This season has sapped me of all joy this program used to give me. The product has largely sucked, the gametimes have sucked, and I just don't see the point to pay the $10 to park when I can sit on my ass in the warmth and see the game just as well. If we were competitive I'd be out there. If the game were on a Saturday afternoon, I'd be out there. But just don't feel like it anymore.
~ Well that certainly makes me feel better about my fandom
2.The product has largely sucked
~ 4-6 overall, 3-6 against I-A teams, 2-4 in the MAC. Yup, can't argue with that.
3.The gametimes have sucked
~ THIS! Two noon starts and two weekday night games = yuck. Only two games at either 4pm or 7pm, which I consider to be prime starting times. Our attendance this year was no doubt hurt by the poor starting times.
4.Paying $10 to park
Well, I usually park off campus or in the middle of campus near AA so I don't have to worry about that. Still, I can see where that would be a buzzkill.
Gosh we haven't even mentioned concessions yet...
In spite of all this BG is out to a good start here tonight.

Re: BEAT OHIO!
Almost an incredible catch by Jordan. Hopefully he's alright after that hit and hard landing.

Yeah, I'm definitely not a great BG fan anymore, but I really don't care. Football has stopped being fun for me, and I really think a STRONG case could be made to get rid of it. I still love the game, but the quality of the MAC product has gone to s**t and even when they play on Saturdays there are no less than 30 games going on that would be more entertaining than MAC football nowadays.
The only reason I ended up getting season tickets this year was for the tailgating, and even then we only had 2 really good tailgating game times anyhow. I think I'm pretty much done with season tickets now. Rather spend my dollars at the Stroh Center.
Re: BEAT OHIO!
Will we see any man and/or press coverage tonight? It looks doubtful at this point.

Re: BEAT OHIO!
7-3 Bowling Green leading late in the first quarter. Ohio's turned the ball over twice already.
EDIT: Not sure what Schilz is looking at on many of these passes, he should've been picked twice already.
Meanwhile, what's wrong with Schmeidebusch? He's already shanked two punts.

Re: BEAT OHIO!
Pretty clear that Ohio showed up not ready to play so far in this game. 3 fumbles (2 lost) and 2 dropped INT's
Have to capitalize on these mistakes before Ohio wakes up

Re: BEAT OHIO!
Pretty ugly game so far. Very few well executed plays. We have to take advantage of OU's slow start.

Nevermind our turn to give it away.
