    If computers ruled college basketball the way they do football, we'd have skipped all this March Madness monotony and just waited a month for the Kansas-Kentucky title game. And watched Northern Iowa play Cornell in the Poulan Weedeater Bowl. ~ Dwight Perry The Seattle Times

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.

          Is anyone interested in getting together before the game? We could have a PN.com pre-game rally over at Peppers from Noon - 2:00 PM. Reply if you are interested.

            The first time that ESPN will be in the Dome since the 1990 conference tourney. This will be huge. I saw where there are alot of tickets already gone, but there are still plenty of tix left. Maybe Peppers, Becks, Mulligans, etc...could put on some pre-game parties for everyone...and then offer shuttles to the game. I think they did that back in the day for the first Iowa/UNI game.

            Any word on if there are any available bleachers for the end zones? What about the soccer bleachers? Can they be moved into the Dome? Are there any softball bleachers that are movable? With the Deuce coming to town it would be great to put our facilities in the best light....not just the usual. Recruits, kids across Iowa, alumni, and families across the midwest will watch this game....and if they like what they see, they might want to come to a game, give to the university, buy merchandise, etc... I would think we would want to do whatever we can to make things look super nice. Regardless, this is great exposure for our favorite team/university.

                  I have a dream!

                  Saturday, February 19, 2005. I have a dream that this day will be the first time in many years that a game will be televised to a national audience from Cedar Falls, Iowa! I have a dream that many UNI alums from the Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Quad Cities areas will decide to get into their cars, drive to Cedar Falls and buy a ticket for the first time in many years since they graduated from UNI...maybe the first time ever! I have a dream that those fans will pack the Dome for that national television audience and show the country that we care about Panther basketball in the state of Iowa! I have a dream that students who have been passionate about the purple and gold will be able to have some good, clean fun with the Western Michigan bench and make the UNI-DOME a TOUGH place to play! I have a dream that many of my PantherNation.com brethren will congregate at Pepper's for a post-game victory toast as UNI moves one game closer to being considered 'on the bubble' for the NCAA Tournament!

                  Can you see these things? Dare to dream Panther fans! We've got a little over a week and a half to get the word out to everyone you know! If you are a Panther fan and you know others who would normally not drive to CF for a game...convince them that this is the time! If you're in Des Moines or Cedar Rapids or the Quad's...come on up for the game and add to the atmosphere! Let's get behind this team with more than just our words on this site! Come on! Who's with me???? (anyone else picture Belushi in Animal House?)

                  Let's go Panther fans! Let's show up and have a ball for al of the nation to see Saturday, February 19th at 3:00 PM!!!!!!

                    Let's not forget that the NIT selection committee will be watching all of these games to see what kind of crowds these "mid majors" will have. Just in case we don't get into the NCAA Tourney, the NIT would be the next best thing. The NIT doesn't want to see a "post season atmosphere" of 4,000 people. That doesn't bring them anything!

                    2317- I see your dream...Let's do what we can to publicize this thing. As soon as UNI posts something on their website regarding this as a "Pack the Dome" game, I will send out emails to all news outlets in the Des Moines area, email all the local radio stations, and do whatever else I can do to get the DM area well represented. I ask those in Cedar Falls/W'loo and Cedar Rapids area to do the same.

                      I'm in, I like Pepper's and beer. Or Mulligan's and beer. Even the Panther Lounge and beer. Plus a sweet Panthers game. Hopefully WMU gets on a roll as well.

                      The extra seats on the ends would be a great idea as well.

                        This is extremely exciting news! I will do my part to get people to the dome the 19th. I plan on spreading the word through posters, etc within my dorm and possibly, if my schedule allows it, to other dorm buildings. I also know several UNI grads that may be willing to make the drive here for the game that I plan to pursuade.
                        Someone had mentioned on here before about attempting to get everyone to wear gold... is that something we want to spread the word about?
                        I am sooo excited about this game! GO PANTHERS!!!

                          Yes, I think pack the Dome with gold would be good. Let's see what promos come out of this before we start spreading the word on that. I would hate to see some casual UNI fans coming to the dome wearing their only gold t-shirt (an Iowa one).

                          I know the UNI marketing dept will do a great job. Let's see what they do, and then we can feed off of that.

                            the promotions department have not said anything, but under the promotions link, they have the game as "purple pride"

                            will they that eveyone to wear purple?

                              A Panther Nation get together before the game sounds good to me!!
                              "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."
