by I almost feel cheated that Doc Brown didn’t pick me up in his De Lorean and bring me back to 1985 to watch this video. Ron Prince made sure that if blowing a 4th quarter lead to Auburn wasn’t enough to embarrass K State then this video would. I mean what the fuck… Are they going to play this at games when they want you to wave your Power Towel? Did nobody tell K State that waving a towel is pointless and only makes your fans and team look like douche bags.
If I were to make a video trying to get the intensity of my student section up during games these would be the key points:
- The main theme would be to drink a pint of liquor before each game
- Throughout the video you would hear: “Did you drink your liquor?!”, “Make sure to drink your liquor pint!” and “You better get drunk and rowdy off your liquor pint!”
- The background music would be a remix of 2 Live Crew, Pop Dat Pussy
- There would be no special effect fireworks
- Being fellated by three coeds, the biggest benefit of being a student fan, would be displayed prominently

Heres a new tradition you shouldn’t have implemented, The Zookie. IE, sit on a small lead until you conservative play calling is soo predictable you go three and out everytime and dont give sufficient rest to your defense. Then that tired defense allows 4th quarter comebacks and you lose. I have another tradition, its called encourage your student section to commence drinking 6 hours before the game. This is what successful, big time schools do. Go to a Penn State home game and see how many people can stand on their own. Take a breathalizer to Blacksburg and when it breaks after the first six people maybe then you will realize what it takes to make a hostile home enviroment. Time to clue you in, waving a towel creates no sound, and your fucking gay mascot cant play a guitar at the games. What does create sound is your entire student body being so belligerently drunk they call in the riot police when you win. Contrary to popular belief The Swamp got its nickname from the smell of vomit exuding for miles from drunken students who decided to puke on away fans in celebration of their team’s dominance, but maybe when you remember to bring your towels you can use them to clean eachother up.

Home records last 7 years:
Penn St–33-14
VT– 40-8
UF– 37-7
KSU– 37-13
KSU has a better winning % than Penn St. 4 of those 7 years VT was in the Big East and good for Florida.
Last out of conference road loss for USC–Kansas State

KSU did have a phenomenal year when they beat USC, and last year came up with an impressive win against then #4 Texas, but the fact still remains the power towel and willie chant are gay. There is no substitute for a loyal, hard drinking student body to create a hostile enviroment, or a head coach that understands when you play not to lose, you almost always do.

There is no way you can compare (Insert Lame Stadium Name Here) Stadium to the home field advantage at either Lane Stadium or the Swamp.

Mikey I agree that the majority of chants are gay, the towel is probably just to have around to wipe sweat off during the first couple home games. However I am not sure the head coach played to not lose. KSU threw the ball over 55 times and ran it under 10 times, with nearly no carries in the second half. The only TD for KSU was a TD pass from a WR.
cgb—The point of posting the records is to prove that there might not be as big of a home field advantage as people think. Case in point–If the crowd is such a big deal and the emotion coming from them is that great, why did VT only beat ECU by 10 points in a game with SO much meaning to it?
The only way to really measure a “home field advantage” is to go off a win/loss record. And even then that can be a little skewed…unless Papa John’s Stadium is really THAT tough to play at.
6cgb on Sep 7, 2007 at 4:06 pm:
Yeah right now VT is an average 1 loss a year at home while K State is 1.5. That is the difference between elite home field and ordinary BCS conference home field.
Also we did beat ECU right… Unless you are taking into account margin of victory into the formula?

I was talking more about the 4th quarter. Alot of short passes underneath Auburn’s coverage. They never really took it to Auburn and put them on the spot. I didnt see them take a big shot down field until the end when they had thrown that INT. I know that K St didnt rush the ball very often, but that had probably more to due with the fact they could not generate a solid rushing attack. Maybe you could cite the QB for not looking further down field, but its a coaches responsibility to tell him, “Hey, hit so and so when he passes the 30.” Or to call different plays that force Auburn to commit a penalty down field to not give up a big catch. I will say this however, the 16 penalties for 141 yards and 3 turnovers dont help out a coach’s gameplan. But those are the intangibles a coach has to be prepared for. It seemed, at least to me, that towards the end, they were just trying to hang on. I would have rather seen them pull out all the stops like Boise State did against Oklahoma. Thats what I meant when I said play not to lose.

Don’t forget your power towel! Bring it, to every game.

That is the point…The crowd has nothing to do with it when it comes down to wins and losses. If the crowd makes such a difference VT would have won by 50 points. But they didn’t. The “home field advantage” is ALL because of the team, not the fans, which gets back to the original point…it doesn’t really matter if people think that a really drunk student section changes games because it doesn’t.
IMO it just shows a lack of support if you have to get piss ass drunk to watch a ball game. The game enough should be all the enjoyment in the world. If having a piss ass drunk student section equals a great student section then I am sure K-State had the best in the country before the 90s when they were the worst football program ever and a football game was more than just a reason to get drunk–but to forget about the actual game. They had nothing else to do back then for them except get destroyed at ball games.
**Good points Mikey

At least once a game the home crowd at VT, Florida, etc negatively impacts the visitor. Furthermore, the fans positive helps in setting momentum and tempo. I don’t expect you to understand because at KSU you are trying to force a big time college football atmosphere and have never experienced it first hand.

Hahaha, Martin, great way to utilize the power towel.
