ESPN College Gameday

Saw my doolie cadet up close on ESPN College Gameday today that was broadcast from the Terrazzo! He was so excited about them coming. Had to be the most beautiful backdrop ever to their outdoor broadcast booth with the chapel and mountains in the background.

Eagle36,

Did your sign happen to say, "This is Mandatory"!? I thought that one was hilarious!! There were several funny signs, including a marriage proposal! I really enjoyed seeing USAFA on TV. It looked like a gorgeous day and the cadets' enthusiasm was awesome!

my borther goes to school there, so i promised him i'd have a sign. and yes, i do. yet i also have a lot of friends at Nebraska. so although i'm more partial to the Sooners, i hope the win Saturday gives the cornhuskers the momentum to win the north and upset saxeT in the big 12 championship.

The proposal sign said, "Marry me Angelina"...or Angeleana...or some name like that. It looked like they made it in a hurry!

I also saw one that said, "I 'heart' H2O"...??? I'm guessing maybe a Mid? Then there was ones that just said a name, and had an arrow pointing down! LOL!! Oh, and my personal favorite: "I 'heart' Mom"!! I'm sure that was my cadet! ....tee hee.

Did any of you folks tape this - and maybe post it to facebook, or better, HERE? I would love to have a gander at that to see my favorite two cadets.

Fencer, if your cadets are the ones in the Wolfpack and Fighters, I see one of them on a near daily basis. Just realized that the other day.
