Speaking of IC sports info, they come out with a 2008 media guide for football yet?

Is the answer Jess Welch?

How many tickets get sold for a sell-out at Cortland's stadium?

Not that Fisher has any games in which there would be a threat of 'overcrowding', but the good thing about the design of Growney, is that I do not see that there would ever be a sell-out per se.  There is room for at least a couple-thousand standing room tix.  Everything is open within the stadium, plus, perhaps a thousand more could easily and comfortably watch the game with good view from the lawn/fields that surround the South/East endzone and the visitor's bleachers.

It's kinda like an all you can get scenario.  Now, of course if there was game with an anticipated crowd like that of Cortaca, that might force the Administration to actually count and limit ticket sales, so who knows?

Are you goading Pep here? Please, let's not go to the visitors' bleachers.

Where's the Cortaca thread? Isn't it time to start talking about Cortaca?

A one-loss Bomber squadron visiting a dungeon filled with unbeaten Red Dragons. Looks like it could be one of the best ever....and who knows, the two may meet again in the playoffs as has happened in the past at least once, right?

Pep there's something wrong or wierd with just about every stadium in the E8...

ie...the hillbilly music playing from the woods near AU, the creepy old guys heckling players behind the visitors bench at IC, the kindergarten playground atmosphere at Wick, those stupid cadets in the endzone that has more of a gay pride feel to it than a military feel at Wich, the lack of plumbing and visitor stands at SJF, I never played at Springfield but they're in the state of Massachusetts so there has to be something wrong with it and well just about everything at Utica.

Fisher posters = officially the whiniest. Ooo, and dew leaves them off the top ten in the ATR poll. Here it comes.

Pep, what do you mean a "one-loss" IC squad? Are you conceding Saterday already?

Jose, I actually forget the answer. It will probably come to me when I am nowhere near a computer. It's not Jess Welch though.

Bombers, don't know if you are kidding, but I got the media guide in the mail back in August. The first rule of the media guide is that you don't ask about the media guide.

Think they'll be posting it on the website like almost every other team in the country?

Oh, Max, is IC playing this Saterday? Pep thought they had a bye week before Cortaca.

whiniest----
hmm
i always thought that was cornered by the ic faithful after a cortaca loss.
or perhaps hartwick fans asking for respect.


hell- the only fans that i respect on a hole (beside fisher fans) are au fans.

Speaking of Respect....check out this article regarding Boltus and his NFL stock.  Pretty impressive.

wow, Impressive. The kid is rediculous. I'm just glad he is a senior so Fisher doesn't have to try and tackle him anymore. I have been following DIII football for a while, and he is the best at QB I have seen.

Believe it or not, at old Chugger Davis field, more fans were packed in for Cortaca.  Now the school limits capacity to I believe 6,500 not counting what portable bleechers are brought in.  It's simply the design of the stadium and security reasons that ticket sales are limited and SRO is not an option.

Cough, there's one game before Cortaca, COUGH!!

Calling it a "game" shows your complete disrespect to the tradition and excellence of the Ithaca football program, PG.  I'd be surprised if IC spent even one video session this week preparing for Alfred.  The Bombers can sleepwalk through this game and still win by 30.  It's all about beating an undefeated Cortland and sending them from a potential #1 seed to a #5 or 6 seed.  This saterday's game is like one of those wacky-eye pictures for Ithaca; you gotta look past it to see the real picture!
