I know that people on the message boards are obviously fans, but there appear to be way too many tickets still available for this game Saturday. That is unacceptable folks, which means you need to get there come hell or high water and bring friends or family as necessary. My kid has soccer, blah blah blah doesn't cut it. My kids have soccer too, and guess what they are going to the Bearcat game with Daddy to watch a Top 15 ranked team. Soccer will be there on Monday again for them.

Think of that speech that Mel Gibson gave in Braveheart to the troops and whether you really want to be part of letting this current incredible opportunity to truly establish Bearcat football on the national scene pass us by due to indifference.

Obviously there is some case out there where a true fan just flat out cannot make it for some reason, but don't be that person who chooses to stay at home and then regrets it when Fresno State upsets the Bearcats with a few less thousand fans in the stands in the near term and then the program can't take that next big step in the long term.

And this actually could be the most talented opponent other than West Virginia to play at Nippert all season.
