Cams went off line at 2PM

I'm hoping the cams stay on until the UA runs onto the field.

That's an awesome sight watching the place fill-up

That is odd.I would have thought they'd been out there by now.

Great link...thanks!Now all we need is Tailgate Cams!I was just thinking that.I would love to see the UofA first on campus gameday experience.I hope our locals going to the game takes lots and lots of pictures.

Toledo is 0-1, and was 3-9 last season. They're up against high school football on a Friday night. That's tough for a MAC program to overcome.You're missing the most important point. 9:00 start. When I go to a college football game, the only thing I want to start at 9:00 is the digestion of my halftime hot dog. I wouldn't blame some people for not going.Also, Colorado is a terrible team. They lost to Colorado State last week at home and the entire country go to see it. People aren't stupid. They will not pay to go watch crap at 9:00. The Big 12 Conference is another conference that is too big. They need to kick two or three weaklings out of the confernce and go to round robin play and eliminate their conference championship game. They should give Colorado and Iowa State the boot.20,082 official attendance. The glass bowl has official capacitu listed at 26,000 plus.A few factors I belived led to less than full Glass Bowl.Toledo was 0-1 coming into the game and coming off a ugly 3-9 seasonThe game was played on Friday at 9PM. Ohio HS football is still big despite the state's current economic woes and urban flight that has somewhat destroyed the once proud inner city programs. IMO, had this game been played Thursday or Saturday night. There would have been a lot more fans.

I think they did a great job given this project just started in late Jan 2008. If, they'd had a two full years like the construction company had to build Minnesota new stadium. I'm sure the 2% would be done as well as further along on floors 2 through 4 in the press tower that won't be completed until next year.I'm looking forward to all the people who claimed the project was not behind schedule and would be 100% done by this Saturday afternoon telling me how wrong I was. You're wrong.The stadium is done I'm sure you'll argue and say it's not. Knock yourself out. But, it is and they were never 45 days behind schedule.

How about a BJ report?http://www.ohio.com/news/58861552.html :blink:Why would you doubt the reports of our good people here.

If it was, then they did it this afternoon after I left because I was parked right next to it in the morning. They did tame the jungle that the lawn had grown into earlier this week. It was still there this afternoon at 1. It was gone as of 5:30 when I drove by, all that remained was a glorious pile of wood.That great news.I hope they throw Morrison Sr under the jail when his appeals run out. We never would have gone through this if not for Him and his greedy son.

Wouldn't it be ironic if someone shanks a field goal and the ball crashes right through the roof of one of those things.Ha! More likely, it would bounce off the roof, all the way to the Rubber Bowl!You got that right.I asked my brother who works in construction as site foreman in the Akron area. He told me the guys in trades who do that kind of work. All have said the repeated roof work makes no sense unless UofA construction manager keep asking for specs changes. They still should have been up there and done months ago after the framing was done.Why they're up there again yesterday and today is crazy.

This is the first time I've seen the lights on. I take it all back about the lights complaints. It looks great.

They also did a good job not allowing Firestone vs. East and Buchtel vs. Firestone.They obviously don't want any trouble at the games.Firestone lost to Twinsburg 51-6 last nightDon't expect many fans at the Firestone games new stadium or not.

I hope they move the Out House by the end zone facility before the open house tomorrow.

They only added the St. V/Hoban game after the Morgan State date was announced. They were previously slated to play at Green Field.Actually, the original site of the game this year was Hoban's Dowd Field, until the Info date became available.That's correct.UofA wanted to be the 1st game at the Info and Hoban-St V was going to be at Hoban this year. When UofA added the Morgan St game. They called Hoban-St VM and told them the Info was available for their game. They usually draw 15,000 to 20,000 for this game.
