Game isn't on ESPN3 today?

Let's go baby!

Game isn't on ESPN3 today?
I just spent some time looking for it there....
If anyone finds a stream, please post
-
Damn I'm pissed it isn't on ESPN 3 I made plans around it today. GRRRRR
-
Go to YSUs site and choose video. It's the UNI feed, cost $10.
-
There ya go Guins.....kick them in the mouth. Very Nice!!!
-
Offensive Line getting great push. Marched right down the field
-
Defense looking pretty good right now. That's a great sign.

Yep. Good designed blitz

Pick video.
-
That color-man reminds me of "coach" with his hang time comments. All he said for List was "wow ...look at that".
-
Do not like this play calling at all
-
Yeah, he loves the hang time!!!
-
What's wrong with Liste? Doesn't look right
-
we are in HUGE trouble. Far too much speed for us by UNI defense. The panther d coordinator is smart. He saw film and is shifting the front line really confusing us again.
-
Me neither.....draws on 3rd and long. Come on Shane, open it up a bit.
-
Here we go with the time out crap again. We could be in some trouble today

Lol
-
here we go ...making a rookie QB look like Johnny U.
-
I believe QB is a transfer from Nebraska.... Not sure rookie is right description..........?
-
Man, Webb can make some plays! Love it
-
What a throw by Hess.
-
Looks like we need to pass in order to set up the run today.
-
What a throw by Hess.
Big time throw!
-
wow. He was wide opened for a huge gain and the QB throw it over the head INT!!!!
-
This kid can't throw and they can't stop our offense. Could be a very long night
-
I'm wondering if Ruiz is hurt. His last run looked like he pulled up and now Webb is in the game. Oh yeah, another FREAKIN time out. Come on Coach, get it together.
-
C'mon boys. Sloppy!
-
Needed to score after that int.
-
Love these turnovers!
-
Yes, we did. I still don't think Ruiz is running as hard as normal. Maybe their defense is just getting to him quicker.
-
Mistakes by UNI is the only reason we are in the lead here ...should be 28-14 UNI right now. The Panthers can blitz at-will against us and we are powerless to do a darn thing about it.
-
Pretty impressed with the defense this half. Need to come out and get points 1st possession of 2nd half
-

