Next game- isu at Bradley, Tuesday, Feb. 9, 7:05 pm
Students are so busy that they cannot get to ONE game a year during the week against our biggest rival.
The only thing that makes this game tough is that it's also Greek Chapter night... Usually start around 9, so people don't want to go to only half of the game...
There SHOULD just be a mandatory cancelation of all events from 6-10 so students can go!
Students are so busy that they cannot get to ONE game a year during the week against our biggest rival. More excuses from the student body is all that is. Relax and watch it on TV? Student life is so hard. I can't wait to see these students get jobs, have kids and have to really pay bills. Yea, a weekend game would be sweet but how many ISU fans make the trip during the week down here? More excuses is all I'm hearing and Chico's posts ring truer every time I hear one. You know the game will be played so study early and do not procrastinate. I can understand if you have a test the next day but otherwise you can head to the game and still be home to enjoy the 11 o'clock news and be tucked in.
I honestly wouldnt even worry about the student section. I've heard more clueless students who couldnt name 3 players on our team saying they are going tonight. The 'blackout' also seems semi popular to talk about. Whether fans that arent up to the date with the team are considered good or bad, the students will show.
"We're sitting here, and I'm supposed to be the franchise player, and we're talking about practice. I mean listen, we're sitting here talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game, but we're talking about practice"
Plus there's a facebook group so no college student has any reason to say they didn't know about the game.

According to ever reliable social networking, 282 students are going. Thats like 7 times the normal amount.

a comment from the release.....
"Taylor Brown??™s scoring increase of 10.4 points from last season ranks among the nation??™s top 10 improvements."
I hope he has the same degree of improvement again next year!
His FT percentage is up from 54% last season to 82%!

I agree as its always very easy to make excuses on why you can't do things...
My thought is always, if you want to be there, you will find a way to get there!

This is why there needs to be a sign on every student seat reading...."Come watch Bradley take on #18 Nothern Iowa in a regionally televised game saturday at 1:05."

You are asking for so much. I guarantee that half the students there would only be able to name SS and maybe one other player when asked, and thats merely a result of his 6 year 'legacy'. Its a good idea, but we are already marketing a blackout, lets not ask for too much
"We're sitting here, and I'm supposed to be the franchise player, and we're talking about practice. I mean listen, we're sitting here talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game, but we're talking about practice"
Not sure if you're being saracastic or not, but why wouldn't the marketing department use what is always the biggest game of the year for student turn out to try to drive attendance further. I bet 1/3 of the students there tonight will not even know we have a game Saturday, and when they have a blast and we win they'll be ready to come back. I know most won't know what is going on during the game, but I'm sure it's like that everywhere, it's just a chance for kids to get out have fun and yell. It does seem sad that students have to be spoon fed when games are and why they should go, but hey whatever works to get feet in front of seats.

So I am wondering who is suspended or injured for tonight's game...the line has moved 4 points from last night's opener of BU -2.5, and I have gotten no response that we have a full roster.

How about this - Just a 'Yes' or a 'No' - Will BU's active roster tonight include the following players -
Andrew Warren
Sam Maniscalco
Taylor Brown
Will Egolf
Chris Roberts
Dyricus Simms-Edwards

The line might have changed due to it being Greek Chapter night, the snow keeping our student body away and ISU students taking over our student section for lack of use.

I have heard nothing, but the silence by some 'in the know' tells me that all may not be right on the Hilltop. Just speculating, take it for nothing more than that...
I can't wait to see these students get jobs, have kids and have to really pay bills. Yea, a weekend game would be sweet but how many ISU fans make the trip during the week down here?
