Great game in Gloomington yesterday, nice to end the season on a high note. In spite of the "would, coulda, shoulda" of this season I can't say I'm disappointed in the team. We ended up 4-4 in the Big Ten after being picked to go 1-7 in conference. The Seniors played well all year long and we saw some glimpses of great play from the underclassmen.
Thanks for everything this year and we'll see you at basketball homecoming in February!

Game 11: MSU
A Charlie Brown Tailgate
Sparty comes to town with Purdue’s bowl hopes still alive after the great win in Ann Arbor last weekend. MSU has been up and down this season, much like the Boilers, let’s all hope that they bring their “down” game this week! We’ll cheer hard for a Boiler victory over the green and white.
Normally we do a Thanksgiving themed tailgate where we deep fry a turkey, but I’ve decided that this year we’re just going to do a “Charlie Brown” style tailgate. We’ll throw together some hot dogs, hamburgers, some sides, and of course popcorn. I might even grab some cereal and toast. (Anyone who has actually seen the Charlie Brown special will know what I’m talking about.)

Instead of doing a Thanksgiving for ourselves we're hoping to deliver a Thanksgiving dinner to somebody else. I would greatly appreciate if you could bring along a non-perishable item to donate to the local food pantry's holiday food drive. If you bring it to the tailgate, we'll make sure it gets donated!
We will plan on meeting in the S lot on Saturday morning, hopefully towards the front of the lot just like last year. The S lot is across from the Slater Hill and the Stone Cold Tailgating Club spot is marked by the gold square.
For those of you parking in the IM Gold Lot it is only a 5 minute walk to the S lot, just think of us being on the way to the stadium! We have the large flagpole that extends to 20 feet and an ambulance so hopefully you will be able to locate us easily.

Game 10: scUM
While the Boilers are making a road trip to Ann Arbor, a place they haven't won in 40+ years, a few of us will be making a trip to visit SCTC member Chris Coons in Austin, TX. Below is Chris's itinerary for this "boy's weekend." Everyone have fun this week and let's hope for a Boiler victory and no arrests in Austin.

Everything is BIGGER in TEXAS
Okay, so I am not Eric, but he has inspired me to create this little document. First and foremost, thanks to all of you for coming down to visit. I look forward to hosting your stinky smelly asses. I have two air mattresses and a couch so sleeping should not be a problem. My apartment has two bathrooms as well so we should be covered there. Sorry Eric, the shower head will hit you mid chest if you are lucky. I debated buying one of those handicap chairs to put in the shower.

Game 9: Purdue 0 Bucky 37 (3-6)
Ouch, what a butt kicking that was! Bucky ran it down our throat and we looked powerless to stop them. I'm just glad that I was sick with a very high fever, that means I can pretend it was a hallucination caused by the temperature.
