MoStateHusker Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I guess they want to start some traditions at the fairly new football program Don't know what to think yet... Quote Link to comment
Inwar1 Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Good for them! It's all in good fun. Quote Link to comment
rawhide-jr Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 It's going to be fun hanging 40-plus on them and shutting them out... Quote Link to comment

Don't think, just appreciate what other fans go through to get pumped up for the season. But, wow, what crazy people for having a bonfire in August (in Florida, no less)! Quote Link to comment
hack Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 owls will get burned on the 5th. i'm just saying. Quote Link to comment
JTrain Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Not a bad tradition, but it's a shame they have to schedule top teams to begin the season. Looked kinda silly last year, burning the big Bevo head and then losing 52-10. I don't suspect we beat them that bad, but we'll likely win by three touchdowns or so. Next year I guess they have UAB so maybe they will start a win streak. Quote Link to comment

OwlFamily Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Just old school pep rally stuff folks. Nothing personal. As noted, we burned BEVO in effigy last year, and this year its you guys. This is the second year FAU has hosted a bonfire and it was a great success. Over 1000 showed up (while that may not seem like a lot keep in mind that FAU only started playing Football in 2001 and has only been FBS level since 05) for our biggest crowd ever. We dont have decades or in some cases over a century of tradition to rely on. We are building it one event and one season at a time. I like this one, its a classic thing to do and get everyone involved. Hey who doesnt like a big fire. (even if it was 85 degrees when it was lit) Almost here Husker fans, last I heard 600 tickets had been sold (thru the University). If that many go it will probably be one of the largest travels weve had outside of the bowl games. Quote Link to comment
