I was just looking through the Directv schedule for Saturday and noticed that the Toledo/CMU game is the "MAC Game of the week" this Saturday, starting at noon on 637 FXOH and 638 FXCN. We'll have the dish hooked up and have the game on if anyone wants to stop by watch our next two opponents battle it out. This is assuming it doesn't get "blacked out" here.
We tailgate on the West Side (sorry), right to the west of the stadium. Look for the satellite dish on top of the truck.
are you showing it outside your truck or inside your truck??
what color truck u have? i wanna be able to stop by and watch the game because i think CMU can beat Toledo. we need a Toledo loss before we play them.
Outside. We open the tailgate and set the tube in the back. Green Ford Expedition.
I've heard that on Monday Toledo sold out of its allotment of tickets that CMU gave us. Since then people have been going through the CMU ticket office. Should be a nice crowd of Rocket fans there. Be sure to listen for the cowbells and sirens when UT scores!
Being that we'll be watching it on TV we should not only be able to hear them but we'll be able to see them around the necks of your cheerleaders.

West side? Tube??? Your other board name isn't NIU85Alum, is it?
No, one board name. Don't get on here much. Been following the Huskies since 1980. Same season tickets since then. Just thought if any wanted to stop by and watch they could. I ignore the alum posts, my time is too precious to waste it reading his crap.

HuskieSH, I will probably stop over and check up on the score of the game. Go Chips!
Maybe with some fundraising efforts we can get a direct tv rigged up on the Huskiemobile!
Is this game going to be on regular tv? For exapmle regular comcast cable?
I'd like to watch a bit of it before i go tailgate if it is going to be on.

Just curious as to why you want CMU to win? I would think you would want Toledo to be undefeated in conference coming into our game, so that if you win you can say it was against a very good opponent. Whether Toledo wins or loses at CMU, NIU would win the West assuming they win out and personally I think you will win every game except for Toledo.

Because they are playing Toledo

So if NIU ends up beating Toledo this year, you would rather them have 1 loss in conference coming in instead of zero losses? A loss to a CMU team that let's say NIU also beats, makes Toledo look a lot less good and makes it look more like NIU just won a division that didn't have any really good teams.
I gotta tell you that this is why I want to see Toledo 7-0 and NIU 6-1 (since you already have 1 loss) when we play so that if Toledo wins it will look better. Maybe that's just me though. I don't have anything against NIU and it seems that many NIU fans do have something against UT.
One more thing.......a Toledo win over CMU gives them that 2nd loss.
If CMU beats Toledo and then beats NIU, it's all but over and CMU goes to the MACC. If Toledo beats CMU and then CMU beats NIU, it is not over for NIU. UT could lose to NIU and BG (or even Ohio for that matter) and finish 6-2, along with CMU and NIU. In that case I believe it will come down to NIU or CMU because of crossover opponents record. Having played Buffalo will surely knock UT out in that scenario.
So to keep as many scenarios to win the West open as possible, I would think that NIU would want Toledo to beat CMU.

If someone out there already has DirecTV, they can get a 2nd receiver for I believe $5 a month and then give it to you to install in the bus.
