Twas the night
Twas the night before bliss-mas,
And all through the stadium,
Not a creature was stirring,
Not even Tom Brady with helium.
ODU fans are all snuggled in their beds,
Visions of bowl invites dancing in their heads,
Cleats were hung by the lockers with care,
In hopes Saturday would soon be there.
I heard it would be cold, but no snow,
Who cares when you are going for 5 wins in a row,
No football last year was a pain,
But what they are doing now is insane.
I heard a stir and jumped from my bed,
I looked all around and it wasn't coming from the Ted,
To my surprise it was coach Rahne working hard at night,
Working on a game plan to show Charlotte they were going to be in a fight.
O what a sight to see and hear,
As bowl eligibility was near,
I was so excited, I shouted out with glee,
Kornblau Field is going to be the place to be.

Jaybird, try to get the ragtag bearded flannel club in section 209 to start the wave while on defense!?! When I came over to try to find ya last game they were trying hard to start it but never made it out of section 210. I've tried starting it in my section but I look like a drunk person with tourettes.

I miss the wave but it was much better with a full stadium. Hope we will see that tomorrow.
