Methodist Game
Anyone going to Methodist game? I was going, but Hurricane Hannah may have changed my mind. Wife and 2 young kids may not do so well. I read i think in the Fayetteville paper, they were expecting 10,000 people. They are bringing in more seats.

RE: Methodist Game
I want to go, but I'll keep an eye on Hanna and will decide Thursday or Friday. Campbell has around 2,000 tix available for the game.

Wonder if they'll postpone or cancel it if it's bad Saturday?

It's football. Barring the game being directly in the eye of the storm it will be played.

Latest from WeatherUnderground....

Hanna will hit as a Cat 1 south of Myrtle Beach around 8AM Saturday. Not looking good for that 1pm kickoff.

Methodist had an open date last week....let's play it Thursday night!! (High schools are re-scheduling to Thursday.)

RE: Methodist Game
Another great afternoon of CU football, despite the loss. About 45-50% Orange in the crowd. With it being an away game, I could better focus on the team without all the extra pageantry of that first game at Campbell the week before.

Down 25-0, CU dug-in and played well in the 4th quarter. Coulda/shoulda/woulda been 32-28 if not for that last penalty. I wish we had a 5th quarter!!

Defense is looking good. Offense started looking good in the 2nd half. I'm sure they tried to correct some things on special teams this week.

Wonder if we'll see Methodist at the Creek next year?

RE: Methodist Game
Defense played well. Offense improved the 2nd half.

We need to run the ball a little more for ball control to give the defense time to rest. We have a good running back if the coaches will keep him in the game and make the right play calls.

The punting team needs some work. Not some - a lot of work. We are getting punts blocked right up the middle. That has to stop. In my opinion we cannot use the formation we are currently using if we want to be successful in the punting game. We have to get this fixed. Coach said this was his fault and they would be working on this in practice this week. I think they can get this fixed.

Overall have enjoyed the games and really look forward to our next home game. I hear that San Diego is pretty good. We might end up with an L but hopefully we will continue to make progress.

The players are really working hard and giving it their all.
