would like to hear from folks in Athens what the mood is like on camp today. Is there an "oh well, back to the buckeye bandwagon" vibe or is it more of a "let's rally around the team and show up full force on thursday" vibe?

Haha....good one. I hope it's not "let's raise the beer prices."

This is step up time.....everything gets laid on the line and we play every game like the 7th game of the world series....freshmen are no longer freshmen....seniors need to play like their seniors.....coaches need to hold nothing back and go for the jugular.....we no longer have the eyepatch but we can show how we got it and knock it off the faces of those that think we're dead in the water.

The pressure is off now. No one outside the OHIO camp is expecting us to win out. This is when Solich really tightens things up. I would love nothing more than for this team to go out Thursday, have fun and play freely. With four games left this is when the season really gets fun.

The BG game is a black out, I say we make the EMU game a green out. The slogan could be- Get yOUr Green OUt With yOUr (hallo)Ween OUt.

Just saw a promo for the game on ESPNU during 30 for 30. Don't think I've ever seen one of our games promoed on fan ESPN channel outside a game broadcast.

Does anybody have a solution for a poor soul like myself to watch the game at home that doesn't have ESPNU and according to ESPN3/WatchESPN.com the game is blacked out for the entire Eastern Time Zone. Going to the game isn't an option since I have to work during the day and I'm in East Tennessee. I plan on taking off work and going to the BG game though!

I'm wary of using firstrow ever again. I have an annoying bug on my computer and I'm pretty sure it came from there.

Solich in the pre-game presser - The Team is excited to get back to winning.

I expect the team to come back after the Miami game re-charged and ready to end this season! It has already been said, but if we were going to drop one this season the Miami game was the "best" one.

The pressure has been lifted somewhat, and it is time to get down to unfinished business...

I'm not optimistic about the student turnout. Everything is going against us for this one..

I've seen crazier things happen.

Does it put advertising links on random words in the middle of webpages? I've been getting that a lot lately just on the laptop I used to access firstrow.

Thanks for the info oldkatz, I appreciate it!

I saw some of the other comments about issues with the website. I have an ad-blocker. Think that would help?

Lookin' like good football weather by game time! Actually - lookin' to be a repeat of weather last Saturday. If the wind is at his back, on any 4th and too far, let Weller kick away from anywhere less than 60.........if we're up by couple scores maybe even 65!

I hope you have a good anti-virus, too, plus some other malware scanners, like malwarebytes. I tried that website during the Marshall game, and I must say that the picture was excellent, much better than what I get from ESPN3. On the other hand, my antivirus kept going off, and saying that it was blocking malicious things that were trying to install. Now, my NOD32 is an OK antivirus...but...I really prefer not to test its limits. It doesn't matter what anti-virus you have - if you expose it to risk, sooner or later something will get through. Therefore, after 2-3 warnings in quick succession, I shut the game down, and just listened to the rest on the Power 105 feed. Later, when I had time, I ran scans with both the antivirus and Malwarebytes, plus I used a couple other free online scanners from Trend and Kaspersky, and my computer came up clean. I haven't had any problems, but I'm also not going to try that link again.

As for the game, this would be the game when I hope they can jump to a big lead early, and play the subs a lot. The BG game will be the 3rd game in 12 days, so it will be a tired Bobcat team against a well rested BG team, with a week and a half rest.

If you are using chrome, the linked words are an extension that gets installed when using the first row site. Go to tools and then extensions and you should be able to remove it from there. I had the same problem a few weeks ago and now I don't.

There are ads that pop up in the video player itself and Ad Block can't stop those. Most of the ones I see have a red box with "close" in white underneath them. Just click that to make them go away. Also, if you mute the feed for any reason, don't click the unmute button that pops up over the video. That's an ad. just click the same button you used to mute it in the first place. Or just simply turn your speakers down if you have to.

I'm loving the fact that this is a short turnaround now (both from a fan perspective and from a player perspective). Foster mentioned in an interview that he's glad they can get right back out there. No more dwelling on something that can't be changed.

Lets get some Bobcats!!!

As far as Student turnout, I think it's going to be pretty decent now that the weather's looking better and I've seen a lot of tweets about the free Chick-Fil-A and winter hats. Plus if memory serves, the 6:00 Thursday night start time is probably a good thing in their minds.

GoBobcats!!!! Always have been and always will be... Ohio's First and Finest!
