You'll be glad you did! The games are exciting and fun! Pregame activities are special, too!

Thirty (30) days until the season starts! :ymapplause: :ymapplause: :ymapplause:

Coach Cut certainly seemed impressed with their first practice.

Woohoo! That's the one bummer about splitting my tix this year, I won't get my named jersey in the mail next year. And no magnets. I am getting NCSU and unc game tix, maybe off of stubhub. (My Wake seats were awesome last year, 3rd row in the Duke section and cheaper than on Wake's site). Is anyone else going to those two games? Anyone up for getting a bundle of tickets together?

There are THREE Saturdays until the first game. I hope the weather is not as hot as we have now!

I'm trying the rented stadium seat this year and look forward to it's being set up for me before every game. (It appears that the only school with less expensive seat rentals in this program is Wake.) B-)

The only ones I THINK I could make in Durham are NCCU and GaTech.

Which one makes more sense to attend?

If you want a quality opponent, then GA Tech.
If you want a win, then NCCU.
Simple as that.

The NCCU game is part of Homecoming Weekend.

If you have any flexibility in your schedule and want to see an exciting game, I suspect the one on November 28 with Wake Forest is going to be a "barn burner."

The food at the pregame activities will be good each weekend of the season!

Definitely do NOT want Homecoming Weekend (and all the hoopla). Must check and see if GaTech is feasible.

Both would work. ;) :D

Another day checked off the calendar! Fourteen days to go! Only two more Saturdays!

The Wake Forest students are beginning to return to school here. Another reminder that the first football game is getting closer!

Can't help thinking about all the fun in store both inside and outside the stadium. :ymdaydream:

It's time to get out my Duke band CD ..........
