How in the world does Robert Morris have a rivals site?

It didn't exist when we played them two years ago.

ETSU is a 8.5 point favorite.

Looks like section V (silver) is about the only section left with tickets.

It's time to lay down an old fashioned ass whipping on them. I mean like one of those deals like ya momma used to give ya where you had to go pick your own switch, and you damn sure better not come back with something that's going to break either. That kind of ass whipping.

Sell-out for tomorrow! SRO tickets remain.

A smaller place sure looks so much better than a half empty, overbuilt place. Latest example — Ga Southern’s Thursday night TV game. Virtually that whole additional upper deck, empty. Now, on the other hand. Sure hope ETSU GROWS its program into a full upper deck.

ETSU just punted from the RMU 40. That’s a head scratcher

That running into the kicker call was horrible

Georgia Southern's AD and coach have turned off their fanbase.

Not pretty but it’s a win. Ready to pull the upset next week at western

Good defensive effort, very uninspired everywhere else. Glad we got the win in probably our worst performance of the season.

We will get ran out of Cullowhee if we play like that next week. Second week in a row without Stinson. Seemed like Rogers had been our best back lately, and he gets 0 carries. I've always thought Falon Lee had a quick step, and he showed it a couple of times today, just nowhere to run. We had a couple of key drops this week that we usually don't have.

We are really fortunate on turnovers, but we are holding on to the ball well.

Another note....campus was alive today like I've never seen it.

The campus gameday atmosphere was super. Also was hopping on Friday night with homecoming Parade and fireworks. Unfortunately most people ( other than the students ) did not know about the Friday nite activities. Need better pub on events.

Defense won game. Offense was dull. First offensive play was off tackle for 0 yards. Ran same play on first down three straight series and three other series. Was minus yards for all six carries. Buc offense is IMO, is so predictable. Nearly always behind the chains after 1st and 2nd downs. 3rd down, here comes the blitz. The few passing plays they involved the TE and RB gained good yardage.

Glad to get the W any way we can. It's a nice measure of progress made since playing them year one. Yesterday was my first time in the sun baked east stands and I need to apologize for slamming the early departures of fans at earlier games. Holy smokes was it miserable in that heat.
We moved to the home side at halftime and it was a totally different and more pleasant experience.

Yeah, it was crazy. I'm seeing a lot of people there who have no affiliation with ETSU other than living and working in the tri-cities. I would love to see an aerial shot of the tailgating. It looked like lot 22 was almost completely full.

The folks that used to go to ETSU when we had football kept talking about how great it was and how they wished we had something like that back then. Ran into quite a few folks from outside the area that made long commutes to be there. These things are good signs for the future attendance and viability of the sport. The newness of the stadium helps, and hopefully we can win consistently to keep them coming back.

The Citadel game was hell.

They need to steal another one. Two games for sure they should win that are left on the schedule, if somewhere between Samford, Wofford, and Western they can get one win, that makes for a damn good season in this year and sets up for my opinion a PLAYOFF run next year.
