    RPI 2026-27: Houston Field House, We Have Lift-off!

    In something of a scheduling oddity, RPI and Hobart played the same two non-league opponents, Utica and Brockport, the last two weekends. Hobart lost to Utica, but only by 7 points (RPI lost to them by 24). Hobart beat Brockport, 27-14 (RPI lost to them by 35). If RPI is only a 1-point...

    Hope Guo's professors pass him. It'll be tough for him to stay eligible if they don't. :)

    Didn't there used to be a nice salt dome or something over in Schenectady? :rolleyes:

    RPI 2026-27: Houston Field House, We Have Lift-off!

    By "exciting," do you mean there's a chance we'll have someone score more than 8 goals and/or 22 points?

    RPI 2026-27: Houston Field House, We Have Lift-off!

    Tony, thanks for the rundown. I haven't been to an RPI home football game since they played at '86 Field. It's a long trip from Carlisle to Troy. But it's not out of the question that I might make that trip one of these days. It's good to know what I can expect if i do come I note that I...

    RPI 2026-27: Houston Field House, We Have Lift-off!

    I went back and loaded the YouTube livestream again and it worked for the second half. Don't know why it didn't work for the first. RPI dominated the second half and retains the Transit Trophy after winning, 35-7. An unusual statistic - even though they lost by four touchdowns, WPI had...

    RPI 2026-27: Houston Field House, We Have Lift-off!

    You actually see something, Ralph? I am still getting nothing but buffering. At halftime, RPI leads, 14-7. It should be 14-0, except for an extremely ill-considered roughing the punter penalty with 30 seconds left in the half, which gave WPI an opportunity they should not have had. A source...

    RPI 2026-27: Houston Field House, We Have Lift-off!

    I guess theoretically, there will be a livestream of the game. I was hoping there would be a pregame show, where Kurt or somebody would tell us a little bit about who's on the roster. I clicked on the link to the livestream 12 minutes ago. It is now 2 minutes to game time, and all that I've...

    RPI 2026-27: Houston Field House, We Have Lift-off!

    This is not RPI-specific, but I assume everybody else trying to access the forums on this site (and multiple other sites) is getting bombarded with popups inviting us to "C0ntinue Here" or "Click Here to C0ntinue," with a zero replacing the letter o. There doesn't seem to be any earthly reason...

    RPI 2026 Off-Season: Please Pardon Our Appearance As We Upgrade This Area

    In my student days, which date back to before the ubiquitous Internet and even before the ubiquitous cell phone, I was the statistician for RPI's basketball team. One year, we were scheduled to play Drew University in Madison, NJ. Our schedule said the game was to begin at 2 PM, so we boarded...

    RPI 2026 Off-Season: Please Pardon Our Appearance As We Upgrade This Area

    Looking at the fall sports schedule, I see that RPI has six home football games scheduled. If you like early starts, you'll like this schedule - all six of them are scheduled to start at 12:00 noon. I also glanced at the women's field hockey schedule, which lists them as playing at Hamilton in...

    I wasn't sure what to think when I saw the picture and read it as "ASS RANKING," but I guess there's a "CL" that didn't make it inside the left margin. :)

    Dr. D, I am having a hard time figuring out what the column headings for this chart should be. Could you clarify, please?

    Thanks. At least that satisfies (a) "Willing to come to Troy." Not too sure about the (b) part.

    Homecoming is scheduled for the second weekend in October this year. A lot of schools try to schedule Homecoming for a weekend when the football team will be hosting a team they can be expected to beat, so the returning alumni can leave with good feelings after seeing a win. But since RPI's...

    RPI's baseball and softball teams are currently participating in the Liberty League tournament. The baseball games are being played at RIT, which is a member of the Liberty League in multiple sports (as I type, RPI is leading St. Lawrence, 8-2, in the seventh inning :)). The softball games...

    Last time I was there was for the Brown playoff series in 2013, and my last previous visit had been quite a long time before that. I know the band was in its current position in the northeast corner of the seating area, so the stage must have been gone. Guess I just didn't take careful note...

    It's been more than a decade since I last went to a game at the Field House and I suppose there have been many changes since then. I got an e-mail from the Rensselaer Alumni Association today, including an article about the origin of the Big Red Freakout. The article is accompanied by a...

    On the TV broadcast, after UMD's first goal, the camera panned to two fans standing up and cheering enthusiastically, and the announcers explained that these were the parents of the Plante brothers, who had combined on that goal. It was nice to see that the person sitting directly behind them...

    For those who are planning to attend the games in Albany tonight, I'd be interested in knowing what kind of a fan following Penn State might have. I know the media around here devote an enormous amount of attention to Penn State football, and the football team has a huge following wherever they...
