Thanks dad. How bout we decide on our own how to feel without all the cheerleaders.

No offense, but what on earth prompted you to start this thread?

North Carolina fans freaking out because they lost to the Providence Storm in the Bahamas Friday.

They lost to a storm called Providence but we could lose to the GG's.

If we lose - Bashers: See I told you so, he doesn't have the team ready, he can't coach and this is a bad sign for the season, just wait until we play Wichita State and get blown out

If we win close - Bashers: See I told you so, we almost lost, he can't coach and this is a bad sign for the season, just wait until we play Wichita State and get blown out

If we lose close - Bashers: See I told you so, we barely won, he can't coach and this is a bad sign for the season, just wait until we play Wichita State and get blown out

So I am assuming no TV...

I didnt buy my sec 107s this year. Am I a bad person?

Is there a way to watch the game and when is it?

The purpose of today's game is not victory. The purpose is obtaining a better understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of our team against a quality opponent. I believe the majority of Tiger fans have the sophistication and maturity to understand the true purpose while evaluating the game results.

Hogwash. You play to win every game. You don't think our coaches and players feel that way? Winning sets a tone and develops attitude.

To each their own. These are nothing more than scrimmages, the benefit is the extra practice time we got.

Every game is an exercise in determining strengths and weaknesses. But you play to win.

Folks will freak out if Memphis falls behind 2-0.

Or more so they will toy with the fans.

OP just tweaking that group- which still oddly appears less acceptable than when that group tweaks the Memphis fans, which gets all sorts of support.

Late summer exhibitions, playing will help, win or lose- with no real direct impact though. Enjoy kicking Peay ass.

I have always felt sorry for those mouth-breathing fans who are so dense that they think coaching is the only factor in wins and losses.

Yup. Most people know Winning was not the main objective when CJP set up this trip to Canada....along with its NCAA sanctioned EXTRA practices. Players will be allowed to play through mistakes. They gotta bring it, though.

Go Tigers!