Go root for UNI then. Jeez. Debbie downer over here... It's 14-3. You mean when UNI blitzed on that TD throw to Stubbs??? I love what the defense is doing. Playing zone while bringing some blitzes and pressure this kid. Make him throw and try to beat you. Because he can't.
-
This may be the most amateurish college football broadcast I've ever seen. No instant replays. Game clock frozen at 1:15 (still says that at halftime). Never show play clock. When UNI fans watch NFL games, they probably think they're watching a broadcast from the future.
-
Hahahahahaha.....i hear that. Very lame for $10
-
We need to score a td the opening drive . This game ia still anyone's so far. Go guins!
-
last years broadcast of NDSU game was pretty bad as well. The quarterback and backfield was not in the picture the whole game.
-
I think this broadcast is way better than ours. Talk about amateurish..... That's us lol
-
yes I notice the same thing. Maybe what ...2 cameras? But they have the better team right now ...we need to suck it up!
-
1AA, you in a bad mood?? UNI is playing like a 4-5 team, 2 turnovers, bad passes...come on man. Yes the stats are in their favor, but really?? We're winning dude, enjoy it for now!!
-
We pissed away a scoring opportunity off a TO and used time out while pissing it away. Why wasn't the O ready when the D picked it off? Wtf.
Our use of time outs is head scratching. Let's hope we don't waste them in the second half.
-
1AA, you in a bad mood?? UNI is playing like a 4-5 team, 2 turnovers, bad passes...come on man. Yes the stats are in their favor, but really?? We're winning dude, enjoy it for now!!
Amen. Cheer up man
-
I think this broadcast is way better than ours. Talk about amateurish..... That's us lol
My husband makes fun of it when its on. He sounds exactly like the play by play guy. I definitely think our broadcast is pretty amateur BUT I am thankful that it's even being broadcasted so it gives me the chance to watch out here in San Diego.
-
WHAT WAS THAT CRAP????? Horrible, horrible, horrible.
-
WTF???????
-
Bad start to the half. We look flat
-
second time UNI had a million+ yards on the return, but fouled.
-
Horrible start to the half. Need turnover
-
They need to let this clown throw the ball.....he's terrible.
-
Bend but don't break. That's the motto for the defense all year. Make this kid throw. HE CANT
-
That was the most pathetic opening series after halftime that I've seen in a long long time
-
ohh finally going to call a hold?!
-
Just horrible. Wtf is Shane calling up there???? Taking too much time. Hate the play calling
-
This team lacks the discipline it takes to be GOOD
-
Seems like every play, #26 is out of position.... Get it together!!
-
Playing to not lose instead of playing to win. Very poor tackling. These refs are calling everything on us.
-
Self destructing big time right now
-
This may be the worst I've seen them play this year. Terrible, terrible, terrible.
-
Im not sure anyone on the sidelines is capable of "righting the ship"
-
WOW. BIG STOP
-
This QB cant pass but he has more yards then our QB?
-
HUGE stop at the goal line. Then another penalty.....UGH
-
Is their defense that good? Or is this just very poor play calling?
-
Let's have a nice long drive here
-
YSU needs to march this down the field and deflate the momentum
-
Is their defense that good? Or is this just very poor play calling?
Little of both. Only Farley the LB is their missing piece on defense injury wise
-
Home cooking here. Uni has 1 penalty ans we have 9. Wow
-
No running game .
-
Wow....
-
The worst half of all time. Block punt are you kidding me
-
Special teams are horrible today.....reminds me of that last 3 years.
-
PLAYING SO CONSERVATIVE
-
Shane Montgomery coming back to bite us again
-
YSU is scared......................... What else can you say? Complete disregard for fundamentals
-
Why are we not throwing the ball to set up the run?
-
Hang on to your seats folks......this one is going to be interesting.
-
What 0-3 over the next 3 weeks? We are not going to get another two first-downs in this game. If we do not do it on special teams we are done.
-
Because the retreads on the sidelines are sh**ting their pants................
-
He was down!!!!
-
These announcers are horrrible. They have the excitement of a worm
-
He was down!!!!
No he wasn't.
-
This is unbelievable......
-
The coaching staff and this team were definitely looking forward to next week. UGH, this is killing me
-
Look poorly coached
-
We missed a field goal, had a punt blocked, we threew an INT, we fumbled, we have had several drive killing penalties. WtF?
-
The coaching staff and this team were definitely looking forward to next week. UGH, this is killing me
Was just gonna say that. They are looking forward to next week. Knew it was gonna haunt us
-
Thats the easy way out.. Its called CHOKE
-
This is why it's soooooo hard to give in to this team. Just when you think everything is rolling along, this is how they play. SAD!!!
-
Just no words right now..... And this isn't USD's defense
-
They are doing the adjustments in the 2nd half and we are not. The O needs to wake up..... Dont worry about next wk and put a drive on and win this game....
-
They build you up to disappoint... BUT, we can brag about our facilities............... We WIN the best facilities award
-
Until these coach's (Wolford, and Monty) are gone you'll continue to see the YSU Penguins look like deer in the head lights against great coaches. Wait till next week we'll be out manned and out coached!! YSU will prevail today mark my words.. 8)
-
Hess is limping. Banged up. Ruiz is banged up. Looks scared
-
Why are we running Webb up the middle!!!!???
-
Does the DEFENSE have enough left?
-
Must go for two!!
-
Hess is definitely injured. WAY TO TOUGH IT OUT
-
I cannot believe we did not take a time out with such a crucial play?! All the stupid timeouts we take & then this?
-
C'mon defense..... PLEASE
-
C'mon defense..... PLEASE
oops
-
I cannot believe we did not take a time out with such a crucial play?! All the stupid timeouts we take & then this?
Might be the first time I've ever agreed with you Dano ;)
-
WHY ARE WE PLAYING SO SOFT, ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME ERIC!@!!!!!!
-
F**K TRESEY!!!!! WHY
-
F**K TRESEY!!!!! WHY
Because he's friggen clueless! Not the kids fault this coaching staff as a whole sucks assss
-
2nd and 17 and the QB that cant pass gets 15 yards and position 4 a winning FIELD GOAL
-
ATROCIOUS. I can't wait to hear Wolford blame this on the kid's....LIKE HE ALWAYS DOES. THIS MAKES ME SICK TO MY STOMACH.
-
Do you want me to pull out the Fire Tresey thread?
-
Do you want me to pull out the Fire Tresey thread?
You're joking right... Pull out the fire the whole damn staff! What did the O side of the ball do.. Just put the DEFENSE behind the 8 ball all game..
-
8-4.............
-
Goodbye
-
We couldn't consistently run the ball on 1st and 2nd down? No sh** Coach, how about you throw the ball MORE....you A$$
-
This game is on Montgomery and Tresey. Nobody else
-
#8 and #26 have to make those plays.... HAVE to.
-
22k to 14k if LUCKY next weekend................ This is on the coach that pretended that he didnt know YSUs record at the UNI Dome... He knew, he knew...........
-
Wow. That was a bit baffling.
-
HAHAHAHAHAHA.....so much for ESPN next week. 8-4, here we come. I hope not, but what a bad time to be playing #1 after a loss like this.
-
As soon as the team and coaching staff came out in the second half, they went into STUPID mode. Maybe they were too focused on NDSU, certainly not UNI......
-
Have to win 1 more game against two teams we cannot beat. Bad loss.
-
The Wolf must go. I have had enough. The first respectable opponent at our level, with 1/2 their team out & we blow it. This team is 0-3 over the next 3 weeks & I do not even want to see a play-off game, as then we play a team that is good AND healthy. Do you think we even have a chance against the xDSU's? It looks like next year is not optional on Wolford's contract, we have to fire him.
Yes you are right about W's post-game comments ...he will drop back into his redneck drawl ...and blame execution; instead of his inability to field a quality MVFC-style football team. Wolf's pregame next week had better be ...guys my job is on the line ...so win it for me.
-
Special teams cost us the game. They put the defense in too may bad situations.
-
Did i read #8 missed and INT at the end of game?
-
Well! So much for a big crowd at the ice castle next week. Better win one of the last two remaining games or on the road for the play-offs. Even worse yet left out with the screwed up committee and leaving our fate in their hands.
-
Play calling?? Terrible!! DeLisio needed to catch that ball!!
-
Did i read #8 missed and INT at the end of game?
Yep, hit him right on the 8
-
We had a chance a two interceptions to end the friggin game.
-
Did i read #8 missed and INT at the end of game?
Did I read #29 fumbled a kick return.. Did I read # 12 threw an interception... The D caused two big turn overs today The O pissed them away!! Not their fault (D) or #8.. :o
-
Hey Coach, you know what? You're right, UNI is not our rival.....cause they own your a$$ too!!!!
-
Lose both we are out of playoffs. They will not take a team losing the last three.
-
This was the worst play calling I have seen in a YSU game in 2 years
-
The saddest part of this game......the defense actually played pretty well until that last drive. Tresey should be fired!!!! Seriously, every time we pressured that QB, he threw the ball short...EVERY TIME. And at the end of the game, WE PLAY SOFT?
-

