So here we are on a Sunday Gameday. Weird, huh? Not as weird as playing the nolies on Friday after Thanksgiving. I wonder if the stands at Ron Zook Field will be half full. They say they did it for TV but if you don't have butts in the seats, did you really gain anything?
But back to Gameday! I'm looking for a first half blowout against EWU so that Jalen Kitna can get some meaningful snaps in the second half. Well, any snaps would be good. He's one pulled hammy from being QB1. Would be nice if he had taken a snap in a real game before that happens. Of course, there are a bunch of other players who need some PT as well. Go Gators!

They had to kill my buzz by saying that this game was scheduled because of Jim McElwain, who is a former EWU quarterback.
My eldest stepdaughter graduated from EWU, and I have been on the campus several times. It's a nice campus. The red field is a bit blinding, though.
An EWU helmet sits in my modest mini helmet collection - which includes my pro teams, and schools that I and members of the family have attended. There is one omission. I cannot be persuaded to spend money on an Oklahoma State mini helmet.
The collection, for those interested:
Florida (alma mater)
Oklahoma (also alma mater)
Nevada (youngest stepdaughter graduated undergraduate)
Eastern Washington (eldest stepdaughter graduated undergraduate)
Jacksonville Jaguars
Las Vegas Raiders
Arizona Cardinals (memento of a pleasant trip)
Dallas Cowboys (Wife's team)
Jacksonville Sharks (World Football League - I was a STH)
Jacksonville Express (World Football League - I was a STH)
Jacksonville Bulls (USFL, first iteration)
I have also been gifted with a couple of autographed mini helmets: A Tony Boselli autographed Jaguars helmet, and a Fred Taylor autographed Gators helmet.
My youngest stepdaughter graduated from veterinary school at Oklahoma State, and she is currently in a veterinary residency there. That one will always be an omission.
