Yes a huge game with perfect weather! I have season tickets but I bought some extra tickets for people at work and I think it will be sold out with a new record set for the crowd. Go Bucs!

RE: Official Game Thread: VMI
Seats are already pretty limited at this point- most of the remaining availability is in section U.

This is obviously a huge game. I don't think that the conference will get 4 teams in the playoffs. If we win Saturday and then against Western Carolina, ETSU should be a playoff lock regardless of the outcome of the Mercer game or what UTC does the rest of the way.

Looks like there is less than 250 tickets available (not counting hillside). Weather looks great, should be a packed house! Looking forward to it!

Of course we want to win out, for Mercer to win next week, and take it all with that final Mercer home game.

Another great home game! The defense really still stood up today.

We have to lead the conference in getting TDs taken off the board by the refs this year. The officiating continues to be beyond bad.

Yes it is hard to believe SoCon refs. I have never seen points taken off the board like we have endured. Bucs over came it and finally won. VMI is a great team and fought hard the entire game. So glad to get the win and move on to play a very good WCU team!

While there have been a number of terrible calls.........I'm not sure that was the case today (mostly). I've been wondering all season about the overall poise of a lot of the players - or a few of them. It's been slightly reminiscent of some of Cavan's players. Not anything dirty - just getting too excited and thus get carried away. And I know.................it's a fine line between enthusiasm and a step or push too far. The (correct) taunting calls against us are exhibits #1 and #2 along those lines. A team "culture" that even allows that as a consideration or even an instinctive reaction is a bit uncontrolled. Every game, including today, there were some very short instances where I was afraid the taunting line could be crossed. Anybody else had those musings?

RE: Official Game Thread: VMI
While not a fan of the teams Jason Witten has played for, I've always admired his near-stoic demeanor, even when getting a big touchdown or whatever. He just hands the ref the ball. A testament, imo, to his raisin' by his grandfather. Just play the game; let your actions do the talking. This actually bothers me quite a bit. Certainly ETSU is not unique in this; just sayin'. Doesn't have to be this way.

RE: Official Game Thread: VMI
Agree 100%. I know at least once I was looking for the flag after our player stood over a VMI player in what appeared to be a vaunting manner. Also, I am looking for the time when an offense goes hurry up on us after our defense has made a big play and our player is 20-30 yards into the backfield strutting around.

Was the campus as beautiful as ever with all the fall foliage at it's peak splendor donning the entire campus for Homecoming? Boy, do I wish I could have been there to witness a great football game and see our campus at one of the most beautiful times of the year. Our campus is 2nd to none as far as beauty during the spring and fall seasons of the year.

It was beautiful and showcased like never before. If anyone has not seen our campus lately it is worth the trip to see. It really looks like a college campus and the football stadium packed with people was the best thing I have ever seen. Go Bucs!
