I'm just curious what the rest of you thought about the "audience participation" this week. I don't know if it was the awesome entrance (fireworks and all) or the pre-game hype, or the desire to show support and confidence in the Tigers after Moeller, or the sheer excitement as this game unfolder - BUT SOMETHING had our fans out of their seats this week! And I loved it! It was a playoff environment!

My question, for you players and parents was - do you hear that? Does it help you on the field? Does it motivate you to play harder? I'm guessing the answer is YES - and if it is, we need to continue doing more of it week in and week out.

There were situations this week that I thought the crowd noise really disrupted and/or disctract the AZ team.

This is a seperate thought (and it may even be a corny one) but as I watched Ohio State kick off this weekend and heard everyone again Say in Unison at the time of the Kick O-H-I-O, I wondered if we shouldn't start a tradition of calling the T-I-G at every kickoff? I don't know...

Coach Stacy said the crowd was definitely into the game and you couldn't help but notice. He said the Arizona coach told him their team definitely noticed and doesn't see that kind of atmosphere, even in their state title game.
