I will be there.

AHH...Yea! I can rest easier now! Good looking out.

Why is this game in High Point?

[Aggie One]

Bowman Gray is booked for a rain date for those amatuer stock car races that evening.

I expect Union to win this game rather handily to tell you the truth. WSSU has way too many holes this early in the year to plug. It may be a different story by the middle of the season, but they are hurting on both sides of the ball in terms of personnel, depth and experience.

You just can't break in a new coach, lose 26 regulars to transfers, retain just four starters back in total and have three quarters of your team never having played a college football game and expect immediate positive results, Bill Hayes as AD or not.

But then again, all defenses are or should be way ahead of offenses this early in the season so openers can be very close and WSSU does have the superior kicking game but imo just not enough along defensive front and at LB or the offensive diversity needed to beat Union who does have experience.

Panthers by 10.

I heard that the auto racing group had the date/ BG Stadium, reserved for a potential make up/rain out date for a race. I'm not too sure. It's messy...with the shuttling of the students an all. 'SU needs to be able to play and socialize in town. Who knows , maybe the triad will turn out with the kids.

[Aggie One]

Expect no more than 3500-4000 max next week. Simeon holds 10,000.

[ohsixrain]

If it holds 10k that should be ample enough space for the amount that will be in attendance.

[90saggie]

So basically what your saying Aggie 1 is that WSSU is in the same position we were in in 06 wright?

[DOOMS]

Not really. Our coach and AD at the time had no idea how to build a program. Winston has that over us back then. Of course that only means they won't lose every game for the next two years. Probably won't help them that much against Union. That being typed I wouldn't be surprised if they won or lost.

[pj]

I'll be on the road, but I love that things are starting up.

[Bornthrilla]

I'm there.

Recent turn of events in the Valley have me worried about next week.

[jslee850]

Didnt we have this discussion last year?

[Aggie One]

More like '07 I would say and yes we sure did jslee. The wife and I will check them out tomorrow night.
