Did anyone hear about today's attendance? I was disappointed in the number of empty seats, but we were loud and proud! Elon had a decent crowd.

On another note, I am SO proud of this team! I believe in our coaches and players. I was a little concerned when we drew Elon, but our coaches and players proved me wrong. Go get Incarnate Word! :!:

Today's 2,700 will obviously tank the season average

Any attendance today was fine. Numbers are not everything. I think a home game was important for the program. I mean, at 17 year intervals, some of us won’t be here for the next home playoff game at that rate. That is ridiculous.

GO PALADINS!

Students were on break which was why the tailgating area was weak

Makes today’s streaming difficulties doubly frustrating. Students at home, away from the FM dial, were unable to listen-in & get hooked on Dan & team calling the action.

Nothing weak about my our tailgate. Started with setup at 9:00, closed down at 5:00.

100% true, and probably helped us get the win playing at home which makes it worth it

But also 100% true it will tank our season average

Any chance the Paladins will host another Playoff Game this year?

If we win our game and Richmond beats Sac St then you have two non seeded teams. I guess they then bid on it like the first round games?

Unless FUBeAR is mistaken, the bids for all rounds (except 2nd Round & Championship games, of course) are submitted by all possibly included Teams (that wish to bid) at the same time as the 1st Round bids are submitted. Doubtful Richmond had to bid too aggressively to have ‘won out’ over Davidson, while Furman may have had to have been aggressive to ‘beat’ Elon’s bid.

So…

1) Beat the Word!
2) Go Spiders!
3) C’mon JD the AD!
4) Go Samford. Beat SELA
5) BUY TICKETS AND SHOW UP for a Home quarterfinal game!!!!!!
6) Beat Richmond!
7) Go Samford. Beat NDSU (prolly)
8) GET TO B’HAM & pack out their puny stadium in purple!
9) REMATCH! Beat Samford!!
10) GET TO FRISCO, TX
11) Beat South Dakota State (prolly)!
12) CELEBRATE!
