Just a little reminder for those that might still think that the game is at 1pm like your ticket says (season tix holders) , so no one is confused.

After walking back from the Ice Arena tonight, I cannot help but think that attendance is going to be seriously hurt by the weather. It was 5 degrees exiting the IA tonight, and between the IA and Harshman I ran the whole way, and my body was almost half frozen by the time I got inside. How many people who went to hockey tonight are saying to themselves, "no way, I'm not doing that again tomorrow going to and from AA!!"

As it is, I think we'll win this game big, and the fact that we are playing Toledo should counterract the weather conditions.

If they are thinking that I don't want them there, they aren't true fans. I don't care what the weather is, I'll be there on the baseline in all orange, and I hope everyone else is too, and if your scared of the cold, wear layers.


GO FALCONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was cold as balls tonight. I remember my freshman year I had to walk a term paper from Darrow to the Psych Building and the windchill was -28. Tonight was the coldest I've been since then.


But yeah -- if a little wind and ice is going to keep you from seeing the number 16 Falcons pound the living crap out of Toledo, something's wrong with you.

Put on a parka and get your ass to the gym.

From Maureen's article today:

"The 1986-87 Falcons, who won the program's first MAC championship, will be honored at the game. Other BGSU women's basketball alumni will be in attendance as well."

Should be a pretty cool reunion!

Playing on Super Bowl Sunday though. Couldn't they have played this yesterday? For real. Regardless, I won't be there, so who cares? Go BG, and GO BEARS!!!

BG and slUT played last Super Bowl Sunday in Toledo and got a good crowd, so I guess they decided to to it again this year

Yep, what he said. Its rather shamefully that falcon hockey who is done for in the season gets 3k + in the Ice Arena but our #16 lady falcons can only scrap up a crowd of 1400 or so every game. They deserve 3k more than any major BG sport going on right now. That being said the falcon icers were playing a #2 ND so opponent probably has more to to do with it than anything esle sadly.

Exactly right. If we were playing a team like Ferris, we'd be looking at an attendance like maybe 396

That could have been a lot uglier...

Down 15 at one point early, BG uses a 10-0 run to get back in it and trails by just 3 at the half. With this team? I expect them to clamp down on D, and let the shots happen and be up by a dozen midway through the second half...

C'MON BG!!!

Yeah, Toledo surprised us a little bit early and shot the lights out in the first 7 minutes or so. But that's turning around now. We'll win this one handily.

Aren't you a student? Why aren't you at the game?

Looks like a nice crowd on the TV.

I think they said 2,323 are there. Best of the season -- and I'm betting the women's average has now passed the average for the men.

That was a valid question. This game was actually the first women's game of the season (with school in session) that I didn't go to. I stayed in the dorm because I was watching the Pistons-Cavaliers game, and once that was over, I don't know, I decided not to go for some reason.

Ah well, I'll be there on Wednesday.

That it has -- they were only down by something like 7 per game.

Whodathunk the women could ever outdraw the men here?