# 8 needs to make that play
-

Got to fire Wolford 1st then the super brain O coordinator 2nd.
-

Agreed, it didn't cost us the game. But we needed a big play and he didn't get it done!!!
-

# 8 needs to make that play
# 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 10, 11, 12 etc... all needed to make plays. :o
-
Wolf just needs a better D Coordinator. No excuse to play soft coverage when your only up 1 and they have a great FG Kicker!!! Just don't understand.... We will still have a good crowd next week. We are still 8-2.
-
Whats up with ALL the delay of games?
-
#8 had a Pick 6... Ball game
-
Whats was up with ALL the delay of games?
That's usual, will normally cost us 3 or 4 timeouts every week.
-
Prevent is common in the SEC........... Remember the MVFC is just like the SEC..........
-

Wolf needs a new job.. Out coached in a huge game against a beaten and broken UNI team. The Defense was the only thing YSU can hang it's hat on this week.. :-X

-
Does he call the plays? No that would be Mr. Montgomery who got canned from Miami (OH). Somehow he always gets a pass because his offense sets records. But when it matters..... Conservative and choke.
-
RETREADS................. and then the local media and the clown AD brag about the exoerience on the staff.. The problem is the experience is LOSING....................

This is where I disagree with EVERYONE. You're the DAMN HEAD COACH, tell your COORDINATORS what you want. Yes, both of them sucked today....but ultimately this is a Head Coach issue, that's why he's paid the big $$$$. This loss is solely on Wolford.....PERIOD...END OF STORY!!!

I agree with you but Wolf relies on those guys.... To a fault it seems

0505, I can appreciate, understand and respect your view....I really do. But this isn't the first time this has happened in the last 4 years. This being outcoached in games like this happens WAY TO often. At some point, if Eric Wolford wants to be a big time Head Coach, he has to step up and kick his Coordinators in the a$$ when needed. If they don't like it, remove them and let's see who's next.

