Get ready for ridiculous ticketmaster fees. A $75 ticket quickly turned into 95

Looking at ticketsā¦We only have three sections for Troy section? Club level is available as well. How do you see that? When I clicked on ticket info it only showed the three levels?

With us playing at Home Friday night we are planning on getting to town early and attending the game. Do the seats label Club have any special perks? The chance to sit next to the oxygen man!

saw Frisco vs SMU as possibility.Ā Yep, real travel and less folks going.Ā That game is a Tuesday at 8 Central.Ā That means out of work minimal 1/2 Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday on a work week.Ā Going to be difficult for lots of folks and if against SMU that is home game for them. Hoping for somewhere else than that. If SMU wins out they may very well end up in a NY6 bowl. If they don't make it to the NY6 bowl and still win the conference they will end up in Boston. If you look at their schedule, itās crazy the respect they seem to be receiving and we arenāt.

Dude is baller. And he ain't no quitter. He's got large nuggets which is why he is a conference champion and may have a chance to repeat Most kids would have quit and moved elsewhere Not G W and the G obviously stands for gunslinger Read this stat in Athletic article. THere are 43 sixth year QBs this year, Gunnar Watson is the only one to never transfer.

We sat out because we weren't eligibile. I'm all about the rules but theres a big difference Not true. When We transitioned in 2001, our record was 7-4 and that included a win over Mississippi State and our loses were to #1 Miami, #4 Nebraska, #15 Maryland, and the unranked MuTS. We sat out of a bowl game because of the rules. In 2002, the second year of no post season play, we stunk it up with a 4-8 record. Our wins came against 1-AA teams at the time. We weren't full-fledged I-A like JMU is. YOU can't count more than 1 FCS (1-AA at the time) win toward bowl eligibility.

Coastal. JMU knows the rules, we sat out when we came up. There will be no asterisk by OUR 8th conference title. We sat out because we weren't eligibile. I'm all about the rules but theres a big difference

I qualify what Iām about to say by saying we basically played a scrimmage against U of Ft Lauderdale. Weāre longer than weāve been. We have 3 really good big guys, and by that I mean tall with reach. Thomas Dowd, a Jr transfer named Theo Seng, and a true center 6ā7ā, wide bodied Randarious Jones. Dowd will likely be used as an outside shooter and board crashing rebounder, Seng and Jones as inside bigs. We have two brothers, Marcus and Myles Rigsby, So and Fr respectively that are legit athletes. Myles had 11 pts and 4 rebounds. Thatās 22 pts and 12 boards for a pair of true FR in Dowd and Rigsby. Put all this with Spud Eugene, Ahmer Muhamed, and Jackson Fields returning, I think we are improved and will be fun to watch. I'm no BB expert, I just enjoy watching and these are the things I observed today. I'd be interested to see what some of you who were able to make the game think. Agree? Disagree? Other thoughts? I was at the game yesterday and thought the same thing. I thought we had a rough first half shooting wise but played better in second. I think we saw good things from newcomers and you left out the top scorer in Tayton Conerway. I think Myles Rigsby is going to be good. I"m interested to see how we fare tomorrow night against Ohio.

The struggle is real when people with GA tickets come into reserved sections. I think better signage would help. My rump has been in the same seats for 21 seasons so every home game I become a part-time "seat finder helper". The highly energetic people who are being paid to keep the metal chairs warm could not find the largest sign ever created being that they cannot look up from their phone while attempting to assist those who are lost. I just handle.... free of charge of course. I actually got video of the one security āwatchingā our section sleeping. Iāll have to track it down

Well Virginia took down North Carolina. Thus by extrapolation JMU should be ranked pretty high. We have a lot of football left but I hope they do allow JMU to play if they win the East. ESPN #23 unranked in AP 25th in AP. Maybe you saw last weeks

If they are anywhere other than the Upper deck near the water tower we are not doing our job! They can have their seats there but if there are empty bleachers below, the ushers at Troy have never told someone to move. We always have āroamersā in our reserved section

Open those wallets and convince everyone you know to do the same. It's pro football now. Trojans played in a $h!#y mess of a ball game last weekend. Beat h#ll out of 'em and was prepared due to NOT having a roof to prepare under. The "recruiting" excuse doesn't hold a lot of water (pun intended) as NIL has much more influence than a pole barn roof. If it's "Pro Football Now" cornhole out of the stadium after 63 years of support. Isn't it basically pro with many of these players making millions now?

I e been going to games since ā95. None of those lyrics sound familiar. Iām old, maybe Iāve forgottenš¤·āāļø If a fact, no wonder they changed it. Not an Alum here but the current lyrics are stirring, until the torch thing at the end, Just me sayin'. You mean raising your sword? So raise your mighty Trojan sword, a beacon to the world. Throughout the ages brightly shines, the guiding light of TROY.

Snowflake feelings. See you in 7 days at the Vet. Youāre the one with the hurt feelings. Coming in here all puffy. You canāt hang with real insight so you just insult people. Now are you threatening me? Get lost you baby. Nobody likes you here anyway. I like Hemi, heās a good guy. Plus, heās not posting during games because heās actually there cheering his butt off.

I get pretty sick of this line as well. Just because younger alums feel a connection to the rivalry with XXX doesn't mean the old heads need to insult the Battle of the Belt as "manufactured" like the Battle for the Ole School Bell came down the mountain with Moses or something. Kick rocks.Ā Also, might note itās easy to encourage a bad tempered rivalry if you are a poster who openly admits to almost never being at a game. "Sure, bring on the bad blood and the poor behavior. I'll be in my backyard with my buddies regardless." Season Ticket holder for decades. Attend vast vast majority of home games. Where or why you think I donāt attend games ?? You just making things up ? The South rivalry was manufactured. It is growing and I enjoy it but it was made up through social media. Good piece of marketplace by the schools. It did not evolve naturally. Kick your bucket of baby tears. If you think south rivalry was manufactured through social media you havenāt been to any of the baseball, softball, basketball, volleyball games between these teams.

Looks like WKU is going to wear white tops, per their Twitter or whatever it's called these days... And we haven't worn cardinal jerseys at home this year... So new cardinal tops??? Yes

It's a big inconvenience for everyone involved. Is it though? For everyone? Or is that just a broad generalization. As Mr. Oxygen states, teams have been filling stadiums for 11 am kicks for years!

Why are people making such a big deal about the 11 am start. I don't think it's a bad thing. Also, was it the school's decision or the Sun Belt's? (It wouldn't let me embed the tweet)
