A Message to YSU Fans From Eric Wolford

[ysuguins4]

I am expecting a huge walk up for this game.

We're going to need it, if the info Wick was given is accurate.  The largest November crowd within the past 10 years was only 14,000 in 2006 against SIU.  The two playoff games that year were around 11,000.

Great idea Nation. If we could only get marketing involved. Oh and by the way Happy, bite me.

I meant us stand and chant that until we score. Say Hi to Bunny for me.

I'm expecting a huge walk up crowd. Ohio State will roll Illinois, weather is gonna be beautiful. Shaping up for a nice crowd....

This is sad:

The Stambaugh capacity of 20,063 makes it the largest stadium in the Missouri Valley. Ticket sales as of Wednesday morning were a little more than 10,000, but it’s also typical of any November game, said Trevor Parks, Youngstown’s sports information director.

Well, this isn't any typical November game for YSU. C'mon Parks!

10,500 tickets have been sold as of 5pm Thursday..... Yikes.

Agreed

[IAA Fan]

I think we have to realize that this is (nothing personal lake) a team from North Dakota ...interest is low. The more you pump "defending national champs" ...the better. Also, we lost last week ...that is loss #2. So I guess it's fan education.

[ysufan0505]

You have to take in consideration that Fitch has a playoff that night. I know a lot of people that are going to the Fitvh game 2 hours away so there's that.

First off - GO GUINS !

This is not a pitch for the Austintown game, but go Falcons as I believe the brother #94 is the starting center.

For those of you leaving after the YSU game to go watch Fitch (kickoff is 7:30) here are directions:
If you take I-76 to Rt. 30 it will take you SE, but may be better due to speed limits.  If you go Rt. 21 to
Rt. 585 there is a section of 45 mph just before Smithville which is heavily patroled and Smithville is a SPEED TRAP

Directions to Arlin Football Field in Mansfield

Route 30 West

Take the Trimble Road exit

Turn left onto North Trimble Road

Turn left onto W. 4th Street

Turn right at Tower Drive

If u follow HS football and you are not a parent or a scout then you have no life and you are a mental midget.

Good luck trying to make it Mansfield in time! If anyone tries to hit both games. God be with them lol

[ScarletRook]

Yet sadly, they pack more into a stadium than YSU.
I will be in the stadium rooting for the Penguins.

Correction on directions  Rt. 585 not Rt. 83 FWIW

So we are midgets for supporting our alma maters? How's it differ from supporting our alma maters in college?

[ScarletRook]

Exactly ysufan.... it will take ALL of 2 hrs to get there so you will miss the first qtr.

ValleyTalk - that was not my statement.