Winning a game you have to is not in this coaching staffs skill set.................

+1000000
-
You know when you think about the 1st series of the 2nd half you have to wonder what the hell went on in the lockerroom? You have a 4 year starter at QB and 1 half of football completed............ Cant you script 3 plays that will catch them off guard?
-
These Penquin teams under Wolf and company are the very definition of "Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde". They change from good to bad quickly, consistently and without warning. All programs have gone thru a year where they had a team like that. One that frustrated fans and left coaches scratching their heads. But this program and their teams have been like this EVERY YEAR.
So one can only assume there is a deep, inherent, underlying issue that is WRONG.
Anyone got a clue as to what/who that is?

I hear ya. Something has to change
-
The team clearly lacks composure and confidence....... There is NO calming influence and thats just the beginning of the characteristics that this TEAM lacks..........
-
The blame is ultimately on the HC. He recruited most of the players and all of the coaches. UNI was better coached and better disciplined. YSU had 9 penalties to UNIs 1.
I think Hess is a very good QB, but IMO he is not among the rank of Jaworski, Stoudt, or Brungard. Yes he has broke Zett's career completion record, primarily due to, of course skill, but also staying healthy and starting every game. Cal Ripken was a slightly above average baseball player who had longevity, much like Hess does in FB. Tonight he was outperformed by the backup QB of a 5-5 team. This loss is not his fault, but like the team as a whole, they are above average, but not Championship caliber. I hope to be proven wrong.
-
How'd ya like to be the guy who has to sit next to Wolford on the bus/plane flight back home??
Whoever is required to do that isn't paid enough..
-
This coaching staff has never had this type of ADVERSITY and PRESSURE...... Its do or die......... 2 games to go. Can you rally the team to bigger things.........? I guess we shall see.....
-
What does everyone think about if YSU loses these last 2. Do they deserve to be in?? I don't think so.
-
I think the committee loaths for every opportunity they get to leave YSU out ..... I cant imagine this year will be any different.
-
Very interested to see what Scalzo writes after this game.
-
What does everyone think about if YSU loses these last 2. Do they deserve to be in?? I don't think so.
If they lose the last 2 games...........It's really two questions. 1) Do they "deserve" or have they "earned the right" to be in?.........probably not based on how voters think. And 2) Is YSU one of the best 24 teams in the FCS?.......probably yes. Probably one of the best 16 the last 3 years.., but because of their "Jekyll and Hyde" nature. they give voters every reason to leave them out.
-
No what stinks is that we will get in and we are not any good. Simply put, this team needs to go 2-0 over the next two weeks for anyone to have any respect for them. I knew when we hired this chump we would be spending at least another 5 or 6 years to have a decent team. I thought he was going to have a short leash?
I am tired of having no power game on offense. I am tired of no depth on either line. I am tired of little running backs being launched out of a slingshot. I am tired of our corners being beat. I am tired of seeing our corners cross the line of scrimmage. Up until this year I was tired of no tackling ...we have certainly improved.
heck I am so proud of our nickle package today. I mean UNI was in the red zone in 2 or 3 plays ever time; then they would show why they lost 5-in-a-row. Our red zone package was never off the field in the second half. They were tough, so why did Tracy not show that intensity before they got in the red zone? Simply unacceptable and I am tired of it.
-
I was going to vent against the team and coaching, but how can you blame them for not being focused? To be honest most of the fans on this board read and posted to lakesbison's thread of NDSU that was started on oct. 28th. 12 days before we played NIU! Now someone tell me I'm full of it! There is the real possibility of the penguins losing the next two and missing the playoffs. Don't think so? Wouldn't be the first time for a melt down. Is it true that Tressel will be here for the game next week? Please tell him to stay in Akron. Let's not embarrass ourselves and him too. If THIS penguin team shows up, NDSU can name the score.......

Kilr, are you kidding me?? Please tell me that was your version of comedy?? Getting his team focused may be the MOST IMPORTANT thing a Head Coach has to do on a weekly basis. And if he can't do THAT, it's time to go!!!
-
I encourage all of you to yell, swear, drink, and whatever else it takes to vent. It's a frustrating loss no doubt, but it's one loss. This isn't the BCS where our season is done because we lost a road game on the final play. We're 8-2, and we have the #1 team in the country coming to our house next week. Those opportunities don't come around too often. Let's do our best as fans to cheer on our team.

