is the true definition of a cupcake (which is totally refreshing in our non-conference schedule). They lost to that Man Mouth team we destroyed by 4 touchdowns two weeks ago.

Line: UNI (-35.5)

UNI 56
Hampton 6

Starters, and anyone that really contributes, out early because of the short week.

Also several (thousand) good seats still available. Tell your friends.

Anything other than a 40 or 50 plus point win, that includes emptying the entire bench, will be disappointing.

So...anybody going to the game?

I'm stuck in IC all day, but I'm going to try to listen to it on the radio

[clenz]

Lots of excitement for the home opener and the football team it seems

[achrist70]

Farley is notorious for playing starters too long in a game like this.

Hoping we get up big early on our way to a 30+ point win.Then I hope we get to see a lot of the 2's and maybe even some of our True Freshman with the redshirt rule. We'll be there and tailgating. Should be a beautiful day - i hope the crowd surprises me and we draw 14K but i'm guessing it will be more like 12k.

[TravelingPanther]

Is tomorrow family day or anything? I'm guessing more like 10K. I watched the Hampton Monmouth game and if we lose this game this will be the worst season and in Panther history. Our second string should be able to win this game on their own if the entire first string came down with mono

[BCPanther]

Over 6000 tickets available and that doesn't include the 1000+ student tickets that won't be used. I'm guessing they'll announce around 10k, but it'll be like 7k in the building.

Our days of drawing 14k for anything other than Homecoming and maybe parent's weekend are over until we start winning games we should.

I will be there. Looking forward to nice weather, some tailgating, and possibly the lone stress free easy W on our schedule this year.

[Born-a-Panther]

It's Hall of Fame game, and apparently, we are celebrating John Deere's 100 years as a Cedar Valley business during the game tomorrow. Just saw something about that on Twitter this morning, though it was the first I'd heard of it.

As I mentioned in another thread, if only UNI had a promotions web page (like Iowa) that has all the special event games listed for all the sports (HOF, family day etc in football; star wars night, trick or treat night, pink out in volleyball; etc) where everything could be looked up one site, instead of having to go to each sports schedule page to see what the special event is. Maybe next year......

There used to be a "promotions" page on the website, but I don't know if many people were ever actually aware of it (which kind of defeats the purpose), and it may have never even been properly updated.

There is also a "promotions" page on the unitix website, but it doesn't seem to be updated or in use

no parking in any of the grass lots for Saturday's game. Also no "HyVee Fan Zone" due to the recent rain.

Wow...they added lots east of Hudson to paid parking?

Yeah I noticed that too. Probably because people parked there during game to avoid parking fee.
