Countdown to Penn State

[Zipsrifle]

While sufing around I dug up this site. It appears to count down till the Penn State game, though it is about 2-1/2 hours different than gozips.com. Could this be part of the next "Fear The Roo" marketing push by UA? Feartheroo.net seems like it would cost some money for the domain name?http://www.feartheroo.net/

Looks exciting. That "24" sound loop is really annoying. I can't wait to see what is going to be done, if it is a university sponsored thing, or if it is more like Zipsnation. According to the my secret source code viewer , it was last modified on Saturday, January 28, 2006 6:32:09 PM and it expires on Friday, August 04, 2006 2:37:07 PM. It was authored by "Advanced Systems International", but I have no idea who they are. If anyone knows, please tell me.

Here's a bit of the source code I found:

//////////CONFIGURE THE COUNTDOWN SCRIPT HERE//////////////////// year, month, day, hour(0=midnight,23=11pm), minutes, seconds:setcountdown(2006,09,02,13,00,00) var occasion="IT BEGINS"var message_on_occasion="Joe Pa Fears The Roo!"var countdownwidth='500px'var countdownheight='500px'var countdownbgcolor=''var opentags='<center><font face=LCD color=white size=+2>'var closetags='</font></center>'

I can't seem to figure out where/when "Joe Pa Fears The Roo" goes on the page.

Those are only some of the configuration variables.The message_on_occasion variable could be used however the java is programmed to.
