All home games, and hopefully Liberty and ECU.

Hey AGGIE, I remember the 2013 ECU game, We had a quick tailgating meet-up that year. Maybe we will be able to have a repeat of history for this year. Hopefully with a different outcome for the final score. Two great QB's that year, Heinicke for ODU and Carden from ECU. That was a fun game to watch. ODU was in that game all the way, at least up till the last half of the 4th quarter.

That was at a time when ODU was getting lots of buzz all over the Country. The Athletic Department was working hard to get ODU great Press and killing the art of scheduling. Somehow we have lost the mojo we had at that time and the energy that surrounded the program has been squashed.... IMO. It feels like the Athletic Department has lost their leadership or the motivation to promote and create the excitement we had just a few years ago. I hope the New Stadium's activity and all the news surrounding the rebuild will rejuvenate that feeling. We need to have good news and excitement return like we once had.

This was GREAT and I hope ODU will do something like this when VA Tech comes to Forman Field. What Tech did in Blacksburg with the joint bands (ODU and Tech) was really fun and emotional to witness.

OT, that was a great trip and a great game, except for the final score. It was also great parking the car, getting out and recognizing you guys for some fun tailgating. Don't know if we will make it this year or not. Looking forward to September! Cheers!

Hopefully all the home games. I would love to make a 2nd away ECU game but travel games aren't in the current life plan. Having a kid starting to play sports might be a issue. I'll be 100% traveling to away games in 16 years. =]
