Should be interesting at The Tub on Saturday. From reading GoHens.net, Saturday is the annual Beast of the East high school wrestling tournament (http://www.beastwrestling.com/) at the Bob Carpenter Center (adjacent to The Tub south end zone) with over 100 teams from several states. Parking is going to be very interesting. I wonder if they'll block off sections for football or if it'll be every man for himself? What a mess! :lol:

ESPN2 and ESPNU? Really? :ohno:
The TV coverage of the last 3 playoff games gets sorrier every year.

The almighty FBS bowl schedule starts Saturday I believe. ESPN wouldn't want to tie up a primary channel with lowly D2 football. ;)

Does basic cable have The U? I have digital with packages, so I really don't know. Not trying to be a wise ass.

If you don't have the U on your cable, you can always find it streaming online

I'm not sure about you upstaters, but The U is channel 730 on Comcast down here. I'll be at the game, so just providing this as a PSA.

Speaking of prostates, are you going to the game old timer? ;) You're favorite southern FCS school is coming to your doorstep again.

Just fine, thank you! :tothehand:

I was pulling for the Friday night game. Not sure I can make it on Saturday. :(

Well what was the highest attendance of any of the games last week? 15,000?

Honestly I don't even want the rest of the national seeing how pathetic the attendance has been in the playoffs this year.

And with Montana not in, and Appy State making an early exit the numbers will only get worse. :coffee:

Honestly I can't blame ESPN for not wanting to show 1/2 full small stadiums on their flagship channels.

I don't ask for big numbers, I don't expect it. I expect your team to be able to fill it's stadium to at least 85% of the capacity for the damn playoffs.

Sorry that is my rant for this playoffs now that my Cats are out. I love this division of football and it pains me to see that fans can't even pack their house for a playoff game.
