30' to kick off

Harding is leaving the field going back to the dressing area in Pruitt Hall. The Tigers are still warming-up. The crowd is growing and you can feel the excitement building. Sitting here wondering if our guys will be able to keep their excitement under control and avoid some of those 9 penalties we had in the first game. In a game with a better opponent - like tonight - those penalties might be drive killers. Concentration has to be better tonight.

The Tigers just left the field to go to their dressing room in Homer Field House. Won't be long now.

The little tent through which the Tigers will come onto the field is ready now, awaiting their arrival.

the band is seated in the lower right hand section of the home side of the field and they are taking up 5 or 6 whole rows - Glenn Smith does a heck of a job recruiting to get that many kids. Good work Glenn.

The field is empty now - won't be long before toe meets leather - actually it's more like leather meets leather - no barefoot kickers on either squad this year.

Dee Outlaw is announcing opening lineups now - how many years has he done that? He has seen a lot of great games and some exceptional players during his stay at Livingston U/UWA.

The flags are lying pretty limp right now - wind shouldn't be a factor, at least early in the game.

Back in a few

PS If you are in the neighborhood, stop off and catch some of the game. It's a beautiful night at Tiger Stadium. Could be a great night if things go well.
