Post by BGSUFootballFan »

Anyone else notice when you go to the BGSU main athletic site their is a big add for football and GRIT IRON! I thought the football field was referred to as a Gridiron, am I wrong?
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!

It's a play on words...y'know "grit"=toughness and "iron"=strong , resolute, not easily broken.
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.

Just be glad there isn't a really high tower on campus...I suppose the library would suffice, but I have a feeling Macman has an aversion to books.
