Noah puts his undefeated record for live attendance at BG games (3-0) on the line Saturday. I'm confident his record will remain unblemished and here's how I see it all turning out ...

A) We will spend waaaaaaay too much at the bookstore, creating the double problem of having to pack more stuff into our already cramped luggage and explaining to my wife that an armload of BG stuff is more valuable than a car payment.

B) We will meet many folks from AZZ and have a blast before the game!

C) Final Score:
BG 59
WMU 20

D) Six TD passes Saturday for Omarvelous

E) Pope train rumbles for a c-note

F) Noah gets to meet more of the players and - fingers crossed - Coach Brandon. Cherry on the sundae - getting Deaudre Perry to sign his flag football jersey (orange #24).

G) We both get terrible stomachaches from eating nothing but junk for 36 hours.

H) The weather is perfect for a Fall day in NW Ohio and about 20,000 people fill the Doyt!

I) Noah covers his ears every time the cannon goes off and asks me, each time, "Why do they have to have that stupid cannon?"

J) We are bringing a hu-normous bag of Tootsie Rolls. We will throw half of them in the stadium. As a corollary to G, we will eat the other half.

K) Noah will be thrilled to see Freddie, but will refuse to go up and talk to him.

L) Defense causes two turnovers and registers at least four sacks.

M) Omar throws for 340

N) Noah gets to give a surprise to Grant. :)

0) Noah is TOTALLY surprised by the treat his father has arranged for immediately after the game. BWA-HA-HA-HA!

P) As a corollary to A, I will be torn between buying two items in the bookstore. Noah will look at me sagely and say, "Why don't you just get both." I will fall victim to his irrefutable logic.

Q) Noah will be torn between wearing one temporary tattoo and two.

R) Noah will tell me that he'd really like to have one of the new Falcons jerseys.

S) I'll tell him his father wants one, too.

T) We'll both sing along with AZZ and Forward Falcons!

U) I'll lose my voice by the third quarter

V) Noah's will start to give out in the fourth

W) Noah will jump into my arms practically every time the Falcons score.

X) Corollary to W ... I'll need traction by game's end.

Y) After the game, Noah will ask me if we're going to another game this year.

Z) When we get home, I'll ask my wife the same thing. :oops:
