Welcome to the 1st LIVE GPP blog at the new FIU Stadium and 2nd overall. Looking at less than 10 minutes before the Blue (Raiders) and the Gold (Panthers) kick it off.
FIU is in its home midnight blue tops and jerseys. MT is wearing all white with blue and silver trim. Cloudy skies, but no rain at FIU Stadium.
Let's go blogging....

Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 07:45 PM
Our running game has not done anything.
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 07:52 PM

Posted by: kjharris02 | October 11, 2008 at 08:23 PM

Posted by: blkpanther | October 11, 2008 at 08:26 PM

At least they threw in the Dazzlers
I will also take this 10-3 lead and be thankful.
Hope u guys saw that Toledo beat MIchigan in Ann Arbor
Posted by: The OC Panther | October 11, 2008 at 08:32 PM
I am watching on PP and listening to 940 on line. The radio guys ae like a play ahead of the PP coverage...not fun.
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 08:38 PM
OC Panther, that Toledo win looks more legit now for sure.
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 08:40 PM

Posted by: The OC Panther | October 11, 2008 at 08:46 PM
This back up qb for MTSU scares me.
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 08:47 PM
dasher new qb for MT....he's the one that killed FIU last year
Posted by: Pete Pelegrin | October 11, 2008 at 08:48 PM
See if coach MC can adjust to this qb.
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 08:49 PM
I am here now, and it looks like we are doing well
GO FIU!!!
Posted by: Baltimore Panther | October 11, 2008 at 08:50 PM

Posted by: Pete Pelegrin | October 11, 2008 at 08:51 PM
Quijote and gpantera came by the press box at halftime.....good to meet both of you.
Posted by: Pete Pelegrin | October 11, 2008 at 08:52 PM
Damnit! I saw this guy destroy FIU last year, at Murfreesboro! This can't be good!
Cristobal, PLEASE figure out how to stop him!
Posted by: TNGoldenPanther | October 11, 2008 at 08:53 PM
17-6, our offense needs to step up, at least get 3 out of this drive. GO FIU!!!
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 08:55 PM

This is awesome!!! We gave up 3 points and our offense comes back right down the field, this is awesome!! Pete, my question last week on how to buy NO Bowl tickets is not that far fetched it looks like.
GO FIU
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 09:08 PM
ITS GREAT TO BE A GOLDEN PANTHER!!
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 09:09 PM
I can get used to this winning thing!
BTW, I know that Jim Mandich has the radio rights to FIU Football but, good God, he's got to know that his son is BRUTAL to listen too! When he talks, he says words but really doesn't say anything!
Posted by: TNGoldenPanther | October 11, 2008 at 09:11 PM
DAMN!! We gave up a TD, need to respond.
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 09:13 PM

Posted by: blkpanther | October 11, 2008 at 09:31 PM
WOW, way to go FIU! Look out Troy!
Posted by: kjharris02 | October 11, 2008 at 09:35 PM
Hate to dig up the past, but what a difference from the 2006 game where we did not capitalize or adjust in our game plan on our 6-0 lead and lost 7-6. I know it is still a long way away but way we are playing, need to lock up Mario long-term.
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 09:37 PM
who know how much time is left?
Posted by: blkpanther | October 11, 2008 at 09:39 PM
u got to be kidding me? trick play?
Posted by: blkpanther | October 11, 2008 at 09:41 PM
Y not, they don't have anything to lose now?
Posted by: kjharris02 | October 11, 2008 at 09:43 PM
Scratching my head on that trick play, trying to be too cute.
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 09:45 PM
how much time left on this game?
Posted by: Baltimorepanther | October 11, 2008 at 09:55 PM
they beginning to unravel
Posted by: blkpanther | October 11, 2008 at 09:55 PM
Kick interference, we need to think out there!! We are keeping them in this game!
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 09:56 PM
someone needs to knock the happy feet off of Dasher
3:03 left
Posted by: The OC Panther | October 11, 2008 at 09:57 PM
OMG Panther pass is killing me with all this graphics during the game
Posted by: blkpanther | October 11, 2008 at 10:00 PM
GAME OVER!!! ALLLRRRIIGGHHHTT PANTHERS!!!
Damn it feels good!
Good job boys!
Posted by: TNGoldenPanther | October 11, 2008 at 10:00 PM

FEEL THE PRIDE! ROAR! GO FIU!!
Posted by: NYCFIUFan | October 11, 2008 at 10:01 PM
FF II UU!!!
Posted by: Baltimorepanther | October 11, 2008 at 10:03 PM
Now lets get ready for Troy, anything can happen and maybe we will win. We got to believe look at Toledo, we are not better than Michigan, but we did what they couldn't do, anything can happen and we are the HOT team on the Belt right now, if we keep the intensity and take care of business then maybe we can win next week.
Posted by: Baltimorepanther | October 11, 2008 at 10:06 PM
feels great to win.. im starting to get used to this ;)
Posted by: The OC Panther | October 11, 2008 at 10:06 PM
I had to leave with about 7 minutes left cause my son was sick but what a game...AWESOME WIN...
but seriously, we were practically giving tickets away and we didnt fill up the cage...and as much as i hate calling out people who actually came to the game, can we stop running on cuban time and actually get to the game by kickoff.
other than those frustrations...AWESOME...bring on Michigan...I mean Troy
Posted by: outofthecage88 | October 11, 2008 at 10:11 PM
watching that TY TD made the price of Panther pass completely worth it. Not to mention the Gaitor interceptions.
Also look forward to watching B-ball and V-ball on it.
GO FIU!!
Posted by: The OC Panther | October 11, 2008 at 10:12 PM
Nice win, Golden Panthers!
I could have done without the fake punt though. That kind of playcalling will kill us in a close game. I'll give the coaches a pass on that one since we were up 31-13.
Congratulations to the coaches and players. This team is really showing maturity and leadership. The hard work is starting to really pay off. We just need to keep doing the right things and working even harder now.
Posted by: SouthPaw | October 11, 2008 at 10:18 PM
To get that stadium filled we need to pay people to come sit in the stands and hire some dazzlers from tootsies to come dance at half time.
Posted by: blkpanther | October 11, 2008 at 10:19 PM
Can anyone who went to the game estimate how many people showed to up watch?
Posted by: TNGoldenPanther | October 11, 2008 at 10:20 PM
blkpanther, if they do that, I'll drive down from Tennessee to see that!
Posted by: TNGoldenPanther | October 11, 2008 at 10:22 PM
what is the story with the kids getting on the field, it was a good win but we didn't beat USC or clinch the New Orleans Bowl
Posted by: nycfiufan | October 11, 2008 at 10:29 PM
blkpanther, I'll drive from California if they do that
Posted by: The OC Panther | October 11, 2008 at 10:30 PM
