Yeah, I think the attendance at the WKU game was like 20 thousand something. I fully expect this game to have as many people or more.

Don't know...don't care...Besides, our attendance isn't low. The football team has a very selective, almost exclusive appeal

My guess is in the 12,000 to 14,000 range.

Depends on who considers Wyoming to be a "big" win. Perceptions might not be as great outside of BG-land.

That's the thing. Wyoming might possibly be worse than EMU and that's saying something. I doubt a 35pt win over a MWC bottom feeder will install much excitement for the game. All I can say is we had our chance to instill some major campus and regional/town fan excitement a couple of weeks ago with Minny and we blew it.

I think we will be between 19k and 20k strictly because it's homecoming so there will be a lot of people coming in. if it was just a regular game i think it would be about 15k to 17k, but hopefully our team has a great game so we can keep the attendance up around 20k.

That was going to be my number! I'll take 150,327 instead. We added a 2nd level of seats above both sides and also some on the SEBO. The Falcon Club tent is gone and there are 2 levels of seats there as well. If you've ever been to EMU, you know they have huge fan support. Because of this, people will also have standing room around all the sidelines and we will break the NCAA attendance record for a game. I think I nailed this prediction!

Realistically, I'll go with 18,532...

14,000. Below average opponent plus little excitement for the program this year.

I'll think there are about 19,000.

Announced attendance will be about 16,500.
