This is it. Today is the day when the Ice Hogs take on Alabama. Remember what's at stake: the Hogs are two points behind Alabama in the standings so a win tonight ties things up. Then, a win tomorrow secures the Hogs' third consecutive SEC-West regular season title. Bring a friend and get to the rink tonight at 7:30 pm!!

Jersey update? Are they in yet, and when is the team going to debut these things?

They ship next week. $:-\$ They will have them for the SEC Tournament, though.

Oh, and there was some confusion with UATV. They were booked to stream tomorrow nights game, but misunderstood and didn't realize there is one tonight. As of 3 pm Arkansas time they were scrambling to get their gear set up. Here's to them pulling it off...

Well, t'would appear we are beating them 2-0 2nd period. Go Hogs!

HoneyBakedPiglet · « **Reply #8 on:** February 03, 2012, 08:42:12 PM »

Hogs up 4-1, video keeps cutting out so not sure what happened.

HoneyBakedPiglet · « **Reply #9 on:** February 03, 2012, 08:45:41 PM »

Now Hogs up 4-2 in 2nd period.

We're winning, and that's all I can tell at the moment. I know that Oliver and Sundstedt have scored, but info is dicey.

Judas. This reminds me of driving up into the mountains in Colorado and stringing a spool of wire into a tree just to listen to the fucking Texas game. And this is the fucking Texas game.

FUCK BAMA

That's good news.

Hoping to make the drive up there tomorrow to see game 2. Would be my first hockey game - amazing how much more interest I have in all of this thanks to the Woopig jersey fundraiser. Awesome stuff.

Thanks for the link

I see our guys aren't afraid to put the gumps on their asses

Sounds like we have the official Hog pep band playing and Craig O'Neil announcing. (And the band is playing the same tired songs.)

HoneyBakedPiglet · « **Reply #14 on:** February 03, 2012, 09:12:27 PM »

And the third period ~~kicks off~~ ~~tips off~~ is under way with the Hogs leading 4-2.

HoneyBakedPiglet · « **Reply #15 on:** February 03, 2012, 09:43:04 PM »

Hogs were up 4-2 with 1 minute left when the Bama feed went off air. Lots of keep away in the 3rd period but the Ice Hogs were definitely not afraid to hit a motherfucker in the mouf.

nordlaw · « **Reply #16 on:** February 03, 2012, 09:44:10 PM »

Hogs win!!! Hell yes.

YES.

Win tomorrow and a good showing in the SEC tourney = a free pass to Nationals.

Nice work tonight, fellas.

Well done hogs. Don't let up.

CharlieHog · « **Reply #19 on:** February 04, 2012, 08:02:49 AM »

It's $6 to get in, $2 for students. Not sure how much for kids.

Last night's game was INCREDIBLE. Best crowd I have ever seen at one of our games, it was absolutely packed. When the puck dropped the seating was full and there was still a long line of people waiting to get tickets. It ended up with tons of people standing behind the seating area, and the rink was completely ringed with fans, which made it pretty loud when they started beating on the glass.

Bama came out and thought they could push us around, which obviously didn't work because we aren't some crappy team. We went up 2-0 pretty easily. They backed off a little in the last two periods and started playing better. It was really a great game.

It got pretty chippy, and the refs were calling it pretty tight. Lots of penalty box time.

It was on the news last night too. http://www.5newsonline.com/news/kfsm-ice-hogs-hold-on-to-dreams-of-third-consecutive-championship-20120203,0,7225704.story

Should be another great crowd tonight.

Here's a panorama I took. Didn't turn out perfect but you get the idea: http://i.imgur.com/7dmWz.jpg

Excellent!! What time does the puck drop tonight?
Are cameras allowed?

Cool that KFSM is giving them coverage but how the hell do you leave tonight's game time out of the story? Judas.
