Not surprised Akron is a pay-per-view game. Anyone know the game time? Hopefully it's a 7 p.m. kickoff. The 11 a.m. game vs. TU just sucks. I've read where the players like the early games, but I'm not a fan of 11 a.m. kickoffs. And Section 22 is right, it will be a sauna midway through the first quarter and Medic will be working his *** off trying to revive and people who fell out due to heat, humidity and a lack of hydration. :(

Yeah, it do get hot there...
An observation.
You're dehydrated, weak and 82 years old, and they really expect you to navigate down 62 steps, stand in line to buy a four dollar bottle of water?
When it's over 85, 90 degrees, they should have all manner of Boy Scouts, Mormons, whoever aggressively offering water to anyone with the strength to call out for it...for cost!

I like Joe Castiglione, he's great, but he has totally dropped the ball in this single regard.
The U makes 7 million every home game, they won't go bankrupt keeping the fans safe in the extreme heat.

OK, I'm done with editorial comment.

The PPV game will be a 6 or 7 pm kick. The 11 am Tulsa game is gonna blow.
Mix in a few Breakfast Bloody Marys with that Humi-Ditty and there will be No Room @ Medic's Inn, as well as a half-time stampede for the Exits...
