Hardings hogs are on the field now going through their stretches as the kickers continue to warm-up and work on their techniques. We've had a good # of 40 yd FG go through the uprights - some that would have been good from 45 yds or more. Stil waiting on the bulk of the Tigers to come out and start their warm-ups. The Tigers jerseys are a bright red - nice contrast with the Bison's black pants, white jerseys with black letters and black trim and black helmets. White pants for the Tigers with red helmets and white numbers. The field looks in good shape - I definitely like the larger TIGER letters in the end zone - started with that last year and continued over to this season - looks good. Beautiful night out - slight breeze which should make it comfortable for those sitting outside this nicely air conditioned press box.
More of the UWA players coming out onto the field for warm-ups now and some waiting in the tent in the corner of the home end zone.
the band is marching along the fence outside the stadium, getting ready to come into the stands. I don't have any numbers, but the band looks to have more musicians than last year. I'll see if I can get some #'s .
Rest of the Tigers are coming onto the field now and massing in the end zone. The intensity of the warm-ups seems to be picking up now. Reminds me of my first ever GSC home game back in '83 when I was at UWG. I travelled to the Livingston University game and stoon on the visitor's sideline and was impressed at how large and how into the game the crowd was.
Looks like we have some large linemen - larger than last year. I know the O line was a point of emphasis during recruting and during camp. The D-2 blog seemed to think that HU's defense is better than the one that gave up almost 600 yard in offense to us last year - we'll see. I definitely think our offense will be better - great skill position guys and a QB with more experience in the system this year. If the OL holds up, we should be able to score points this year.
45' to go. Back at ya in a few minutes.
