MAC ATTENDANCE AVERAGES AS OF SEPTEMBER ELEVENTH

OHIO-24,545 (Pitt brought maybe 250 fans)
Central Mich.-22,212 (More than if played at Indiana)
Toledo-19,502 (How many people does Toledo have?)
Ball State-17,460 (Decent crowd for bad tem)
Miami U.-16,956 (Homecomming and perfect weather)
Kent State-6,228 (Most Kent alumni are within a 45 mile radius)
Eastern Mich.-5,628 (1-AA game of the week)

Those numbers do not surprise me at all. OU has found a great marketing team and it is paying off. They are spending money and look at what it got them. This should put a black mark on the other 11 teams in the MAC as well as the conference office. You cannot tell me OU is getting this results with the same old stuff we at BG have seen so many times. Kudos for being innovative.

Walking around campus a couple hours before the game, you could tell there was a different feel in the air. It still wasn't a Big 10 or SEC type atmosphere, but it was much, much better than what I've felt for the last couple decades. Then walking down Richland toward Peden...wow. A big crowd with real buzz! The stadium had more energy (and almost as many people) 45 minutes before the game than we usually have for entire games. By the time kick-off arrived (and what a kick-off it was...) the place was absolutely nuts. I actually got some chills just looking around and listening to the crowd. It was an atmosphere I feared I'd never see in Peden. I'm just jealous that Friday night was the new freshman class' first exposure to OU athletics. Unbelieveable.

Those are not attendance averages. A one game count does not an average make.

TOLEDO HAS PLAYED TWO HOME GAMES. BOWLING GREEN COULD OUTDRAW TOLEDO ON THE SEASON.

CAPS LOCK IS AWESOME

LMFAO

Toledo has played two home games...they had 20,000 some the first game and 19,000 something the second. The first was on a Thursday against a I-AA team and last night was played when the Mudhens were playing at home with a playoff sellout of 10,000 fans...I am sure this doomed any hopes of a good crowd.

I am looking for close to 24,000 for BG's first game...unless we get rain.

And to all you bubeye fans...their national title hopes are now gone, so leave your TV's and radios at home please and support your home team.

Not quite. still in top 10. georgia looks weak. LSU & Tennessee will lose...Notre Dame beat Pitt...Ohio beat Pitt,,UM looked bad against NIU Notre Dame beat UM so maybe UM is just terrible notre Dame will lose a game or several..PLUS they are going to lose to USC... Texas is good,but i personally dont think they will win their conference..too many teams for them to get through plus a conference championship....

basically what I am saying is losing to #2 Texas in just the 2nd game of the year is a damn good time to lose the game. OSU is good, they kicked texas's ass all night they just failed to score the 7 too many times and settled for 3 and it came back to bite em. dissappointing but an impressive effort. Tressell will fix that problem. its wide open and too many teams in the 8 spots ahead of OSU that DO NOT look too impressive.

by the way i am still waiting for Florida to play a college team instead of these glorified high school teams before I get a read on how good Meyer's boys really are.

not too mention we should be worried about how bad we have been playing and not how osu lost to texas. I think BG is going to have a very tough time winning the MAC this year if they play like this. We are gooing to lose atleast 4 games if this crap continues. One of those losses will be to some crap team that is going to suprise us.

Get mad and tell me how wrong you think I am. I dont care. I'm just saying that I won't be suprised if it happens if things continue to go the way they are going.

Every time you post you reiterate my hatred for anything associated with tOAMU.

THIS IS A BOWLING GREEN STATE UNIVERSITY FALCONS MESSAGE BOARD - DON'T COME HERE TO RATIONALIZE HOW YOUR BUCKEYES ARE GOING TO VIE FOR THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.

If you want to do it, Grant has been so kind as to create an "other schools" forum for you to do this in. And before you even say "Well, redwingtom was egging me on by talking bad about my suckeyes," no, no he didn't. He was in fact talking to BOWLING GREEN fans like YOU who care more about that school down south. Not one thing you said in this post had anything whatsoever to do with BGSU. At no point in your rambling did come anywhere close to a coherent thought. We are all dumber for having listened to you. May God have mercy on your soul.

I think we'll lose 12 games and be forced to squat naked in the cold November mud....

And the team will choose "Man of Constant Sorrow" as the theme song for the end of the year video.

as part of my rambling...the whole last two paragraphs were about BG.
