Would be better to delay kick off to 7 PM. Rain would be over. May get a better crowd

Big game today, take care of business and look forward to 12:30 tomorrow, ESPNU. Go Dins!

London Lewis getting start at DT today

Congrats to Lewis ! Play the players who practice hard. Not meaning anyone in particular just let’s see who wants to hit hard and get out there ...

Point got 5 replies. On to playoffs I hope

Grainger started and they rotated him and HS quite a bit. JH played a lot of minutes in the second half

I’ve been to pretty much every home game since 2000, and this was the sorriest crowd I remember being at a game. Regardless of what happened last week I felt bad for the team having to make an effort in that weather in front of that audience. I hope we have a home playoff game if for no other reason than the seniors to have a final game in front of more fans.

If we get a home playoff game and we have a no show like today, then shame on us! FU wants a home game and they have apparently put in a strong bid.

Always hard to draw fans on that weekend.

We have a lot of "Fair" weather fans, and today's weather wasn't fair. At one time, the number on the visitor side was Point 64, FU 1

I’ll show up if we get one. I bet the non-student crowd would be moderate - weather caveat of course. 4K maybe To Get out of house” over Thanksgiving.

check out the crowd tonight at Duke/Wake.

Yesterday was the biggest recruiting day of the season. It’s too bad they visited on the worst weather day in a long time to see a game against a NAIA team. Rain in the forecast for next Saturday.

Well - we've played in more crappy weather games this season than I can remember.
I thought the DINS looked comfortable in the elements today.

I think the best things to come out of the point game was the effort - and - playing a lot of players, lots of players saw their first action of the season. Great to see Jack Barton, Bryce McCormick, and Jake Johanning get a lot of PT.

Coleman also had a great game, he was active, got his first sacks, I think in the future he will be a very good NG.

What else can you say about Blackshear and Chizik… both have a nose for the ball and make plays.
