The theme of this game is Vice Nights. I guess for copyright reasons it could not be called Miami Vice Nights, although there were a lot of references to that, Crockett and Tubbs imagery, and other things that let you know it was Miami Vice.
Date: October 5, 2023 | “These teams have high expectations in the American Conference and this should be a great game.”
Date: October 3, 2023 | “We have been looking to get down to FIU for awhile and with my move down to Florida it presented the perfect opportunity.”
JSU should celebrate their first FBS game and a win. It is a huge milestone for a program making the jump up in class and a win over a team that is not a pushover. Both teams have significant work to do to compete at the top level of CUSA, but this was Week 0 and it is a long season.
Date: August 16, 2023 | “It is always exciting when a team makes the leap from FCS to FBS.” “And with Rich Rodriguez in his second year at the helm, it should be an exciting team to watch with lots of scoring. We are excited to see the Gamecocks first game at this level.”
Date: October 31, 2022 | “This will only be our second Sun Belt game, but if it is anything like our first, we are in for a great trip”
We continued our self guided tour on the Chapel Trail. A ⅓ mile walk (uphill both ways) to the Cadet Chapel which is normally the highlight of a trip to USAFA. But as the sign at the visitors center said, the cadet chapel is closed for a multi year restoration and the expected opening is 2027.
Date: October 10, 2022 | “I have been to the USAFA in my youth and it is absolutely gorgeous. I look forward to seeing a game in what is truly one of the more unique environments in college football”
HBS is a nice venue with excellent sight lines to downtown Minneapolis. We did a lap around the concourse checking out the variety of food options and the end zone beer garden that served the ever popular bucket of cheese curds.
Date: September 6, 2022 | We are excited to see Huntington Bank Stadium as it was high on our list ever since it was finished being built.
I think we managed to hit all of the highlights of the University of Illinois campus including the student union, the quad, the tornado shelter, the math building where we could not get to the top of the bell tower, the indoor practice facility that was locked, and even the preacher who told us we were all going to hell.
Date: August 10, 2022 | …Al goes on further to state that “We are also glad to make this trip in August and we hope to get a beautiful sunny day to enjoy all that the University and its surroundings have to offer”.
The basketball game cost twice as much as the football game. That should give you a sense of where we were, the priorities, and what really brings in the cash.
…that at no point on this trip was the trip ruined by Beth, much to her surprise and constant pondering that she was ruining a Quest trip. Beth, you are always welcome on Quest trips, or other trips for that matter.
At a school that is rich with tradition, this might be the king of traditions. Texas A&M does not have cheerleaders, they have Yell Leaders. The night before each game the yell leaders lead the band and crowd in various yells, The Aggie War Hymn, and other antics mocking the weekly opponent to hype the crowd for the game the following day.