Very good point Youngstown. I'll be there next week cheering for the Penguins, just like I do for the Browns!!!!
-
At the end of the day we had multiple opportunities to stop them on the last drive. One play they went for it on 4th and 1 and their QB was in a shotgun and the lb's backed off the line and they converted. The other opportunity was the pick that was thrown to # 8 and he didn't make the play. The next opportunity was the big play Peterman made when he threw their QB down at the 43 knocking them out of fg range setting up the final opportunity not to allow the 1st down and we went into a soft zone and they completed the pass. As bad as we played the rest of the game, we had the opportunity to win on that last drive and we didn't make a single play to stop them. What does that say?

Prolly means we are a good 8-2 team that is not elite. Still a top 15 team in my mind.
-
Since the Wolf has been around, I observe that he always manages to lose one he shouldn't, every year. This one was that game this year. Outcoached and not well prepared.
You got to take your hat off to Farley. The dude can coach every year. And we had better personnel again. And they were hurt playing subs. Freaking amazing !
-
Where can we talk about next weeks game? We are bringing a fun crew and want to party in youngstown. .. win or lose we all.still booze. Screw UNI
-
i can only laugh at the morons that think Wolf needs fired, the program is in the best shape its been in over a decade, yet they dont pay the money to get some decent defensive coaches, says alot when your offense is tops in the nation but your D is one of the worst in a bad confrence (only 2 winning teams)

Hahahahahahahaha.....another jokester in the house tonight. Are you kidding me?? The morons (me included) know the one and only fact about the defensive coaches that apparently you're not paying much attention to. WOLFORD WAS THE ONE WHO HIRED THEM!!!!!! This has nothing to do with $$$$ dude. And if it does, how about Wolford find a young guy trying to make a name for himself and make that person an offer. Cause the older guys, well, they stink!!!!
Let me repeat myself one more time. Wolford is the HEAD COACH, he has every right and responsibility to tell his coaches what to do. If he doesn't have the balls to talk into his headphones and clearly say "They're stopping our run game and the pass game is open, time to start slinging it around." or "Hey, every time we've pressured this QB, he's thrown way too short or too long, how bout we put some pressure on this guy. Have you see the time left in the game???" Then he shouldn't be a Head Coach. AF, this is his gig and his alone, he needs to step up and be a Head Coach. Tough decisions need to be made at various times throughout a game, be a man and make a decision. If you hurt someone's feelings, that's OK.....you're professionals, remember?
-
We lost the game. Plain and simple. Gotta regroup for next week.
-
Strollos history indicates he usually gets a better coach on the 3rd or 4th hire.... Our problem is its 12 years inbetween winning seasons and playoffs........
-
The offensive play calling was, well, offensive. Shane Montgomery took the week off. He made little adjustments and added no wrinkles. He barely called any plays to throw to the TE's, we didn't try a back breaker play like a half back pass or flea flicker when we had them on their heels. He regurgitated last week's game plan which sucked last week and caused us to play a tight game because he was so hell bent on that dive play. We should have stepped on this team's throat in the third qtr. There was no creativity. No reverses, no shovel passes, nothing. He is stupid for running our QB in the last 2 games. Now Hess has a hurt ankle. Hello genius, we need him for the next few games and hopefully playoffs and you have not prepared your backup with any real game experience eventhough you have had opportunities when we played mismatched opponents. Are you really willing to take that risk? Is there not other plays that you could run that put Kurt at less risk? Pull your head out of your a$$, that team was ready for your game plan and you played right into their hands. UNI was not that good. Do your freaking job.

At the end of the day, complain about this or complain about that, but we lost because of a blocked punt and a fumble on a kickoff return.
I said it earlier today. If you don't turn it over, you win. We turned it over two times when it mattered late and we lost as a result.
Need to regroup like we did two years ago after losing to UNI in the last minute and beat #1 NDSU!!!
-
Aw, come on, guys! Stuff happens.
:D

I wonder why everybody is forgetting the MISSED field Goal. ::) Could have been a 2 point YSU win.. Just saying. Just hope NDSU plays like YSU did with their heads up their assses :o
-
At the end of the day. This loss could help us. Maybe it wakes the team up. We have been just getting by lately so hopefully this wakes everybody up

I hope you're right..

