[Eli]

Last Up: L (28-6) @ North Dakota State

Time/Date: 9/11/21 @ 7PM (EST)
TV/Streaming: Flofootball
Local Radio: 104.5

Defense was alright as was the passing game (at least for the first 25-30 min). Run game was atrocious and penalties galore. Need to clean up a bunch of stuff.

How did Rhode Island do on 09-04-2021? Well, the Providence Journal - Press tells the story: https://www.providencejournal.com/story/sports/college/2021/09/05/uri-football-makes-strong-opening-statement-topping-bryant-45-21/5740392001/

I know it's one game and it's against NDSU but other CAA teams played decent OOC opponents and this is how we stacked up:

Just checked the ticket site for an unofficial look at how many seats are still available. At this moment, it looks like anyone can get a good seat just about everywhere. Hopefully there will be a lot of walk-ups or people buying tickets throughout this week. A win last weekend at NDSU would have helped, but the school needs to put out some marketing now. Outside of a few pop-ups on social media and the UA site, I haven't seen anything.

People want to get out. I am sure COVID has some people scared, but that isn't stopping other venues from filling up. The COVID excuse only goes so far. 

This is the home opener.

• "Support your Great Danes before they travel to take on the Syracuse Orange"
• "Come see the Walter Payton Award Watch List Undercuffler and Mofor before they move to the NFL"
• "Sick of being stuck at home? Come out and catch COVID while the Danes Catch Passes by JUC"
• "Tailgaiting starts 4 hours before gametime! Come Party in the parking lot. Just stay sober enough to come and see your Great Danes!"

They raised it? It was $15 last season I think.

Also Not having stripes on the pants is just really odd looking. Not sure what the deal is there lol

Why haven’t they updated the field with the new logo and font?

This team is a tough watch...holy smokes. Brutal....penalty galore, very undeciplined. Run game doesn't even exist ..like they barely try it. Cuff hits a kid on the hands on 3 and 20...wide open drop. 

 

Ugly...ugly...smh

I pay $12.50 a month. Go through the CAA website schedule then watch. It brings up the CAA deal on the screen as an option.
