Official Saturday Week 0000 thread

If it wasn’t for FAMU getting greedy at the end of the first half, This 35-24 score would be 28-24 going into the fourth… If they can get a stop here this could get interesting

Yikes 63-10 over Hawaii. Has Vandy ever scored that many before?

Hawaii is a train wreck of a program. Are they even allowed to play in the Aloha Bowl stadium? It was crumbling like the old stadium in Birmingham last I heard.

does it seem odd that we are in the Chick-fil-A Kickoff Game and are the last FBS team to begin our season?

Just be glad we are even in the chick fil a mix. The Atlanta Sports Council would like nothing more than to cancel our contract. Thanks Geoff Collins !

Same reason they have the Chick-fil-A kickoff game. Everyone wants to play a game in Atlanta.

Gr8 point.

BTW . . . where is Chick-fil-A headquartered? And where is that Peach Bowl they've also sponsored for the past 25 years?

For fun, the next time you start to think that College Football isn't a regional sport, count the number of Dr. Pepper and Chick-fil-A commercials you see during the games.

I lived in Oahu in 92/93 - my admin’s husband was the secondary coach for the Rainbow Warriors. Paul Johnson was their OC. I had ringside tix to every home game (they served beer in Aloha Stadium back then). The Hawaii v BYU game that year is the best non-GT game I have ever seen. LaVell Edwards was BYU’s coach - one of the best in the business.
Hawaii curb-stomped Illinois in a bowl game that year.

Not anymore. The state condemned it at the beginning of last summer forcing Hawaii to modify their practice field into a temporary stadium until the state builds a replacement stadium.

That's a practice field, son.

The $30 million project follows a $8.1 million dollar project in 2021, which expanded capacity from 2,500 seats to 9,500 seats, and was completed in time for the start of the 2021 season.

If you’re young and you live in Hawaii there are a lot of things you want to do and experience other than watching a crappy football team. If you’re old in Hawaii you have the same reason not to attend football games that old people here have. This kind of diminishes the chances of large crowds at their stadium.
