It doesn't need to be an either/ or situation, but priority needs to be assessed for each issue. The NCAA, in all their glory, does still have a limited number of resources to be investigating all of these issues. I'd think their priorities would lie with an issue (kids getting paid and admitting it) that is currently against the bi-laws, as opposed to something which is perfectly legal, but might be opening itself up to shadiness.
Fair enough. It is another perspective. My only contention is plays occuring on the other end of the field were difficult for me to judge the yardage gained. I also had seats in the endzone, but that was before the MEGA screens went in, so that might alleviate some of my issue.
Section 26 fills up fastest becuase the band takes up the first 30 rows or so.
Anymore the bottom of sections 28-32 fill up first as those are generally the section to get face time on TV and where the players will rush to at the end of the game.
I sit in section 25 because I believe that has the best sight lines as you are closer to mid-field. I'll be in the stands only because I cannot get a decent amount for my tickets.
I love the neapolitan style pizzas. For that, Mani's takes it in taste over the cheaper options in the area.
They weren't focused on cost, it was all about how good the food actually is. I eat at Mani's at least once a month for the pizza only. I am always full eating less than a pizza. It is the size of a medium pizza from anywhere else. If you want any type of pizza other than neapolitan style, don't eat at Mani's.
Neo Papalis is also along the same lines, but with a cheaper price point and almost no wait. They aren't cheap either if you start adding toppings on above their standard template. 3 toppings at NP will result in a pizza as costly as Mani's...
Everyone's tastes are different. Your mileage may vary.
I didn't see a RB try to juke air in the back field once last game. I am really hoping that the coaches are just doing the typical coach-speak about the RB situation being a 3 person race with Fitz in it. I haven't seen anything from Fitz all season that really stands out as being a go-to RB. The Green run around the edge and trucking that DB was the most exciting run from a RB all year. How sad is that?
You will not have to go 2-3 hours before kick off to get a good seat. I strolled in 30 minutes before kick off for Nebraska and was in row 8.
Students are trying like hell to sell their tickets on CL. There are a ton of tickets flooding the market right now. Regardless of the game this week, the earliest you would need to arrive to get within the bottom 10 rows would be 1 hour before, at best.
ND was the only game that I had to line up 3 hours early for and was still in row 15.
Had Kerridge actually hit that block we wouldn't be talking about this, certainly. The play looks like it is meant to go outside of the tackle and still could have seen a decent gain had Gardner not tripped trying to read the crashing corner. Instead he tripped and fell towards the line instead of being able to run to the edge where most of the D-line and LB's were sealed.
On the other hand, the point about never optioning someone is completely valid here. The scheme doesn't make sense, but could have avoided a crappy ending with better execution. [/Hoke speak]
Yeah, I don't know where you are seeing those ticket prices, but I just went on to mgoblue and could get tickets below the red line for $25....$35 for tickets behind the benches at the faceoff circle and $43 for mid ice.....
You are correct. That is the only consistent song I can recall repeatedly played for 3rd down attempts. They will mix in seven nation army into a few third downs.
The fans tend to be louder when seven nation army is played so that may come during 3rd down plays which might be foreseen to be big in terms of timing in the game.
I too hope this. I think it looks like a big slap in the face to have the 8:00pm time slow against a team which you should beat soundly. I think every "expert" will have UofM on upset alert after last week and ABS/ESPN is trying to rack in the viewer numbers due to it.
With how UofM should play and the quality of oppponent this game should be a 3:30 start on ESPN2 or BTN....
The tickets that weren't sold and seats that were obviously empty were the single game tickets which are no above the student section. Those seats were empty all game.
You either need to have the entire stadium filled with season ticket holders or a schedule without any cupcakes to ensure the insatiable appetite for UofM football never outlives the supply of tickets. This week, that appetite resembled an aenorexic chick.
All you people complaining about the student section need to look at the now public section above the students. It was empty the entire game not just before kick off. Brandon couldn't even sell all of the tickets available because no one wanted to pay to watch that team. Dynamic ticket pricing needs to go both ways.
I have never seen an incident wear cutting the face mask off is necessary. There are only 4 screws that hold them on and I have seen times where they will unscrew those to remove the face mask.
I couldn't imagine them taking a sawzall or a cutoff wheel to a dude's helmet.
Yes. I only had to leave my tailgate 3 hours early to get good seats. I cannot wait for the line next week. GA kills the full game day experience for responsible students no matter what the rest of you think. ....
the cheesey fight scenes where there are thugs that have the hero surrounded but simply attempt to take him on 1 or 3 at a time and ultimately fail instead of everyone just trying to take him down at once. We are just missing the bad voice-overs on the film.
Seemingly is the key word. The dude might need to trim down or just get adjusted to the speed of the game at this level now. Why force it in a game situation when you can nuture it through practice?
That feeling I used to get as a kid on Christmas eve is now the feeling I get around this time each year. Brady is my Santa Claus bringing presents of TD's, and Mattison as his #1 assistant bringing a bag full of sacks! Or is it a sack full of bags....not sure, need mor Footbaaaw!

Yeah...2-3am on the west side of AA resulted in 1 meteor....I hated my wife for finding the story on her own and myself for believing it might be fun.
I will be relocating to McLean in the next month so I will be looking for places to hang on Saturdays as well.
...Because getting burned in the face means you need to take a shirtless selfie.
Good luck getting osu fans to understand witty banter.
Sorry, you are correct. 26 is the farthest section over and the band sits at the bottom of 27/28.
My apologies.
Put up storm shutters around the heart of your fandom. This one's gonna be rough!

F108 is clearly the best spork.

Huh? As of yesterday you could get tickets for $25 for BC plus a free ticket for the NDT..
I'm bias
#21...always #21
I'm bias because it has been my sports jersey number when I play any sport since I was a kid.
No ND hires of Weiss or Willingham? Come on...Those two were pretty terrible in their own regard.

Such an awesome gif...the face that Pelini gives after being shot is priceless.
Well, you can always look at the bright side. You're still a pessimist.
Can we get a gif of Jeremy Jackson pulling his best Chesson impression from the Gardner TD run? It looks he got a turkey!
'Tis all entertainment, sports entertainment.
I would love it if Holtz was legitimately flipping out though. Just not a fan of his...
As we must look at the positives in life, let is be noted that the student section did not attempt to start the wave this week...

It looks too much like sparty's logo for my taste.
I concur. There was no payoff. Not one of the funnier things I have seen here.

And with that donation he is now eligible to learn the secret location of Yost's seat in the stadium.
Lewan's one handed finish just is so morally demoralizing for the DE, it is the winner for me!

This is an awesome post. Great to hear about the history of Michigan football from someone who helped make it.

I see that the website still says all cushions are from the devil and shall be banned...Pretty confusing regardless of which is actually true.
Miss. Information...
Page 14 of the stadium guide says you can use and bring in seat cushions....
