Re: It's getting to be bowl season again....

We all know Bowl game committees like offense and have a "what have you done lately" mentality." They have short memories which means wins later in the season seem to mean more than early season wins. Well, the Falcons have done their part to impress Bowl committees. Consider these nu...

Re: Humanitarian Bowl nears 25,000 tickets sold

I don't pretend to understand the financial implications of attending the bowl games, but I know it's not a moneymaking proposition. For us it's about EXPOSURE. When Coach Clawson and his staff are sitting in a recruit's living room, this is just another chip to play when promoting the program. We a...

Re: Humanitarian Bowl nears 25,000 tickets sold

Article said, "Ticket sales for the Mid-American Conference School weren't available Thursday." However, if you continue down to read the "comments" being posted, they leave little doubt about which team any Boise fans who may be in attendance will be rooting for. So while we may...

Two different approaches to the BG/UT game

Found the two articles in The Blade today very interesting since each coaching staff seems to be taking a very different approach to this game. BG Approach: http://www.toledoblade.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20091125/SPORTS03/911250387" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; TU A...

Importance of attendance this Friday

I hate to start an attendance conversation, but the reality is that bowl representatives are not blind when it comes to half empty stadiums. This team is peaking at the right time for a bowl bid. They have a receiver making national headlines and a quarterback who has put up gaudy numbers-both very ...

Re: Bowl Projection

I may be reading too much into this, but the Headline on bgsufalcons.com reads: "Falcons Host Toledo With Possible Bowl Berth on the Line" That article comes from Dave Meyer, Assistant Director for Athletic Communications. It may be wishful thinking, but I'm guessing the athletic dept. doe...
