IAA Fan:
I say they win this one fairly easily, but I wish people would stop talking win this and we are in ...
Here is your poem:
Over the next 2-weeks, by I-AA
2-0 is what we can do at most ...do it and we host.
1-1 might send us to a game ...if not, no right to complain.
Lose 2 and we are through. But if you ask me,
Lose even one ...and we are done.
As UNI is not going to die.

Men, you embark upon the last portion of a journey that you started 12 months ago. Part of the journey involved some of your friends leaving us for various reasons to go their separate ways. But those of you who remain are a part of something special here at Youngstown State University. You stayed for a reason. You stayed on because you care about the school, what it stands for, your teammates, and yourselves!
All of you recognize that you are a part of something special here. You recognize that you've come a long way from last year. Savor it, absorb this moment and seize it! Embrace it and take it the direction that YOU want to go.
There comes a point in each person’s life when he/she asks himself: How do I want to be remembered?
The moment is at hand. It is not about tomorrow. It is not about yesterday. It is not about what you did ten minutes ago. But part of your future and how you'll be remembered will be shaped by over the next three and half hours on a Saturday. Look around the locker room and look at the person next to you. How do you want that guy to remember you? How do you want him to remember the way you played in this game? How do you want your parents, family, and friends to remember your performance? Will you be remembered as ordinary or extraordinary?
Thirty years from now when you have your team reunion you'll see many of these faces again and you'll shake hands. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to grasp the hand of that teammate 30 years from now and you look down at each other's hand and you see a giant ring on the finger? You'll reminisce and you'll soak up the common bond that you have with your teammates that can never be broken.
1. Play with heart. No matter what happens, we don't let up!
2. Play with passion. As the game goes on each play adds up to a winning performance.
3. Play within yourselves. Remember what you've been taught and play within that. So often teams lose games because guys start playing outside what they've been asked to do. Trust your mates and know they have your back.
4. Have fun! Relish this moment. Enjoy this, men! Don't be afraid to win!
5. Play with the champion's heart, mind, spirit, & attitude.
6. Don’t let anyone take this moment away from you.
GO OUT THERE AND BE CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!! BE CHAMPIONS AT YOUNGSTOWN STATE UNIVERSITY!!!!!!!!
