Nice touch by the crowd with the cell phone lights during the Kanye West Lights song. I thought it was cool and could catch on. Very catchy and really looks great...even for this old guy! Great crowd participation.

Wish a bigger crowd would have stuck around a little longer, would have made it even better. I think it was when Idaho scored to make it a 2 possession game late in the 3rd qtr, i noticed many get up to leave. After spending all that time getting there, parking, etc.. you leave when were down 9 with a whole quarter left to play? WTF? sad...

I'm too cheap to leave early. I spent the $ to watch four quarters, dangnabbit, I'm gonna watch four quarters.

That has allowed me to see some remarkable last minute wins (CMU 2001 & 2015) and losses (Akron game, I forgot the year...wish I could forget the game).

In Lester We Trust!

Go Broncos!

Akron 2007...we don't speak of that game

That's just how it is. Best get used to it.

We're leading by a TD - 'We're going to win, we're only playing a school from the MAC'

We're losing by a TD - 'We suck. No way can we come back. We're a MAC team.'

Also, it's why I never leave early. As a sports fan, I know that things can get crazy.

Agreed that lights thing was very cool...not a huge fan of the music on every third down for the visiting team. Seemed like they had tons of them and it got a little old...then again, maybe it was because they were coverting on them...third down coversions flipped in the second half as did the game.

Well I can not say enough how much I DID NOT miss the row the boat bull sh1t after the 3rd quarter...
