Will this be the largest crowd ever up at UVA-Wise?

I would imagine it will be close to last year. The cold may keep quite a few at home.

IMO the cold will keep several away and Lebanon won't bring as many as PV did last year so I don't think this will be the largest ever.

You guys are right about the temperature. IIRC, I don't think it was quite as chilly last year. It's going to be blisteringly cold tomorrow for sure.

Then shuck out the money to purchase one that big and they will use it [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif[/img]

it makes sense to me that if they are gonna make the field one of the best around why not put the money in to get a tarp for it im not knocking the college but it just makes sense,

Because they invested in a treatment agent (That is what I call it b/c I don't know the technical name) before the season started to "clean" and help preserve the field from weather. If you go onto the field it is not the best in the area for a turf field imo. They are having to glue the seams back together from the wear and tear. Give it another 5-7 years and they will have to overhaul it or even replace it.
