Thanks, but I dunno, MP. As I said last week, it gets harder and harder to insult YSU, but, on the other hand, ILSU material is easing to come by after the whompin' last week.

I can only imagine how much you laugh when typing that.....you should include a sample of your writing every time time you apply for a job.

Yeah, I'm sure a potential employer would just love,

"Illinois State couldn't pull a sick whore off a toilet right now."

Employers like creativity. And they like winners - for example, the two UNI intramural flag football championships my team won is clearly displayed at the top of my resume.

Cap'n -

Are you perhaps picking the Penguins will defeat SIU...in hopes to prove that SIU is not the juggernaut they seem to be at fist glance?

To me...it looks like another year when SIU will dominate the Gateway then lose in the first round of the playoffs...once again disproving to the rest of I-AA that the Gateway is toughest conference.

Luther....................when are you going to drag your butt back here for a game?

Question I put on AGS is if YSU does beat SIU this weekend does that make the UNI vs YSU game as hot as next weeks game against SIU ? would be great to see 2 sell outs !

IF we beat WIU in Macomb the week between SIU and YSU.

Wouldn't it be nice to not have to question this anymore based on if UNI is playing a "good" team? Someday, I hope that it is rare to not have a capacity crowd for games.

I agree I still cant figure out why its not sold out all the time with a team that 7-4 is considered a off year ! its not even 17,000 there is no reason that it shouldnt be full all the time except there is to may people in the area that would on a normal basis rather drive to Ames or Iowa City instead of going to a great game in their own back yard

I believe that UNI really only approaches the sellout level crowds when UNI is ranked #1 or maybe #2 late in the season. So, it is really up to UNI to stay undefeated to get the huge crowds. It's a shame, but a #8 ranked excellent UNI team will not generate enough excitement in the media.

If only they could create some sort of machine that could capture moving images while you were away from home and then you could watch the images when you returned home from the UNI game. Someday maybe that will be reality.

Believe or not, that does exist! It's called a "picture radio." Not real big yet but it's gaining popularity.

This is the challenge for UNI and I think we are getting there. I truly believe that people are turning on to UNI football and not letting the IA / IAA (FCS) thing hang them up as much. Seems to be much more local UNI pride in recent years, and I'm sure that is due to the success of our programs as much as any lack of success in Iowa City or Ames.
