Yea apparently tickets to Bama-Wiscy and TAMU-ASU are not selling very well.

I think people like to watch college football games IN college football stadiums.

I think it's more that people are less and less inclined to travel to games as TV quality improves and ticket prices increase.

The ASU @ TAMU is probably because they believed it was a neutral site game and allocated too many tickets for ASU. I mean, fucking Houston is half way across the country from ASU.

Should be a good game though.

Yes I'm joking about it being a home game for TAMU (but it really kind of is).

I would guess that the percentage of people on college football forums that feel this way about their own local political boards is just about 100%. Horrible places in general no matter which way the general political lean of the fanbase is.
True, but I'd wager that the overall political lean of both OSU's and TTU's fanbases is pretty far right.

Oh well.

Less than 24 hours! I'm like a kid on Christmas Eve!

Thursday game at 6:00 pm against FIU is probably going to have a disappointing showing. =(

Something like 30k seems likely; however, my butt will be in the stadium for the start of college football!
Yeah 6pm is rough. Anyone not basically already in eastern Orlando will be late. I would say a 7 or 8pm kick is better, but we're on CBS Sports. Which guarantees at least a 4 hour game.

I think as long as students show up in force, we'll have a solid 34-35k. They have been much better about showing up lately.

Also, UW now plays football at Alaska Airlines Field at Husky Stadium. It's apparently the most lucrative naming rights deal in college sports.

I'm cool with that. They also bought the naming rights to our basketball arena.

Edit: $41M over 10 years.

Well, hope you guys tell me how today's football games go, I'll either be playing MGSV or falling asleep from having like 7 or 8 hours sleep the last 3 days.

It is Thursday, right?
