Something to improve on next season....

Something to improve on next season....

Just something for next year.. before the game (once the gates open), there shouldn't/can't be any long periods of silence leading up to the pre-game ceremonies. No wonder people stay in the parking lot until half way through the first quarter, they wouldn't know anything is happening inside the stadium….

If you go to any professional (or high level college) they have an entire game presentation dept. in charge of things like this. I understand FAU probably doesn't have the budget, but at least put someone in charge. Or at the very least, play recorded music all pre-game long. There were 5-10 minute stretches where all you could hear was the sound of the kickers warming up. Also, game presentation-wise, there are always timing problems getting dance teams on and off the field, on field presentations taking too long, band stopping/starting play at the right time…..these are little things, but if you come into the stadium as an outsider (and there was a small but vocal showing from A-State….or even worse, just a local casual football fan coming to a game for the first time) you would leave thinking that the program is really bush league.

The athletic department does a much better job of this during basketball games, so they need to carry it over to football. Hopefully someone in the athletics dept reads this and can get some of these problems fixed going forward.

The basketball games are on campus…I'm sure once the football games are on campus as well, there will be more activities and traditions before, during, and after the games.

I think they should fire the cannons ealry to get everyones attention and get them in the stands.......although there is never enough time to tailgate!
