Plus, to be fair, the Hampton Inn there had approximately 1/3 less roaches than the one I stayed in Picayune, MS the night previously. But Picayune had a Walmart that carried Blue Runner products, and I loaded my suitcase up with that glorious grub.
We have only played twice and both games were decided by a field goal. What? Lol
Ponch is great. Glad you liked it.

2-0 in football. 6-3 in basketball. 12-9 in baseball.
All time they’ve bested us in WBB 10-19 but in CUSA play it’s ODU 5-3.

That 2014 team was good too.
ODU always has our number. But that C-USA scheduling is tough. Not too much history outside of WBB.
14: 9-4
15: 9-5
16: 9-4
17: 7-6
18: 8-5
19: 10-3
20: 5-5
21: 2-6 so far
4-10 in our last 14 games.

Idk, I’d like to see them get into a bowl and finally have to play you guys after chickening out in 2012. A loss to ULM would be the perfect ending for them, lol.

Well he’s 6’8”. You throw the ball right double coverage isn’t gonna matter against most safeties and corners
This whole season whenever kuntz catches a pass I let out a loud Kuuuuuuuunttttttzzzzz. It was nice to hear it in other parts of the stadium today.
My wife wouldn't find the humor in that.

Ponchatoula's is good but we've got better in Monroe. Don't worry about food. We've got you covered.

Well, there is certainly some symmetry to that. You think they'd actually accept this time if they knew they were playing us? LOL

First game was decided by a TD pass from Heinicke to David Washington in the north endzone in OT. I saw it with my own eyes!

If we don't leave in 2022 I think Ricky Rahne will have ODU playing decent by 2023, in time for the move to the SB. He probably needs at least another recruiting class.

Thank you kindly! I agree, though fans are holding out hope we will be decent next year, and actually 'good' in 2023. Fingers crossed