Need a repeat of two years ago. Lose in last minute at UNI. Beat #1 NDSU in the next week.

or you know, our D could stop a team using their backup QB and 3rd/4th string RB. They had to convert a LB t RB for this game for crying out loud

When is YSU going to forget all this FCS crap and move up and play in the big rodeo(stealing a word out of coach Wolf's vocabulary). Wolf should dress up like a cowboy for next weeks game and tell the team and coahces they need to cowboy up.
-
Post game press conference, Wolf said "this loss is on me". Thank you for maning up coach. Let's move forward!
-
Go Guins! I will be there to root on the Guins!!
Hit em in the mouth....

Glad he admitted it. On the other hand I don't think he'll learn from it. It will be one more week of Ruiz up the middle time and time again with the same result.

I was going to vent against the team and coaching, but how can you blame them for not being focused? To be honest most of the fans on this board read and posted to lakesbison's thread of NDSU that was started on oct. 28th. 12 days before we played NIU! Now someone tell me I'm full of it! There is the real possibility of the penguins losing the next two and missing the playoffs. Don't think so? Wouldn't be the first time for a melt down. Is it true that Tressel will be here for the game next week? Please tell him to stay in Akron. Let's not embarrass ourselves and him too. If THIS penguin team shows up, NDSU can name the score.......
Kilr, are you kidding me?? Please tell me that was your version of comedy?? Getting his team focused may be the MOST IMPORTANT thing a Head Coach has to do on a weekly basis. And if he can't do THAT, it's time to go!!!
Believe me, no comedy intended here. Are you suggesting it's time for the coach to go? It shouldn't take much for the 'guins to get up for this game, If they lose it won't be because of the coach keeping them focused. An Alabama in an SDSU uniform won't have much trouble with the team that showed up in cedar falls.......But,.....There's always a chance.

UNI missed one as well. We could have made those two INTs. We should not have fumbled twice. Hess could not have thrown a pick. It is no single play. It is great execution of a lousy game plan, compounded by lousy in-game coaching. This is the second week in a row. Last week was just a worse opponent so we lucked out.

No playmakers on the team...when it comes to the big play we have nobody that will step up!! Great teams have great playmakers...players that say "not today my friend!!" Players that make great plays to stop a team or unreal offensive plays to make the other team question what they are doing because no matter what they do they can't stop the "playmaker!!" We had many opportunities for players to step up and make a play and it did not happen!!! Coaching allows your playmakers to make the plays...we did not give our playmakers a chance...how many times can you run Ruiz and Webb up the middle like a battering ram??? Put a fullback back there with them and let them lead or kick out the ends that were killing us by making backside tackles...or get them on the edge and let them break it...how about the tight ends down the middle of the field??? They are two of our best playmakers and athletes on the field...non existent during the game???? VERY FRUSTRATING!!! WE need to step it up this week...
GO GUINS

either fire Strollo and get a new AD and either put the money into the program needed to move up to the FBS or else scrap the football program and put the money into basketball. Id rather be a part of march madness than the fcs playoffs.
gooooo guins

You must be a transplant. Football IS the ONLY sport that matters.

If football matters so much why doesnt anyone go to the games? They were lucky if they had 1,000 people there for homecoming. Pretty pathetic. Either the program is lame or the people of the mahoning valley are lame. Which is it?

I agree. They ran the ball up the middle with no FB two weeks in a row, over and over and over.

Time to start ripping on the mahoning valley. The program is nearly back to where it once was. The athletes that YSU has are better than more than half of the MAC. We have had this debate before. The people in Y-town want everything for free. The people in Y-town don't even understand FCS football and they don't know the level of football. I will go out on a limb and also ask how many college graduates are in the valley? Not people that attended college but actual graduates? Also of those that did not attend, they follow high school because they claim that as their school or their kids are there now. High school football SUCKS. I have no desire to watch Johnny Smith play outside linebacker when has no chance of playing in college. The only high school football that would interest me is state championships. I went to a Mooney ursuline game 3years ago and saw 17,000 fans there. I was like wtf? You have a Division 1 football program with some of the best facilities in college football let alone the fcs and you would rather watch Mooney run the f'ing ball up the middle every play? The game I went to Mooney passed the ball only once. The people are ignorant.
-
My theory on the popularity of HS ball is that people in the Valley really did not attend college "back in the day". Therefor they look back to the highlight of their lives ...I call it ABS "Al Bundy Syndrome". Let's be honest ...Bundy is as big of a "Youngstowner" as it gets ...living for his glory days.

Well if that play calling brings in the fans - We should have a sell-out the next two games.
