Sitting on the West Side with 3 minutes left in the first half. There has been a steady stream of fans leaving since midway of the first half.

It’s not like the team is giving them much reason to stay.

Defense and Special Teams are waking up, just waiting on the offense.

Charlotte should not be in this game. Put the Kool-aid down. Both games have been a subpar showing.

Let me see if I get this straight. We lose our best defensive lineman in Stout. His replacement is injured in spring ball, Willis. We lose our best LB, in Flory. We lose both our corners from last year. And this is all on Roof? Come on man!

Even taking into consideration the loss of players, UNCC should not be within 14 points in the fourth quarter.

Don’t bother arguing that with guy. He’s always been nuttier than squirrel turds.

Returning a senior dl, 3 senior linebackers and 2 senior dbs, plus 8 of 11 starters is a teams dream come true. Yes in this scenario, against this level of opponent you would probably blame coaching

Sure, but our CBs are both new and not up to the task of playing one on one. It means that blitzes are inherently more risky if you can’t get there. It leaves the middle open and the safeties are caught in no man’s land.

We need a huge banner at all the exits that just says “Why y’all leavin? Game ain’t over”.

5 years at App State and I saw the band march in every game and I stayed till after their post-game concert.

Why does this surprise you? It has happened every game for years.

Game operations are miserable. Second game in a row with 6 minutes left in 3rd main concession stand on west side down to one open window and out of tons of items. No pretzels with 21 minutes of game time left two weeks in a row. They were giving away popcorn so they could close and certain soft drinks not sold out,.. not sold out “but out of cold ones”. There are 4-5 home games left, we should be well stocked...especially after running out of same items last week. If the workers are done, the fans are too. Do they want people to stay or leave? trying to spread out traffic? Exits are terrible. They need to lock down old stadium exit for 30 minutes like they have done before. I was in line longer to leave than bag check and ticket entrance, standing on opposite side of west gate. They quite possibly let too many people in today given construction zone and lack of north end zone seats. Must have been miserable on the bank and was trying to move anywhere.

They said the same thing about us when we played Penn State. Charlotte came to play, we're probably thinking about the UNC game or were busy downing Yosef Golden Ale last night.
