Congrats, Coach Elliott. I hope you are on the phone very shortly ordering some flags and banners for our first trip.

Can't wait to leave the cold east coast for balmy Texas tomorrow.

50s is not too bad. 30s is brutal down there when you have to stand up on the cold concrete the whole game. I was seriously thinking about bringing in a couple of those foam garden work kneepads just to stand on this year. That warm, probably wont need them. The real question is how many JMU fans will be packing in streamers to throw after TDs? Apparently, the NCAA and/or Frisco cleanup crew have said "Not this year, folks".

This post from the Bisonville Fan board:

Just a heads up to anybody flying through Denver. The Smash Burger Bar in the C gate terminal does NOT have their liquor license. Nice and clean and good food but you can’t get a beer there yet.

Unfortunately, does not apply as I have a direct flight from Dulles.

This does not really surprise me that NDSU fans are tracking that level of travel info. They have a Bison migration app to show where everyone is on their great trip south.

Also, I wrote some stuff about the game, if anyone is interested: http://thefcswedge.com/mvfc/fcs-champio ... rspective/

What's your estimate of Bison fans vs Dukes fans, like percentage wise?
Also, where are you sitting and what are you wearing...I'll keep an eye out for you in the second half.

For those not watching, NDSU is up 17-6 coming out of halftime. Outside of one huge TD pass for NDSU and a fairly decent passing drive by JMU late in the second half, there hasn't been a ton of offense in this game.

Start of the 4th, NDSU still up, but 17-13 now. This could go down to the wire.
