Blue v. Gold Scrimmage

[El Guerrero 2]

Who attended this event last year? Is it worthwhile? Does the team actually scrimmage or is it more of an open practice?

Who would win in a 1X1 Vander vs Ben?

I enjoyed it last year. It was an actual scrimmage with refs and all though only 24 minutes of game time. I wrote a recap for painttouches last year: https://painttouches.com/2022/10/09/quick-observations-from-1st-annual-blue-vs-gold-scrimmage/#. It's funny reading some of the commentary on players and seeing how it played out over the season.

Do you plan on going again and writing a similar recap? We thank you in advance

If these are teams for today's scrimmage, on paper it's a complete mismatch.  Our three best from last year (Tyler, Kam, Oso) on the same team?  Strange way to setup teams if you're looking to make it competitive, which how team scrimmages are usually arranged to do.

Did you get this somewhere or did you make it up?

Released by Marquette. It's their top offensive team against some of their top defenders.

I guess they know what they are doing but I'm not as disappointed that I can't make it given these lineups. 

[BCHoopster]

Is the scrimmage at noon or do they do drills for an half hour or so?

Another marketing department failure

I'm sure they're devastated

I'm pretty sure the coaching staff knows what they are doing, and can switch players around if need be.

[HutchwasClutch]

I was just making an observation and asking.  Thank you Sultan for your answer.

The scrimmage last year was also lopsided.  Doesn't matter, still will be a great opportunity to see the team and probably a better viewing than the open practices imho.

This was last year scrimmage recap: https://painttouches.com/2022/10/09/quick-observations-from-1st-annual-blue-vs-gold-scrimmage/

I am assuming the answer is no, but is there going to be a stream?

TKO/Kam/Oso were on blue last year

Stevie/Sean/Gold were on gold last year

The remaining six are either new or were injured for the scrimmage last season.

So how are tickets acquired?

I think you just show up

Early scrimmage reports indicate early camp reports were correct
