yea that will be a good game BG vs Boise, but i highly doubt it gets gameday, we'll see i guess
4th & 13 on PU 32yd line.. 56,000 fans up on their feet screaming, i held my breath the entire play trying to make as little noise as possible.. wouldnt u know Sharon would make the biggest touchdown catch in the history of BG Football, FALCON UP!

ask the dolphins about that. lol :axe:
Ricki Williams and freak injuries had quite a bit more to do with their season last year than Wandstedt.


The thing I don't understand about ESPN doing Gameday for an ND game....doesn't that give free expousure to NBC?

I'm a little older - 34. Living in Cleveland, I grew up on ND. There is truly a mystique about them. I think even through trying times, they are a good program that tries to do the right thing. If I recall their graduation rate is one of the highest.

I will always cheer for ND unless they ever play BG!

no, because nbc only has notre dame's home games. its away games are broadcast by whomever has the opponent's tv rights, or whoever buys them for the day.

I'd definately say that it would be a pretty good choice to go to Pitt for this game, especially with the two new coaches both having high expectations.
Yeah, I never expected Gameday to be in Madison for our game. I expect them to be in Boise for our game.

I believe it was posted around here that this was supposed to be the 2nd or 3rd best game of the entire season... :twisted:

And by the way, I'm dead serious. :!:
Gameday is only on Saturday's, the Boise game is scheduled for a Wednesday.

Dave Wannstedt is a joke of a coach. If you don't think so, just look at his success not only in Miami but CHICAGO. He was 1000x's worse there and the only reason he got the job in Miami is because of Jimmy Johnson. That program is headed downhill and fast.

that explains last years horrible season...what about the two years they had ricky, and had no significant injuries and missed the playoffs? what about the inability to win big games late in the season? thats on the coaches
