But but but TV money. Never mind you can't build a fan base because fans can not come to all the games...so they just don't come to any.

Now move the game from Thursday to Tuesday night and add a much earlier sunset, much colder temperatures, and stronger potential for bad weather, and that's the attendance handicap created by MACtion. Also, tonight's contest between Pitt and Syracuse is a bit of a Haley's comet moment in terms of its rarity...it is a game of P4/5 teams that have both been defeated by the Zips! 🤘💪

this site has minnesota offensive line as #4 in all of D1. i knew there were good but didn't know they were ranked that high...

as of today gophers -23.5. i think zips can cover this. i'm hoping the game is close and competitive to build some confidence for the guys going into unlv. the o line of minnesota is massive and makes me nervous though. especially with our line already banged up. this is definitely a very good test and personal chance for guys to step up and show what they got

I'm not sure the Game 1 event experience improvements were incremental, honestly. It was a big shift.

This attendance was horrible for a school as steeped in history as Pitt. It gives me hope that we will overcome our attendance issues in the years to come because we continue to make incremental improvements to the program and the event experience.

Preview from GoZips.com: https://gozips.com/news/2026/9/17/mens-soccer-opens-big-east-play-at-home-against-butler The weather looks great so hopefully a decent crowd. Hoping for a slightly less stressful match than the last couple. 😆

I'm way late on a response, but did want to say it was nice to see you and your wife at the game! Appreciate the Asheville restaurant recommendation - Cúrate was excellent. Trip to Winston Salem was easy. Made it in under 7 hours. Tailgating at the fairgrounds was very reminiscent of the Rubber Bowl lot. Plenty of room. Unfortunately not many people used it. I'm sure for this week's Miami game it'll be a lot fuller. Once we left the lot and walked to the stadium, the paved lots along the way were full. They seems to be "hopping," but not a crazy tailgate environment by any stretch. We stopped by the UA Alumni tent, which was very nice. I think they bought food for 500 people, and maybe 60 showed up? It was nice to have the tent only a couple hundred feet from the entrance. Stadium was definitely on the level of InfoCision. The fans were good people. The Winston Salem band at halftime was a highlight! Awesome performance. Football in the south can be much more of a "formal" event. Enjoyed the college girls in their summer dresses and cowboy boots. Wish the game were more competitive. My wife was beat by the heat, so we left with about 7 minutes to go. Missed both TDs. Got to hear them via Skozen and Dunn on iHeart as we walked back to the car. Good time. Good people. Wish the game were more competitive, but it went as well as we could reasonably expect.

To be fair this was last week in the rain. But all things considered we did awfully well in comparison.

And look at the publicity Miami received for that schedule.

Still waiting on our Big East soccer bros to throw us some bones

"Amazes" me that no school wants to play Akron, a team that hasn't one an important game outside of the MAC in what? Never!

I want to give this a like, but that OOC schedule is a Miami (OH) level of bad.

I don't like this schedule.

Here you go.

No Malone this year? I'm definitely not renewing now. Edit: If those are actual then I believe Tulane and whichever Sun Belt school we end up matching with will be the only 2 other OOC home games. Dates I believe are already available for both. I'm just too lazy to dig for them.

Can I interest you in Muskingum (11/9), West Virginia Tech (11/20), and Frostburg State (12/13)? Not sure how many open slots are left for games. 3 are being occupied by non-DI which I (queue Grinch voice) LOATHE ENTIRELY.

Yes, I know I've been holding off buying tickets as I'm eager to wait to see which days we're hosting Bethune-Cookman, Arkansas Pine-Bluff, or Mississippi Valley State /s

It appears some people have taken the "Party With Marty" idea above as a confirmed, University sponsored event. To be clear - The idea was tabled exclusively by me with zero input from UA. That said, I wouldn't have added concept details and graphics if I didn't believe it could be a successful, fun, and feasible promo. I hope someone at UA takes it and runs with it in some form. Apologies to Marty if it caused him any angst. He's a rock star, and my hero! 🦘🎸

want us to blindly commit to season tickets

Did WMU have any in-stadium options that day to contest/overturn? Is there any prior precedent for overturning an outcome after the fact based on discovery of an officiating error? Honestly, given the replay decision and play result, could this have gone any other way? Of course I think the Broncos got screwed and were wronged. I’m just wondering whether there were any remedies and if so, what they were.

Western's big mistake was leaving the field. Once that happened they were stuck with the bad outcome.

In this day and age of the portal tomorrow is never guaranteed. Best player should play regardless of who it is.

So who has the authority if not the FBS oversight committee?

i would say use poff while you can and try to save CB for next year.
