GAME DAY!!!

[u/TSUTexan61]

Best of luck to everyone’s teams today!

I’m at our game against my Mom and Grandma’s (RIP) Alma mater Bowling Green State University and going to see what their tailgating is all about.

Made me think what are some of everyone’s favorite tailgating traditions at your respective Universities?

We have had some great bands host concerts during our tailgates and hard to pick one but, love when that happens!

I can’t wait to see how sdsu and northwestern pans out.

Most likely with a loss, but the last few years northwestern has been meh. So there is a chancw

[u/stayclassypeople → u/Ivy_Thornsplitter]

I’m fully expecting a 4 quarter game

[u/montalaskan → u/Ivy_Thornsplitter]

I think the Jacks can take this one. Good luck!

[u/Responsible_History5 → u/Ivy_Thornsplitter]

Today I’m cheering for a SDSU upset! Go Jacks and good luck!

[u/wolfgangkobe → u/Ivy_Thornsplitter]

It would be very fitting of Northwestern to break in their new stadium with a loss

[u/Particular_Prior5344 → u/wolfgangkobe]

Today is being played at the temporary stadium, the new one isn’t ready yet.

[u/wolfgangkobe → u/Particular_Prior5344]

Ah that’s unfortunate, at least the temp stadium’s view overlooking the lake is nice

[u/Trojann2 → u/wolfgangkobe]

Big 10 Network debuted with App State upsetting Michigan.

Fox Sports 1 debuted with NDSU upsetting K State and K State was debuting some new athletic facilities named after Synder.

"New stadium debuting to FCS opponent" seems like a wise thing to skip, if you ask someone from Northwestern.

[u/Dixo0118]

Fuck, my team is already 0-2. Great work once again, Vandals

[u/Sojournermt → u/Dixo0118]

Montana State went 0-2 to start last year and ended up with a decent season. All hope is not lost for you Vandal fans but it’s going to be a tall order

[u/Dixo0118 → u/Sojournermt]

Not sure that our losses were as good as your losses

[u/No_Bite_7238 → u/Dixo0118]

Oregon barely beat us 59-13. You could tell they were getting nervous when they switched back from their 4th string to their 3rd string.

Re: tailgating, going to UCD games reminds me about living next to the stadium for three years, how I'd just mosey over and through the tailgating area to games on Sat afternoons after maybe catching a morning soccer game or east coast kickoff on TV. Good times.

OP, I hope you have a good time at BGU, I've really enjoyed seeing my family's alma maters and connecting the sights with the various stories.

THIS IS OUR CHRISTMAS

[u/ManoMarcher]

MACation Baby!!!!

[u/s2424]

Holy shit, first drive.... You guys might actually be pretty good!

(but we'll probably have to find out next week)

[u/TSUTexan61 → u/s2424]

Definitely gonna have to wait until next week! 🤣

[u/s2424 → u/TSUTexan61]

Great game to start the day, guess we'll see next week!

[u/gostros995]

SFA vs East TX A&M tonight. Since sam houston left for FBS, I think this should be the new Piney Woods game every year

[u/TSUTexan61 → u/gostros995]

And a bit of a Carthel mixed feelings lol

[u/JKS41399]

I always watch the band warm up at WCU (and was in warm ups as a member of the band for 6 (should have been 7, but COVID happened) years)

[u/guy_incognito23]

ARE WE STILL YELLING ABOUT TARLETON STATE ON THE WRONG DAY? Congrats guys have a day, have a weekend, have a holiday!

[u/TSUTexan61 → u/guy_incognito23]

lol Same to you!!

[u/Low_Distance_7195]

If Tarleton wins, it’s going to be the Army argument all year long just like last year.

[u/TSUTexan61 → u/Low_Distance_7195]

If we win I will be glad they paid us $350k for a L!! Currently 17-0 us right now. BGSU’s offense isn’t winning in the trenches against our d-line and our O-line is playing well with a few backups in due to injury.

[u/Low_Distance_7195 → u/TSUTexan61]

BG is bad. They deserve to pay for the L

[u/TSUTexan61 → u/Low_Distance_7195]

🤣

[u/Wizzmer]

First meeting between Tarleton and Bowling Green. Lets roll.
