Cortaca - November 16 Metlife

Cortland Red Dragons take on the Ithaca College Bombers.

Game has been played since 1930 "the biggest little game in the nation"

Goal is to shatter the D3 College Football attendance record.

I am seeing tickets for 25.00.

Should be a lot of fun.

Great but little know rivalry!

My son was an assistant S&C coach at Ithaca. Both schools are top D3 football schools. This is an intense rivalry that has resulted in rioting after the games. I'd love to go to this if I can get out there.

Are high fiving each other for moving this off campus. The game has been a bit of an afterthought for a lot of the students.

Afterthought to the partying that is.

is my boy. One of my son's great friends from when they were in 4th or 5th grade. Played a lot of hoops together. In 3 years Will broke most of, if not all of the receiving records at IC. This will be his 4th year.

Not saying he will make an NFL roster. But at 6-3, 215/220, he's been working on his speed. He's got fantastic hands.

Hoping he gets a shot. He's also an Eagles fan so I'm really hoping he gets a shot in blue.

Off topic, sorta ... Justin Wheeler is another of my son's good friends. At St. John Fisher, plays MLB. D3, so he's on the light side, but he's a football player - around 6-1.5 and 220 or thereabouts. Played some AAU ball with us as well, but always has been a football guy. Was texted with him around the holidays about how many D3 guys started this last NFL season on rosters - it was 12.

Very small chance. But you never know.

Cortland. I ran into his Dad and he said the bloody mary's and mimosa's will be flowing at his tailgate.
