Message: [QUOTE="reedny, post: 2289003, member: 1423"] You can be "collegiate" and celebrate tradition without being lame. We have a LOT of work to do on in-game experience. The Otto skits were awful. Racing him against a kid with no outfit? And the boxes and shopping cart? Wow. I think we can do better. I love the bell (it's a tradition going way back), but the whistle was awesome -- and also fit the "Empire Express" (E. Davis) legacy (along with SU being the only P5 FB team in the Empire State). Those are unique, endemic themes to build on. We could ring the bell every time we kick a PAT -- which would be better since we can't hear the bell after a TD anyway. It's not loud enough. So ... much work to be done here. More importantly, the defense looked much improved. And the offense looked GOOD for the first game. [/QUOTE]
