Just found out I'll be in Louisville tomorrow but won't be able to make it to the game until kickoff or early first quarter. Never been to a game at X. Will parking be a nightmare or any suggestions for parking for late arriving fans?. Thanks. I'm thinking 28 -24 St.X over BG.

 

You can always park off Clarks Lane at the hospital and make the short walk to X.

Thanks, I'll give that a try.

The Purples sound like they're going to be a great crowd with them. Their's a fan bus for the students...so parking could get interesting earlier tomorrow.

Looks like the Tigers may be getting an injured player back on the field tonight.

What kind of concessions we talking about? Looks like I am going to miss lunch.

Grilled chicken, angus burger,Johnsonville brats, steak fries plus the usual concession fare at reasonable prices.

Great game between two of the top 4 teams in the state. Take your pick on this one...but i will give the slightest edge to the Purples. 35-34.

:banana: 6 hrs til kickoff.

4 hours till pregame tailgate....

Looking forward to a great game. I still believe the Purples can pull it off. X fans, looking forward to revisiting your campus with some old friends. You have to give the Purples credit for being a public school and competing with (and sometimes beating) you guys. As I mentioned earlier, when you are at game take a good look around. You will see the purest sport there is tonight; passionate fans on both sides of field, smaller kids not paying attention playing with their friends, former players wishing they could take field 1 more time, concerned and overly excited mothers rooting for their boys. The list could go on and on.

 

It will be fun.

 

Purples 41

X 21

 

It doesn't cost you anything to dream.

Dreams are indeed free! Last year I was in the press box at BG when X led 23-13. The Purple staff in the box were very impressed with the X team and kindly asked that X not score 45 points on them. They had not given up 20+ points to anyone during their 17 game winning streak at the time. Little did anyone know that X QB Austin Gahafer was hurt on the last play of the half. The game totally changed as X kept going 3 and out for most of the second half. I don't think that will happen this year with the offensive firepower that X possesses. This X team is much better than last year's squad. Both teams will score points. Hayes and Fant of BG are legitimate stars. I think X does score 40 plus tonight and wins 41- 31. The ST. X size on both sides of the ball need to control the outcome. Hope my dream comes true!

Games are not played on paper and obviously the past is no promise of the future. But I can tell you this - I would be beyond stunned to see X get 41 points. The 2005 state title game is the only time Bowling Green has allowed that many since 1987. And they've never allowed that many in a game they scored more than 21 points in, which tells me when they give up that much it is because they are way out of their league. They are not way out of their league here.

They have never played a team as big and good on offense as they will tonight!
