That was a fun game to watch, I'm sure it was excellent to attend. There were a ton of people there and the fans were even crazy early in the morning for College Gameday.
You've got some great shots of the stadium itself, and I especially like how you incorporated the various ambient elements into the photos.
But boy, you weren't joking about the long part. I saw the thread title, opened it up, and though "epic post" was more fitting."
;)
Good read though. Thanks for the whole write up.

Interesting story and great quality to the action shots. I'm wondering what your keeper rate was for those. I realize it was dark but even 1/320 is too slow for peak action. Also, consider a fisheye for those wide angle stadium shots. Would have had more impact if they weren't truncated.

Jason...fantastic story, excellent write up, incredible images. Very nicely done, enjoy that new camera.

edit: Since you were tight on cardspace, probably moot to ask, but: did you record any video clips?

No, I have not tried video yet. Hoping to do that at the next game and hoping to have some more memory to bring along.

Have they started with dual card slots on the newer Pro-sumer models? I love having two cards in my cameras at the same time. Usually run a pair of 8gb or an 8GB Cf and 4GB sd. Makes life much easier.

Nope...That's one thing I'd like to have on mine.
