Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.

MTSU had prety poor attendance for our game I thought!
And I gotta say college athletics may be pricing itself out of range for the real fans. Our tickets to the UGA game are $45 each, so a family of four is $180 plus parking plus food. So easily $250 per game for a family - ouch!
Where will you be seating Georgia?
Btw, if you don't mind me asking, what part of GA do you reside in? I have kin up in Gainesville, right in the middle of both Atlanta and Athens. One of their kids went to Tech, the other went to UGA. And another goes to Southern now, fyi.
Section 103, row 7 (don't ask me how?). We live in Cumming which is on the southwest corner of Lake Lanier about 20 minutes north of the Perimiter and Atlanta. One of my daughters graduated from UGA and got her Masters from Ga. St. (new family rivalry there - ha ha).
I heard Cumming is a great place to live.

You play Wilbert the 1st half. If we are down > 21 points you give Curtis and Bracewell the 2nd half. We need to make sure we have QB's with game experience next year.
Neither Curtis or Bracewell will start next year. It will be either MG3, or another recruit who could be JUCO or a ftic freshman.

“They’re (Georgia) one of the better teams in the country and we have our work cut out for us,” said FAU coach Carl Pelini, whose team lost 31-17 at Middle Tennessee last week. “But for me, where we are right now, it’s not as much about the opponent as it is about us and getting our guys to get better. We’re not a very good fundamental football team. We need to keep working on that and just worry about getting better day to day.”
Big payday, long odds: For $1 million each, FAU to face No. 7 Georgia, then No. 1 Alabama

Nice piece from the Washington Post on the Owls' Pay Day(s) for the next two weeks…

Those crazy expectations are why the SEC is so good. If all us fans put that much pressure on coaches and administration we would most likely be real good right now.TeamBeer said
I wonder if Richt gets a pass bc of his off field persona a bit…no doubt he's a very good man, he's adopted like 10 kids or something, very charitable, involved in his church, etc…but UGA has had more player arrests than anyone other than Florida in the last 5 years, it's crazy! How is that not bigger news? Maybe bc they're not in the national title talks? I don't get it.
Also crazy are the expectations of the SEC boosters and fans, the guy almost lost his job last year and win 10 games, ridiculous.

MG3. The question is whether we can get a really solid 3-star QB prospect for the next recruiting class.
According to Rivals we have an offer out to one 4 star (Cord Sandberg, solid on Miss State) and two 3-star QBs, one pro-style and one dual-threat.
